    How is Retro mode any different from R.B.I. Baseball other than graphics? Did anyone ask for this? The graphics are still the same with a few tweeks. A handful of classic players doesn't interest me, classic teams and stadiums do. This tired old engine needs an overhaul. Why wouldn't Yankee Stadium be in there? Let me see Three Rivers, Riverfront or the Astrodome and I'll get excited. Really, this series has to evolve at some point. I'm sorry, but this Malibu Stacy with a new hat can sit on the shelf this year.

      I keep watching the trailer. I think I may be just a little excited for MLB The Show '17

        That pretty much sums up my thoughts.

          Retro Mode would be worth it if you had the option to use it in Online Play or Franchise mode. It would nice to maybe play 10 regular franchise games and then mix in a retro just to switch it up. But the way I'm reading it, it seems it's only an exhibition mode that can be played locally. And honestly, who is gonna use that more than 2 or 3 times? I just hope the defense and absolutely terrible non working throwing meter is fixed.

            With all the eye candy coming from the ps4 pro, I expected more. Not mad just a little disappointed. I hope I'm wrong

              Why is this such a big deal? I just don't get it.

                Russell does a fantastic job of promoting this game and selling new features.

                I'd like to see them fix game play in manage mode this year. I'm not expecting it but it would be a pleasant surprise.

Out side of lighting the game dose not look much different then it did on ps3. If you compare player faces the shows faces are way behind NHL and NBA 2k. Those 2 games at times look photo realistic where this game does not. So with game play being almost perfect if graphics are not going to be improved then what is there really left to do to make this game any better?
                    This is my view completely. I love this game but there are two areas that need to be addressed IMO - player faces/personalities/models, which you mention and franchise mode which is obviously not something they will tease in a trailer like this anyway.

                      I could look past player models and other stuff if they improve fielder movement so it doesn't feel so jerky "maybe that's just me?", improve more on franchise mode, and improve ball physics and eliminate alot of the dribbles in front of home plate and foul outs. I'm not very picky because for the most part the game is great.
                      Also, make RTTS more difficult, and your player grind more for improvement points instead of being mlb ready in only a year or so. Maybe after a calendar week, or month, your production is looked at and your allotted a certain amount of improvement points? Maybe not make it a high amount either.
                      I'm no expert, just my two cents..

                            Honestly who gives a crap about some retro mode? SCEA, you're getting truly boring! Big fan of the game but It's getting pathetic! No real innovation, nothing! U could have used the budget for that piss-poor of an excuse for an addition, retro mode for creating a team, relocate a team, or create a ballpark. Every year you talk about what made it and didn't make the ''cut list'' and u mean to tell me retro mode made it in over things that we actually ''want'' in the game? The trailer actually looks like every other trailer, The player models haven't changed since '10 or beyond, and honestly, stop saying crap about ''the lighting''! Every year, ''the lighting looks amazing'' is said about 500 times by you all. SO WHAT! Make a 3B be able to actually play defense, stop having my pitcher sac bunt into 5-4-3s or 3-6-4s, stop having the CPU execute hit and runs above a 90% rate, stop making me burn thru my pitchers b/c you all cant get stamina no way close to being right, stop having the CPU batter foul off 12-15 pithes JUST to get my pitch count higher, and for goodness sake-------DO SOMETHING WITH THE CAMERA ANGLE VS LEFTIES FOR PLAYERS WHO LIKE TO PLAY FROM THE ''OUTFIELD'' VIEW OR BEHIND THE PITCHER'S VIEW A LA WATCHING A GAME ON TELEVISION. But you all decided a retro mode should make the put in '17 list! SMH WTH

                              These overreactions to a one minute trailer are truly becoming comical at this point.



                              And to answer the question posed above...I give a "crap" about Retro Mode. Looking forward to playing it.
