Re: MLB 09 The Show Screenshots (Playstation.com)

But, the fact of the matter is that the PS3 is a more powerful computing/graphics platform. If you are a tech guy, just look at the numbers.

I'm not a tech guy, so the numbers don't matter to me. I own both consoles. In terms of visuals, textures, framerate, and overall graphics the 360 always has a slight edge from what I have seen in playing games that come out for both consoles.

But when it comes to The Show, I couldn't care less how the bushes look in the OF. As long as the game plays great and the players, their uniforms, and the fans look good, I'm totally happy.

I had no problems at all with the graphics in '08. And they should be even better this year with another year under their belt and dynamic lighting.

Pitch Grips / Ball Rotation Detail
MLB 09 The Show details the different pitch grips and arm angles that a pitcher has when throwing each pitch. You’ll be able to draw distinction between 17 different pitch types (4 Fastball variations: four-seam, two-seam, cutter, and split; 6 Breaking Pitches: 10-4 curve, 12-6 curve, slider, sinker, slurve, and screwball; 4 Change-Ups: straight, circle, palm and fork; And 3 Specialty Pitches: Knuckle, Knuckle-Curve and Gyro)!

You know what that means right? The balls in play will have stitches and not just be white orbs. That is excellent news.

Re: New Screenshots!

I think you misunderstood what I was trying to get across.. I said I am "not thrilled" because I actually want more than what was shown and some videos of gameplay I never had a problem with graphics in the game. I thought the game looked great last year and I figure it will be better this year.

No worries. My post was more of a general statement to all those newbies that are bellyaching about the screenshots who have obviously never played the game, rather than a direct comment to you. It happens every year, and I just think people who get so heated and hateful over a handful of screenshots are ridiculous. Everyone who has played The Show in the past and are a fan of the series know that this game can't be beat, whether the bushes have rich textures or not. If a person chooses not to buy it because of their bias in the neverending 360 vs. PS3 debate, then that's their loss. My life will still move forward, and The Show will still be an amazing baseball simulation.
