yes. Typically companies will make you wait until the game is released before giving you the pre-order bonus, especially one such as this.

I also think that Amazon.com is doing the same deal.

Alright thanks, I would rather go through amazon, but there is a GS right next to my work so I'll probably just go there.

And Amazon isn't doing the same deal, at least not from what I can tell.

I am trying to find out... would be unlike them to have GS only. I refuse to shop there personally.

at one point it was offered on Amazon, because my buddy checked to see and then, I thought, pre-ordered it from them, but he is telling me he didn't.

I have personally never seen it offered on Amazon... that is why I have asked Ramone and ask earlier the week it went up for presale. But I think they were a little stagnant at getting the stadium bonus up as well last year, so my fingers are crossed this is the same effect.

I will find out though.

I guess. Not sure what he means/meant.

I would guess MomentOfTruth means the square-shouldered, fire-hydrant-shaped player models from the PS2 years once again appear unchanged. And because the player models are tied to things like swing mechanics/animations and the over-sized strikezone, again from the game's PS2 years, it's a good guess all that remains unchanged as well. It's not a difficult question to understand as many of us have been anticipating and expecting changes to the game in these areas for three years now.

But that doesn't make sense. The main thing the developers have touted (with visual evidence) are the player model overhauls. And yes, with that will come more lifelike animations. Last year you would have had a case, this year not so much.

I haven't called in sick for so long... My sick hours have accrued like crazy! But something happens to me every year and I don't know why... I get the flu around midnight of March 8 and it can last for the whole week. It's a nasty thing but yeah, those sick hours are going to shrink when this game comes out.

All I've seen is the video in this thread, and to me the player models look almost the same as the previous years. The shoulders are too long and too square, and the majority of players' bodies are too squat.

I'm not talking about cosmetic tweaking of the player models, which may have happened. I'm referring to the dialogue the developers had on this forum a couple of years back, where they stated that creating all-new player models was a massive undertaking. Something about having to also re-write the code for the animations, the strikezone, and even the core gameplay itself. Yes, it appears the animations have been improved somewhat, both last year and this year. But it also looks like they haven't undertaken to rewrite what essentially is the core programming that was used back in the PS2 days. Which again is what I believe MomentOfTruth was talking about.

Go to page 1 and start the video up. Pause at the first frame or so where it shows Wilson on the mound. His body appears to be short and stumpy, and his shoulders are wide and square. That's an example of the PS2-style player models that were carried over to the PS3 version of the game back in 2007. And it appears they're still in the game this year. And if they're still in the game, it no doubt means the swing animations and over-sized strikezone are as well.

Agreed. If you do not see it in those comparisons, then you are refusing to see it. Plain and simple. Do not need to argue about this, this year. They are dead on to human proportions in real life. Case closed.
