[jvalverde88]

Check out the first MLB 12 The Show screenshots, featuring the newly unveiled uniforms for the Orioles, Blue Jays, Padres, and Marlins available next season.

The players include Adam Jones (Orioles), Mark Reynolds (Orioles), José Bautista (Blue Jays), Chase Headley (Padres), Mat Latos (Padres), and Hanley Ramirez (Marlins).

Those stadiums and background buildings seem to look a lot refined.

Looks great as usual, now we need some Vita screens.

Re: First screenshots of MLB 12: The Show

Looking pretty good so far, sans some personal setbacks, but otherwise there seems to be a lot more "depth" and minute detail in some areas. I particularly like the look of the gloves and faces, right now.

We aren't going to get anything earth-shatteringly different, so anyone who is expecting that will of course be sorely disappointed. ESPN doesn't give us much though with these small screens, especially when the edges look to be a bit sharpened on their end of the production. Stadium scenery also looks incredibly high-resolution (looking at the second Padres shot).

Grass textures seem to be the same. Was hoping we'd get more detail in that area. Looks nice though.

Good to see the new Uni's, although those Miami ones look ALOT worse on than they do just in the marlins shop lol
Game itself looks the same for the most part but thats not a bad thing... Once its in action that could be the difference

Same here. But I think it is just unrealistic to expect major improvements on the graphical part when a game is allready pushing the limits of a console's hardware that's almost 6(!) years old.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Screenshots

Looks like some new cleats, see Marlins photo, and maybe new gloves, see Bautista photo.

Nice shots and boy are the Marlins uniforms ugly.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Screenshots

Great shot here of Joey Bats going deep.



Looks very similar to 11 but for good reason - that was a gorgeous game.

Looking forward to more high-res shots soon.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Screenshots

Like everyone here is saying MLB The Show already looks great! However I can't lie when I say I am maybe "just a tad" disappointed with these first set of screenshots.

Other then some small new additions to the stadiums like for example at Citizens Bank Park I see they have the new HD JumboTron and they added the 329 to the left field foul pole and also moved the 334 a little more to the right of the left field foul pole. I am very happy that Sony keeps making the stadiums more and more accurate with every version!

But I guess my reason for the "slight" disappointment is I expected the lighting and grass texture to be improved quite a bit. But to my eye it pretty much looks just like MLB 11 The Show. But of course these screenshots are so small so I really should not be judging how the game looks until I see a lot bigger screenshots.

It also looks like once again no Ball Boys/Ball Girls on chairs down the left and right field lines again. Looks like this will not happen until Playstation 4.

Also looks like no new Ads real or fake to any of the stadiums.

And no real LED Ribben boards in the stadiums.

But again these screenshots are way too small for me to really even say I am disappointed.

As long as the Presentation has had a major upgrade to reflect more of a true TV Network broadcast then I will be very happy. Even if the lighting and grass texture still look the same and some of the little things I was hoping for are still a no show.

I am looking forward to seeing bigger screenshots and hearing about all the new improvments that have been added to MLB 12 The Show.

Thank you to Sony and ESPN for giving us an early peak at MLB 12 The Show!

Re: MLB 12 The Show Screenshots

I am not 100% sure but I think fielders now close their glove when making a catch.

In this screenshot it kind of looks like the fielders glove is almost closed. I don't remember seeing this in MLB 11 The Show.

I totally agree, most of the stadium detail seems identical to last year. Would be great if we could customize the ads in the stadium, or at least choose what goes where.
I hoped to see Updated grass patterns and darker overall color palette... But I guess we'll see as these were only the first screens.

Great to see Jose Bautista with a beard looks much better!
