Yes, thanks ramone...please tell me you guys are giving us the option to turn off that clutter on the screen. The CPU pitches, power swing and all that clutter ihas been a sore spot for me since the ps2 days.

Nope, this is something that only the hard core really wants. In every focus test we have ever done for the game we always hear the game is to hard and there isn't enough info given to the user.

Looks very nice.

Russell any chance of adding the Pitchers Pitch Count to the Scorebar at the top of the screen?

Or somehere else on the screen so you don't need to press the Select button anymore to see it

No, but the energy bar is tied to his pitch count it will dynamically update after every pitch. There will also be a little black line that lets you know when he hits the 25% energy mark.

L1+ O INT seems to be missing.

It animates now from pitch out to intentional walk.

Im not sure how I feel about the pitcher energy and confidence. as an opponent should we really be privy to that information?

It's always been in the game all you had to do was hit select to see it. Confidence was also shown just not for the pitcher overall just his overall control over his pitches.

I think he just meant a toggle option, not as an "only" thing or as a default. We can disable baserunner windows, after all.

Main reason I'd like it turned off myself is because I own a plasma. Otherwise, yeah, I don't mind not having clutter (as an option for myself, of course).

Maybe i just don't have a keen eye but it all looks kind of the same to me. Except of course for few new info boxes on the screen. Would like to see some 3D grass like in NCAA but that might have to be for a future title. Can't wait to see the new broadcast presentations/stat overlays though.

The score bar, pitch info, and swing info box is completely redesigned new art. The default camera view is also a very big change from last year. It would be great if someone could take a picture using the same teams from MLB 11 so you can see side by side just how different the art is.

As far as 3D grass not going to happen anytime soon it takes up to much memory.

Here is one.

Oops not the same team but you can at least see the differences.

love the new score bar. It takes less real estate as well.

I don't know if it's just the camera, but it looks like the corner outfielders close the gaps a little bit more than they used to, as opposed to hugging the lines as much.

If that's even the case, hopefully [alongside the new ball physics] this will mean more groundballs down the line will slow up for extra bases, and the only balls that can split the gaps are the liners.

Is that cursor batting or just the pci? Looks good!

That is the new PCI graphic.

Awesome eye candy! The lighting looks so life-like

Re: MLB 12 The Show Screenshots - Your New Default Camera View and Other Tidbits

Cool...I wonder if some form of cursor batting will make it in?
