I plan on watching at least one more time to try to catch some of the smaller details, but the new camera cuts between pitches immediately jumped out at me. It really adds some life to the game. I dig it.

The video looks good, and I'm looking forward to the game, but...

Not only is "Generic 1" pitching animation still in the game (WHY?) but both pitchers were using it.

I know it's probably just a placeholder on an early build for those pitchers, but I was really hoping that awkward, old-fashioned animation would be gone completely, or at least no longer the default one for pitchers that don't have one assigned to them.

That new broadcast presentation is great. I love it. Adds so much intensity and realism to the game. Hats off, guys! More vids, please!!!

I really like the new pitching method. It's what I've wanted from this game almost to a tee, so I'm defiantly going to be using it. I'll try the new analogue stick method, but I was hoping that it would be a bit more like PYS than the circle that we have now.

The cutscenes look great, the game looks like it flows well, and SCEA might be getting another $60 from me this year.

In my opinion, all the OSDs, splash screens, start menus are perfect!

Wow...really liking what im seeing. Love the true broadcast feel as well as pulse pitching. I didn't think I was going to try pulse pitching but I think im going to give it a fair try. I also like the way the ball came off of Howards bat towards the end of the video...i can see the new ball physics.

Can't Wait!!!!

the game looks awesome. but, where is the other half of the bill on latos' hat? that thing looks like one of those military hats.

[adambaseball]

also, i love that they are further tweaking batting stances. some of them last year were so far off that i edited almost everybody's, including players with their own "signature" stance. rolen and bruce's are looking much better.

Hmm, Russ is a closet REDS fan I see...well, WAS I came away TOTALLY impressed from what I saw just now. As usual, The SCEA team delivers again. Props fellaz

[EnigmaNemesis]

I love how Howard didn't roll his wrists and the swing was actually an opposite field hit animation.

[DetroitStyle]

I thought they added fielders closing their gloves when making catches. Didn't see it in the video, instead I saw the catcher leave his glove open when receiving the pitch lol. Also, Cliff Lee looks crosseyed. But that was more humorous than anything.

Overall looks great, I'm getting pretty excited.

Loving the presentation. The replay screenwipes looks so much more 'broadcast authentic.' The cutscenes in between pitches looks great and seems to be a more polished, refined version of another game that had them back in 2009. The flash is still there though at certain points which is very disappointing IMO.

Not a fan of the new pitching. Seems more like a gimmick. But heck, at least SCEA are not forcing us to use this as the only mode. Can't wait till we get some better vids with a look at a newer version of the game.

Hmm, I wonder if the pulse effect, w/ pulse overlay off work on classic pitching too? I can't see how that would work now that i think about it...unless by dual shock maybe
