Re: MLB 12 playable at Best Buy

Just got back from re-filming the 3 gameplay videos I lost earlier. Might be a few hours before they get posted. I want to back up the files incase I have another problem again. I'm sure they will be up sometime tonight for sure.

Again, each video is 1 full inning of CPU vs. CPU gameplay and each is over 10 minutes. One is almost 20 minutes! My arms were tired. lol.

Chicago White Sox vs. Minnesota Twins at Target Field.

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium.

Atlanta Braves vs. Miami Marlins at Marlins Park.

I got decent footage but the footage I had earlier that was lost was better. I'm sure you'll all still enjoy them though.

Props to my 7 months pregnant wife for coming with me and handling controller duties in between pitches. lol.

Braves!

Also.. Didn't realize it had been 5 years since the Braves won the NL East.. Thanks for that.. depressing!

I have to show some pride here and say this: My mets won the division in 2006 ending your 15 year streak of division titles. Had to say it.

The pitching motions are a huge little thing that is done amazingly...pulse pitching looks great...I love the pace of the game. Overlays...not shown too much in this video but in others have improved... well done. I just may have to push aside pys 2011!

Best Buy - Day #3...

Spend the 1st 10-mins tailoring the game to my liking... All-Star settings, zone hitting, puls pitching with all aids turned off etc.

One game... Mets (AI) & Pelfrey & Lincecum (ME) & the Giants

Sadley, I don't have much for you... Got caught in a pitching duel!

W: Pelfrey (4) - L: Lincecum (0) was out-hit 10-2 (couldn't be as patient as I would have liked, quite a few people looking to play)

NOTES: Lincecum 6.2 IP, 3 BB, 5 K, 88 pitches...

PRO'S - everything I've already mentioned & the new ATT&T lF wall graphics.

CON'S - "K's" no longer accumulate on the RF brick wall after strike outs ;-(

NORMALLY, I B---- about things that get removed from a series year after year, but thaw game is too darn good to care...

Thanks again for all the videos and the time people have taken to let us see MLB 12:The Show before March 6th. I hope every person who plays this game takes a few moments to ponder how Blessed we are to have both OS and SCEA. Without Russell and the developers, we would miss out on a lot of child-like fun and memories about America's Pastime.

I have gameplay footage of the Braves coming up later.

Gotcha! Here's hoping that they gave those two I mentioned new stances.

Can't say for sure if Chipper's is new, but Uggla's looks new.

Re: MLB 12 playable at Best Buy

I figured I would post some more of my gameplay impressions from today while waiting for my videos to upload.

Few tidbits:

1. Controller does rumble when you make contact with the ball.

2. Players still don't have their number on the back of their jerseys in the baserunner box in the upper right corner.

3. Catchers still don't take off their masks at the end of games when greeting the pitcher.

4. You don't always see stadium specific home run celebrations with every homer. Appears camera angles are switched up randomly. I could be wrong. Didn't see the Marlins whateveryoucallit go off when Logan Morrison took me deep.

When you play your first game when you get it, don't skip any cutscenes. There are some fantasic new on-screen overlays in the game. Most I won't mention. Gotta be a surprise. One that was surprising to me is the overlay showing the broadcasters names. It now shows a picture of each one of them as well. Santa Maria!! Haha.

Played a game with Phillies vs. Marlins at Marlins Park. Hit a fly ball with Shane Victorino to center field that Emilio Bonifacio misplayed. It went over his head allowing me to get to third for a triple. It was pretty neat looking.

So many nice new animations.

For my fellow Phillies fans: Cole Hamels pitching motion has been updated and it looks fantastic! Cliff Lee's is also greatly improved.

I love how Matt V. mentioned the Orioles' new orange uniforms. I love new commentary.

(Is now hoping for a mention of the Blue Jays' makeover and maybe something about Brett Lawrie?)

If you really feel that way then our job is done.

Not so fast, get variable weather with the OPTION of rain delays / rain outs in...............then you are done

Let me ask you something 13. Did you notice alittle lag on balls hit in play? I was just at the South Philly Bestbuy and they do have it on display now and it seemed alittle bit laggy to me on balls hit in play.
