Were any of you four picking up the Vita version? Any info about that would be awesome.

Congrats on getting the game early guys!

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

not really sure what you are asking?? I always thought all PS3 games had some type of install don't they???

My bad. I was thinking the Show was allowing you to download the game to your HD so you wouldn't need the disk... I forgot about that

Thanks for taking the time guys!

1) Hows the analogue hitting? Is it satisfying to hit that bomb? Is it smooth?

2) Simple one: Are you guys having fun?

Hey guys who have the game, I just want to say thanks to all of you for taking the time to ask questions.

Presentation- When the game starts it shows your defensive positions just like last year, but they show the ball being thrown around the horn...which is really cool.

This note from bluengold34_OS from the Impressions thread: I don't understand what it means.

1. Haven't touched it nor am I a fan of it.

2. HELL YEAH I am!!!! HUGE IMPROVEMENT imo over last years.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

Can someone check out Turner Field and possible take screenshots of the new Coke bottle in left field and of the retired numbers in left field? Also, can you check to see if the tomahawk sign above the jumbotron flashes after a double, triple, walk or RBI...and if so, how long does it flash for? does it flash until the next pitch is thrown to the new batter? Does the Coke bottle shoot fireworks after a home run? Are there sparks that come out of the sign above the right field bullpen after the Braves strikeout a batter? Quickest way to check all these would be to control the away team and let the CPU strike you out, and just don't throw the CPU out and let them get a RBI or double or something. Thanks in advance if you can check on Turner Field at all for me.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

I'm interested in what you guys think of the "hurry up" animations in the field. I know every Show game I've ever played has had a gigantic problem fielding bunts. The catcher would always needlessly spin or double tap his glove, resulting in a free base runner.

So I guess my question is: Have you guys noticed this yet? More specifically, how does the catcher play bunts or short choppers?

Thanks a lot guys!

catch212 I haven't noticed it yet probably because I wasn't thinking about it but I will keep an eye out for it and report back.

What all does the online code include? Is it just for online or will you need it for Roster Updates?

What is the difference in content between the 5g and 10g downloads?

Could someone explain the difference a little more clearly?

Thanks.

The more information you get on the hard drive the less it has to read off the disk while playing resulting in less time waiting for the game to load etc.

In other words - faster load times. You WANT the bigger install.

Go to page 64 of the playable at Best Buy thread. I posted some screenshots I took of Citi Field in there the other day.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

For the people who have the game. What is this "secret" game mode or whatever it was that everyone was talking/asking about? It was in a few threads but I don't see anything about the secret ebing revealed lol
