That is what you call emotion...I am sure it happens even in a spring training game because it is a walk off hr.

This is a post season game in first inning and the announcer says. The ball is hit deep and not coming back...Up next Ryan Zimmerman.

Lame as hell specially for a pimped out mode called Post season where the only thing diff is the overlays.

You call talk about sports games needing to have better presentation and atmosphere yet for the show the excuses are everywhere. Dead air and no emotion in POst Season game on a hr. He called it like it was a back up infielder in a spring training game between royals and astros.

Somewhat true and funny! Post season mode looks like its more of true eye candy then true atomsphere and commentary:/ but it's still great but this is only a short video.. If a whole game is like this, then I won't be nearly as excited about reaching the postseason in franchise mode as I was looking at before hand

Who cares about the commentary. If the commentary is completely unbearable to you, it's easy to fix that problem. Mute your TV and listen to some music or the local sports radio station. I understand Matty V is a bit bland in the game, but do you honestly hang on every word he says? I know that when I am listening to Matty V while playing the game, I'm concentrating of what pitch to throw next or what the opposing pitcher is going to throw to get me out.

What concerns me more is what Flightwhite said in the impression thread:

"If there is a negative I would say its some noticeable stuttering at times during the game..."

As an Orioles fan I am lucky enough to have Gary Thorn call games every night as the play by play guy for the O's.


I agree though presentation has lacked for awhile now. I am sure the World Series Celebrations are the same. And they emphasized the towels in the playoff games for this year, when they had them last year too. This game needs some presentation overhaul.

I agree, the commentary needs alot of work. But hey, it could be worse, they could have Hawk Harrelson doing the play by play. Haha I'm teasing White Sox fans

I'm just sick of Matt V's voice. I've been listening to it since 2005 or so.

Half the time, I turn off commentary completely. The sounds of the game itself are terrific.

Wow; on the field looks like a stone cold roster update to me. Same pitcher/batter cutaways, same home run high-fives at home plate, same dull commentary. I was hoping to see a shot of the dugout greeting Harper after the home-run (as this game has always lacked that classic baseball image), or some more emotion in the booth, or something--but nope, just a rehash of the same stuff from last year.

I don't see this game as a major advancement on the field at all.

Commentary aside (and to me, it's not all that bad)...

I'm in love. Game looks amazing. It's obvious that it is pretty maxed out as far as what they can do on this console, but they find ways to make the game better and fresh with the little things.

Re: MLB 13 The Show gameplay video

They don't manage it ( This generation of consoles is not capable of having AI commentators with emotional behavior like they're watching a real game. ), but if you think they do, then alright.

You must not have played NBA 2K. Commentary is out of this world. Full of emotion.

Another person here who loves the Show (I mean, seriously, how many of us chose or switched to PS3 largely due to the Show, myself included) but dreads the commentary. I agree Matt V. is the problem...he is the driest of dry of all sports gaming announcers. Yes, the commentary is bad, and it's made even more glaring because the rest of the game is so well done. The commentary therefore falls victim to the rest of the game. What I do is either turn off Matt and listen to the others, or I just put Matt on for rivalry or playoff games, that way when he does come in it feels like a "special" situation ie. they put an extra announcer in the booth for the big game/game of the week.

I can understand that. All that requires is a voice recording with excitement behind it, but humanizing sports commentating in a video game won't be easy.
