I hope they don't go the realistic player graphics look because MLB the show will just kill them at that...they should do like the original graphics with a cartoon like exaggerated look but with fun, realistic play...you know, like the old RBI games.

What do you guys think? Agree with me?

I don't think it's going to go the cartoonish route. From a video that was posted a while back they were taking facial/head scans of Alfonso Soriano so I'd expect graphically they'll go with a realistic look.

I can't say I'd want them to go with the original style graphics but I'm really not that concerned with graphics as long as it plays a good game of baseball.

I'm with you on the cartoon graphics thing. A solid arcade baseball game like RBI gone by (or Bases Loaded or Baseball Stars 2 on the Neo Geo) would be a blast. Trying to make a sim that competes with The Show is a guaranteed skip for me.

No , First I think the shows player Models are old and tired looking after 4 years of the same build and sadly they will now look like a PS3 port to the PS4 but now in hi def though to me they look weird especially with ps4 hair and ps3 bodies , not a good morph as SCEA should have started with all new player models on the ps4 to max its full potential .

I hope RBI plays semi sim BUT fun is the key you know something that makes you wanna play more and not turn off the console in disgust like you not even part of the game at key moments .

I totally agree. I hope it looks/plays like the RBI games from when I was a kid. I only have time for one baseball sim, which will be The Show, but if RBI is a fun pick up and play game, I'll get it.

I'm in the same boat.

Other games that are in the same vein as The Show just don't do it for me....on any level.
That's why I can play OOTP.....or PowerPros.....it's a different feel altogether.

I'm hoping for a true revival of R.B.I.

Anything else would be a purchase(I own and will continue to own every baseball title produced)....but it just won't get much play time unless it completely blows me away.

Many times when I sit down to watch a game, I wish I could see exactly what everyone else can. Being visually impaired makes that impossible, but that's another reason why baseball is so awesome, you don't have to see it to get the picture. I like to say that baseball is the one game you can see on radio. I started listening to the Yanks when I was 6 in 96, and haven't missed a game to date. These days though, it's a lot different. Back then, I always used my good old pocket radio, now I can use mlb.tv and watch the game with sinced radio on a roku or ps app.

If you don't mind me asking, what is it that you are able to see?

As for me, graphics don't mean much of course, but I still would like it to be a realistic game. Awesome gameplay, sound, stuff like that. Kind of like All-star baseball for ps2.

I agree. I'm tired of playing so called sims that are so animation driven that I may as well set the game to cpu vs cpu for all the input I can give.

See sims are great for watching but Im not a watcher Im a player and a player has gotta play

I think it is very disingenuous when playing a game for it to be tilted one way or another for the sake of sim , I mean at that point why even play because your not actually even playing right ?

I think there's a happy medium.
You should have some control, but at the end of a 162 game season Trout and Cabrera should be in the top 5 for BA while guys like Arencibia should always be fighting the Mendoza line.

I agree with you that it shouldn't be nothing BUT sim so no matter how good you are, or how well you work a count, poor hitters should always be poor.
But I think there's a happy middle ground.

That's why I loved 2K's Hitters Eye. Even if you're a bad player, Hitters Eye can help you out when hitting with a premier stick.

This is why I like psy so much. Good hitters have a larger cursor making it easier to hit with them than a poor hitter who will have a smaller cursor. This way the good hitters will have a higher avg. than poor hitters all the while giving the user ultimate control.

I guess its just how the coding is implemented and how you play but with the Show I find it FEELS very predictable or force at key moments regardless of who its favors hu or cpu but with EA NHL 14 if you can find the proper sliders which isnt easy the game can be incredible , semi sim and very fun .

EA NHL and the show are very similar IMO coding wise but as much as I like the Show its just little fun on a replay value over time so hopefully RBI can bring some fun back with real player interaction based off of real stats and attributes and not some randomness that makes little sense at times other than saying thats just baseball as a answer/excuse for poor AI and coding .

I like alot of what MLB 2k did later on but too little to late and visually I couldnt even play it as it hurt my eyes and thats sad as MLB 2k7 looked better than most , I hate Ben Brinkman .

See like with NHL I can understand things adjust things and feel like I played a role win or lose questionable or not and have a good taste in my mouth but with the Show not so much .
