    I would like to get everyones opinion on the stadiums graphics, including....

    field textures and the crowds...

    I posted this on 2ksports.com and I wanted to see what you guys thought as well.

    I don't want this to be a 2k7 stadiums are horrible thread, I just want to see if people think like I am on this subject.

    I think that the stadiums & surroundings did not get the attention I was ecpecting from some of the previews. I don't mean accuracy I mean poly's. I don't feel that looking at this game, (besides the obvious amazing player models and great presentation) that the game looks much different than last year.

    I was really ecpecting the stadiums to come to life and look much more real, especially the buildings in the outfield view. I hate to say this but Madden has pretty nice (real) looking stadiums.

    As good as the player models look, they are almost too good for the rest of the games graphics. They can at most times look out of place, kinda like they were cut out and pasted on a back ground that is far less quality.

    When I play this game I love the way it plays (which is great) but while playing this great game all of the other visuals that don't live up to the player models make the games lasting appeal a little less for me.

    I think next year if they give us PGR type buildings, Madden type stadium graphics, continue on tweaking gameplay, add a behind the fielder camera angle and an innovative way to catch fly balls (by looking up at the ball) then this will be the best baseball game anyone could ask for.

    I would love to hear what you HDTV graphics freaks like me have to say. Thanks

    I don't have a problem with the way the stadiums look. I think the game looks great all around.

      For me it depends alot of the stadium where i have played. Like i played a night game at Shea and while it looked a little better than the demo it still looked kinda blah to me but then i play a day game at Detroit and the stadium looked alot better. Played at Milwaukee once and it looked somewhere inbetween.

      Frankly, the stadiums graphics are solid to me and to be honest wouldn't be high on my cons of the game. Would be in the solid but not awesome department.

        Speaking from the 360 retail version, not the demo.

        Some stadiums look better then others but all the stadiums look great. I thnk they did a really good job. The parking lot detail is amazing too... hit a home run out of shea stadium and you can see nicely rendered cars in the parking lot..nice touch.

        Day games with sun seem to really make the stadiums pop out at you, the lighting on the field, players, helmets, crowds look brilliant.

        I honestly cant complain, i mean its the best looking sports videogame i've ever seen, surpassing NBA2k7, Madden 360,etc... EASILY.

        They use HDR lighting ..so the backgrounds in the day look really really impressive. Sorta gives a very realistic lighting effect..hard to explain

            I did do some exhibitions of stadiums I'm interested in. Such as Coors Field-pretty nice stuff there. I use the Dodgers on Franchise-I think Dodger Stadium is one of the best in the business. It looks great, the details to the hills and Stadium are top notch-just don't see them enough. That is a nitpick. Overall,they did a great job on graphics although the camera seems "forced" focusing on the playing field more than the actual atmosphere. Oh well, they still didn't do a bad job this year at all.

              The orioles stadium is dead on. I love it. No complaints from me. I ahve heard people complaining about Dodgers stadium because of seat colors and some of the architect but is that really that big of a deal. Next year I'm sure they will polish it some more. IT will be interesting comparing the shows graphics to this game. Finally there are two next gen bb games to compare.

                To me, the only sports game that's done a better job of replicating stadiums is Madden on the 360. The stadiums in this game are beautifully well done!

                  LOL I think they look great. I was just thinking I wonder if Madden will ever look this good.

                    Looking around places in Quick Game, i was really impressed by KC's field. when batting and having the waterfalls in the background....kinda peaceful LOL. Being a Giants fan, they nailed Pac Bell Park. Boston and Baltimore look amazing also. no complaints here, though Shea is bland. I read a post from someone else though that the real deal is pretty bland in real life, so i guess they got it right lol

                      Its all about the lighting. Pretty much all the stadiums i have played in look fantastic during the day. But whenever there is an overcast sky, or it is a night game, the stadiums take a hit. I think the stadiums depend a little bit too much on good lighting. On their own they are mediocre.

                        About Pac Bell Park-I need to look at that ,one of my favorites. Plus,the wind there is the 10th man on the field there! lol. I'm looking forward to taking my Dodgers and going head to head with the Giants this year. Quite possibly the best rivalry in all of sports(IMO).

                          Oh I agree. But if this dodger team is anything in real life like they are in this game, the West is LA's too loose. I grew up a SF Fan from the Bay area but live in So Cal now, so watching LA do well hurts LOL. but that team is loaded now, and SF still doesn’t have anyone protecting Bonds (i mean Joe Young ;-) ) so, it will be fun to watch.

                            I'm a Mets fan, but being sick of playing with the team (I hate Shea and plus, they're too good in the game), I started a franchise with the Tigers instead. Their stadium is gorgeous.
                            The line must be drawn HERE! This far, no further!
