I guess if I got right up on top of the screen and squinted I could pick up some of the stuff you see...

You're 50+. You do that anyway. What you talkin' about?

My friend has the PS3 version, me the 360, but I think you look at things with much too critical an eye. I guess if I got right up on top of the screen and squinted I could pick up some of the stuff you see, but you are way to critical of everything.

I don't know... perhaps I just have that good of an eye.

Play ESPN Major League Baseball again for Xbox. Three/four years ago, we were spoiled with zero jaggies and 60 frames per second. Since then, we've downgraded. In my opinion, these two features are far more important than jersey movement and self-shadowing when we're concerned with visuals. Again, it's probably just me, but hey... I am me (or me is I, or something)... and I'm not going to be able to change that. I would like to see a video of The Show for PS3 and see if they got these two things right; perhaps it will incline me to buy a PS3. Note that I would still buy 2K7 the instant I got a PS3, but it wouldn't be my reason for buying one.

If they choose to step up in graphics next year, I hope it's with anti-aliasing and improved framerate. Again, I don't know what goes into that, but I'm praying for it to be done. I am in no way squinting and looking really hard for these things. When you're pitching from the BTP cam and want to see the player's face, you see a lot of jagged lines instead of a face. I mean, it's just hard to play with. And like I said, controls were sluggish as well. Just small things can really hurt or help the experience of a game, and like I said... you would notice the difference if they make the difference.

Wow, sometimes I feel like I am playing a different game. For real guys I'm I missing something. Does this game have bad frame rate during gameplay, because I am not seeing that one bit.

I agree, I have the ps3 version, and I myself see no slowdown during gameplay, at all. Yeah I see some slow down when in cut sceens between innings, like of the fans, but who cares, I just skip it anyway, and if you want you can turn the cut sceens off, problem solved..Oh well...

I realize every body has different opinions, but this game plays great to me. The way the ball is thrown to first by the infields looks so real and a lot of the animation is amazing!

By slowdown in gameplay, I don't mean the game actually goes in slow motion. It goes regular speed, but there are too many frames missing in between each other frame that we see on the screen. If there's a line drive to center field, it will show one frame with the ball shooting out there, and the next frame is the ball two feet further out. It doesn't go by inches or anything... it's very choppy. This low number of frames also leads to unresponsive controlling. At least it did for me.

Again, this may have to do with BB having a display PS3 running on the bare minimum amount of hardware rather than a regular PS3, but maybe not.

I agree scott. the only thing I see with some guy's sliders is that they having infield throwing speed so slow, which to makes it look a little funny, I have the speed with my sliders just right for me that it looks smooth. Oh well thats just me.

I know you guys always wanted for me to play this game for myself (or to get a current-gen console)

Actually, I really don't care whether you played the game or not. I just didn't want to see you bashing a game you never actually played, that's all. Call me silly.

There are no jaggies using an HDTV for either the 360 or PS3 version of the game. I don't know why you are making things up.

Not in the stadiums, only in the players. I don't make these things up, and if I did, they would be for a good reason.

Re: I watched the PS3 version of this game being played at Best Buy today...






I'm not going to argue about this. Look at the players. Instead of a smooth curve, it's jagged lines. Jagged lines = jaggies. It looks worse in motion, because the jaggies float all over the players. The stadiums, on the other hand, are gorgeous.

Re: I watched the PS3 version of this game being played at Best Buy today...

Sorry, that's a BS photo. The player models in this game don't look like that. Don't know what/where you were looking at this, but I can tell you, on my TV (58" JVC HDTV) this game shines. Doesn't look anything like this, even on my buddies PS3 with an older model t.v.

Re: I watched the PS3 version of this game being played at Best Buy today...

Then come to Mission Valley again, but instead of Barnes and Noble (or Borders or wherever) come to Best Buy with me. Stand in front of the Samsung 42" LCD HDTV and display PS3 with MLB 2K7 in the console like I did (or you could sit, I guess). No need to pick up a controller... you'll see jaggies on the players just like in that screenshot. The dirt? The grass? The walls? The structures? Jaggy-free. The players do not have anti-aliasing. I believe this was even confirmed in an interview. If not, then I'm making stuff up... but you can't make that screenshot up. IGN wouldn't purposely dumb down the game's look for us.
