Re: ESPN photo gallery

The lighting doesn't seem up to par for a game developed for strong hardware like the 360. It may just be the screenshots though. I don't know.. I do realize it's a night game by the way. The crowd looks interesting though.

Re: ESPN photo gallery

Something's not right with those screens. Seems like they're taken from the PS2/Wii version perhaps. Too many jagged lines.

The screens at Gamestop, IGN, etc. look MUCH better.

I agree with you. They do look better at IGN. I mean, damn, MLB 2K7 looked very nice. I'd hate to see them take another step backward this year. I don't think they will visually.

The screens have the 360 trigger and back button icons.

I just hope for 360 owner's sake, that they dont pull another, early shots look nice, then towards release they somehow worsen.

I think that my be the PC version. Ive played baseball games on a PC, and the lighting tends to look extremely bright if your not using a hig end PC.

I'm pretty sure Ron already confirmed a while ago that those pics were taken in extremely low res conditions and is no way representative of what the game actually looks like in normal conditions.

The Cover Pic is PC!

Re: ESPN photo gallery

Those are high resolution images scaled down. Places like IGN have been guilty of doing this in the past and it messes up the actual quality.

The only issue I have with the graphics so far is the field textures. They are too flat and have little depth. They obviously do this to keep the framerate in check so the game doesn't have to render so much at one time. The player models are nice, with proper dimensions and I really like the crisp layovers.

Looking good.

Re: ESPN photo gallery

That BTP cam is amazing. I'm in love.

I do like that the Control Rating seems to be important (along with Composure and Stamina). Hopefully, that means something when pitching.

I don't know, this looks like I'm watching an actual game, aside from the low-gen grass effects.

No its just that ESPN washes out their game pics pretty bad. I wouldnt worry about the lighting at all.
