Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

Final guess of the day:

Release date pushed up.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

Have grass and dirt colors been touched up a bit?

I saw it!!! They added "PBU" to the stat card this year!

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

The fans catch foul balls and homeruns now! Didn't actually see it, just guessing here.

Ball dudes at At&t.

A multiplayer online franchise thing....team up with your friends and take on other groups of players in an online league mode?!

Cutscenes of players rounding 1st base.

Fans running onto the field and getting tazed mid game...replacing the old beach ball cutscene.

Am I close on any of these?

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

Is it the new pitching meter I noticed?

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

There is a real quick shot in the video of what looks to be Carlos Pena still in a Cubs uniform. Pretty sure he wore #22 last year.

I figured that was just the Move's meter (in other words, the DS still might have the same art). Plus, that's not in the second half of the trailer.

Here are my reasons for thinking a possible earlier release date:

- It technically would be a big announcement, and would be something worth revealing at a later date (and for good reason, to make sure its competition can't get a leg up on them).
- It's not gameplay-related, and it is not a feature.
- Nemesis asked to think "outside the box." He also said we were "going in the wrong direction." Going in reverse order, chronologically, would mean to go "earlier."
- Brett said March can't come soon enough (doesn't specify March 8th, so maybe March 1st?).
- The trailer said to "pre-order now" in the second half of the trailer, but also doesn't say a date (if you're going to tell them to pre-order, you might as well also tell them the date... unless you are concealing it).
- They're asking you to look hard for something, but they never ask you to look for what is there... more of what isn't there. Heck, the trailer on the Moneyball Blu-ray disc even says March 8th.

Not just a wild guess on my end, that is. It might even have to do with pre-ordering itself, like there is a special edition (or something) that you get for pre-ordering.

Heck, they might even shoot for this to be a Vita launch title if they can. Earlier release dates aren't something that haven't been done before, but it certainly would amp people up a lot more quickly.

This forum would explode if this was true, Blzer. That said, I have my fingers crossed that you are correct

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

That would be great if that was the case but it is not!

Until I saw Nemesis's subsequent post, I thought this might be true because one of the hints he gave was "Nothing gets you closer"

Ah, that was the other clue I was going to add, but I decided to stop sifting through his posts.

I still think legends have come back into this game, though.

They have not.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

Is it being able to scan ourselves into the game this year using the PS Eye Camera with the Move? The footage with Adrian Gonzalez using the Move looked something like that. The background behind him looked like a living room he was in.

I know that sounds crazy, but I just figured I'd take a shot in this guessing game. Haha.

It's quite alright, actually. I never used them anyway.

Another big reason I thought it was an earlier release date is when I made the post saying that I would just "wait and see," and nemesis said that I disappointed him the most, maybe because I ironically spoke against what it was going to be (less of a wait, that is).

Too bad it's not it though lol.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Reveal Trailer

Based on the "nothing gets you closer" hint, I've figured it out...

Spoiler

The box art is scratch and sniff

You're welcome fellas.
