PS Nation - MLB 14 The Show Hands-On Report (PS3/PS4)

[El_MaYiMbE]

Disappointed with the release date, but happy to finally have some good info.
Looking forward to the next 3 months (yikes!) as we approach release date!

PS4 version cannot come soon enough!

At least OSFM will be ready to go on day 1 for PS4, given that rosters are cross-platform, right?

Also, waiting until May isn't a big deal. If it is such a big deal to you, then why did you buy a PS4 so far ahead of time with the unfounded assumption that the game would be released in March/April?

I don't understand why anyone would buy a PS4 for this game prior to any details being released for it. Why not save your money and wait for the info to come out before making a decision?

Looks like I will be buying a Vita on April 1st

Really dissapointed with this May release date as it can actually be May 31, which is 2 months into the season... Oh, and that green color at Fenway Park is just bad...

Ramone needs to verify this, but I believe that he said Yes to the rosters.

May is not that long to wait really, and to say that you're only playing a partial season is kinda silly in my mind. You still Have May, June, July, August, September, October..... My plan is to play a lot on PS3/Vita, then transfer everything to PS4 when it hits.

Since my PS3 died 2 weeks a go I guess I have no choice but to wait until may and buy a PS4 and the show. On the positive side, it gives me more time to save up the money for it.

This wasn't clarified in the video or the article. This feature sounds awesome when I want to play a quck game but Part of what appeals to me about baseball is its more relaxed pace, building the count against a batter, or coming back from an 0-2 count in the box. I hope this option stays in tact.

If you activate Quick Counts, it lasts the entire game. It's an option though, you're never forced to use them or not.

Looks like helmets will come off when on the bases, nice touch.

Thank you for the article Glenn!

Ya that was my first reaction too. All of April is pretty much a waste as I wont play franchise or anything until the OSFM rosters come out. Really no point in me getting the PS3 version but I probably still will if they offer a 10 upgrade to ps4 version or something.
