In person, I'm actually not a jerk. Really! I know that, in the grand scheme, a game releasing in May instead of March is not a big deal, and you're right, it probably will lead to a better product. But you are right about the passionate part. I'm 35, and The Show is the one game that can still make me feel like a kid. Kind of silly, but true. No more negative posts from me today, guys.

Quick counts are a nice addition. ASB '05 had this feature, and remains the only baseball video game that I have been able to play all 162. If I recall, you could do "Random" (which had some issues if I remember correctly), but you could also define a select generated count that would apply to every batter. I ended up using a 2-1 count. That at least gave you one pitch to steal or bunt, but still really sped up the game.

Sorry, I read your post as 0-strike counts. My bad.

I'm so happy I could cry from joy. The sleeves have finally been fixed in the PS4 version!

The faces are obviously upgraded, but the neck and arm textures look a little low-res in comparison. It's extremely noticeable in the close ups of Pedroia and Napoli, are the models still a WIP? Or will the new changes to the lighting make a difference?

Wait till next year.

Never thought you were a jerk. Believe me when I say that I get it. Am I disappointed ? Yes, but I know what the end result wil be, A Great Game. I'm 39 and this game is the only reason I bought a PS4.

I didn't play it enough to make any judgements yet

So no game play of anything? Sad day
