MLB The Show 25 Screenshots

[LastActionHero]

Underwhelmed is an understatement wow that looks…exactly like any other edition from the last few years.



Improved field/textures is definitely not happening again this year. Still looking at brown tarmac with some breadcrumbs that now actually look like sunflower seeds, or did he rip his Fanatics pants

Looking at the uniforms I think there’s nothing new to expect there either.

We’ll wait and see when we see the game in motion when the trailer drops but yikes this ain’t it.

I can almost guarantee this not from final build. Same panic every year. Nobody jump off a bridge yet .

Of course these are not from the final built but when did the final built of this game ever blew the first screenshots out of the water. Yeah never.

This isn't meant to be directed at you, but this is said every single year...and there is rarely ever any sort of noticeable difference between what they initially shared and the final build.

There was one exception I can remember (ages ago, possibly 2008-2009) where they "unlocked" a certain lighting aspect pretty close to release. Other than that, I can't recall any other surprises late in the cycle which makes sense. If they made huge improvements, it would be a strange move not to show it off.

I hope I'm wrong when the trailer drops this week, but I'm pretty certain I won't be.

Just curious. Who is going to put out a game that can even match The Show? Was it RBI baseball that recently failed miserably? I’m not sure there will ever be competition and the growing pains for a new game would have to be time consuming.

As far as the graphics. I’m fine with them. Can they weak them….sure. For me it’s also about animations, etc. I’m looking forward to the trailer.

Not gonna lie, this is a massive bummer.

You're right that any new baseball game coming out will most likely go through growing pains.

One thing I will say is that if another baseball game was released, it wouldn't necessarily have to be better than The Show in every aspect. If a competitor came out with a franchise mode as in depth as 2k, I'd support it monetarily even if there was a slight step backwards in other modes. This would be with the hope that they will catch up in other areas.

I still play The Show every single year, but it deserves its criticism just like all other games do.

Wow I thought we were getting a whole new game built from the ground up and with past game play, I guess not 😭💔
