I think they heard me.

Watch the Melvin Mora play at third, and see his one-arm long sleeve.
THANK YOU!! WOO HOO!!
now my RTTS guy is going to actual wear the equipment i wore in real life.

Also, as a baseball player that was All-Conference Utility Player, the path that the outfielders take is spot on... and the double play balls seem more fluent especially the backhand by the Cardinals SS.

Looking good so far SCEA!

Wastn that already in 08???at least i think it is...

also im 100% with rob, diferent color for acessories would be a huge plus imo.
another acessory thats missing imo is the wrist tapes...they have wrist bands now but not bands like j.reyes wears...

take a look, this is a wrist tape:


and now a wrist band(that is already in the game)


now , i know that this aint to much of a diference, but it would be nice to have this if possible, i think 2k had this...offcourse the color change would be priority number 1 imo.

The way the outfielders approach the ball brought a tear to my eye. No longer a straight line, the outfielders will circle and short step when approaching the ball. This is Gold Glove stuff.

Loving what I read. But the biggest things to come from the blog are the video footage, and question marks about the improvements to the hitter/batter portion of the game.

Still waiting to hear about added cameras or changes with cameras (based on the Yankee HR in the stadium video). Would loooove more cameras or a user defined option.

Not one-arm sleeve.

They have regular long sleeves.

I haven't been this excited about a game ever. SCEA you deserve a pat on the back!

I love the improvements made on the game. I have this game pre ordered and paid out in full.

This game has trumped Madden and NCAA (and others) as the must buy game each year.

Re: MLB 09 The Show Blog: New and Improved A.I.

Yes the fielding looks great and the lighting and the fact that pitcher vs batter looks to be more realistic pending on skill level of the players but one thing you guys are missing in these posts is that fact that.....

I actually saw an improvement to playoff atmosphere...anyone know what Im talking about?

A cookie for someone who does......Im so excited!@!!

The infield animations looked good, especially that grounder that hopped past A-Rod.

Yeah, A-Rod almost was K.O.-Rod! He was inches from a baseball tattoo. Looked great!

Loving this info. The outfielder ball paths and fielder errors looked great!

You got me, I didn't see anything related to playoffs in that vid but I don't have a trained eye like most of you do.

The only thing I saw was bunting on the walls. Could not tell if it was playoffs or opening day type stuff.

I believe that is playoff presentation....I looked up the Padres schedule and they play the Dodgers for their home-opener. The vid shows Padres vs. D-Backs....

I thought they did have one-arm long sleeves in 08 as well. I remember playing against the BoSox and Elsbury had just a long sleeve on his left-arm.
