Which Sony baseball game had stadium Intro fly-ins.?

[tnixen]

Does anyone remember which Sony baseball game had stadium Intro fly-ins? when starting a game? Reason I ask is because one of the announced features for MLB 14 The Show PS4 is something called Intro fly-ins. I remember seeing a video posted on youtube showing these fly-ins and interview with Sony from an older 989 studios baseball game. From what I remember it was really cool where the camera would start from outside the stadium from the sky and then make it's way into the park. I hope MLB 14 The Show PS4 version will have something very similar to this.

MLB 2005 didn't have fly-ins, but it did have stadium exterior introductions. It was like they were filmed from an "on foot" perspective.

Triple Play 98 had stadium fly-ins though. This was just posted in October.

Something similar to this with the PS4 power could be fantastic to watch in MLB The Show!!

MLB 06: The Show did something similar where it was usually at the entrance of the ballpark and zoom into whatever signage displays the name of the stadium. I played as the cubs a lot so I remember hot dog vendors outside and the camera flies up to the Wrigley Marquee.

I liked some of the old 2k ones as well. It would start outside the stadium with people walking through gates the the camera would pan to the concourses and people walking around. I'm hoping they up the anti on pregame intros. I posted the Triple Play 98 video a month ago and I wouldn't mind seeing something similar to that as well.

That's what I'm hoping this is. "Fly-ins" sounds like aerial shots and I'm not sure if I'd like that quite as much. I think it would be great to give the ballpark a feeling of actually existing within a larger world which is great, but I would rather just see the outside and some fans walking in and maybe a few camera angles from within the stands.

Basically it's a great thing, but I hope that it stays more grounded. I don't see too many aerial shots of ballparks outside of the playoffs on TV so I would prefer that they stay on the ground during the regular season. That being said, I won't pass judgement on it until we know exactly what they mean and how it works and looks in the game. If it blows me away I won't care about a stylistic choice.

The intros MLB2K had were great too. They had a shot from the gate where it showed fans tickets being scanned and people entering the stadium. And then shots from around the stadium before the game where players were just warming up on the field and some were interacting with fans(giving them a ball or something like that)

(Just watch the beginning part)

That was back when 2k actually had a pretty good baseball game.

These are awesome, combine them both the 2k intro broadcast with the fly in anthems. Also hopefully ythere will be fly ins during the 3/6/9th inning

That would be MLB 2k7 with Jeanie Zelasko doing the intro one of my sports favorites that 2k and Ben Brinkman destroyed and didnt build upon as they were so close with 2k7 and the scary thing was six years later it still had better graphics then the following years
I mean the game got better at the end but they put no money into it do to the exclusive payout and it had to lessen the graphics to keep frame rate .

Oh and MLB 2k7 The best baseball/sports soundtrack ever

O my god that was just awesome!!

It's perfect how you see outside the stadium with the camera showing how beautiful the ball park looks from the outside and look at all the fans entering the stadium. And to top it off they even have a girl in a studio doing the opening presentation O my just think of the possibles with the power of the PS4

Please Sony create this kind of presentation for MLB The Show

Here is one outside of Fenway

I find the irony humorous here. Lots of guys always dumping on 2k's game now here we are asking for aspects of it in the Show.

Where were you guys a few years ago?

I agree with this. I don't want to see an unrealistic "fly in" as if the camera was on some kind of drone. If there are views from the air, then a quick blimp view would suffice. Other than that, I'd prefer static exterior shots to show off the already great attention to detail and give stadiums extra life. Also, more interior shots from in and around the stadiums. The grassy parks, different decks, etc.
