Videos Of New Stadiums In MLB 09 The Show

Posted January 13th, 2009 at 12:06 pm

For those who got to see the leaked video a while back it was exciting to get a glimpse of the new Yankee Stadium as represented in MLB 09 The Show. SCEA has now presented MTV with a video tour of the stadium. Also now added is the Mets new Citi Field. Needless to say they look fantastic. Continue on to watch the videos and leave your thoughts in the comments.

The new Yankee Stadium was constructed, like many stadiums built for “MLB 09: The Show,” pretty much by one person, artist Kevin Weinstein. “MLB 09″ producer Jody Kelsey, a life-long Yankee fan, said each stadium takes a couple of months to be built.

    Pasta, there is one for Citi Field as well. However, it still has the walls of the stadium as being blue, when they are dark green in real life. When you go for your hands-on, can you let me know if they have fixed this or plan on fixing this after release? Seems like a major overlook

          Actually, grammar and spelling are two completely different things. So maybe he's the spelling police but he definitely didn't correct your grammar.

    These vids are outrageous. The music is great and adds to the visuals. The lighting was awesome. Not to mention David Wright's HR off the facing of the upper deck and bouncing back onto the field.

    These new stadiums are beautiful but I hope that SCEA has plans to include classic stadiums, such as Tigers Stadium.

    Pasta, any news on whether the game will have the following:

    1) Weather effects (clouds, at least)
    2) Classic teams
    3) Choice of jersey during career mode
    4) Cold weather attire
    5) Pitchers wearing jackets on base paths
    6) More players in dugouts
    7) Rainouts

      Not sure on those things. Definitely will take note when I go to the event if they haven't been answered by then. Make sure to drop them in the posting when I ask for things to look out for…which will probably go up next week.

  • Mark

    Everything looks the same as '08 to me except for the lighting and the stadiums….pitching deliveries and batter swings still don't look right…. CC's delivery is terrible… Santana's delivery looks like he throws like a girl…kinda pushing the ball…they really need to upgrade the obvious animations! I really am not that impressed by what I saw based on all the hype…who knows, maybe 2K will surprise us this year.

    Padre,

    Get job posting more content on MLB '09: The Show. The videos capture the feel of each stadium wonderfully and the game looks amazingly detailed and life like. As great as MLB '08: The Show was last year, I think that MLB '09: The Show will be one of the most anticipated titles as well as a potential candidate for Game of the Year. Definitely a must buy, in my opinion.

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/cabrillo24 cabrillo24

      Where have you been? The Show (at least in the last 3 years I've been following it) has been one of the most anticipated sports titles during that time frame. Shame that its an exclusive title.

  • Yes man.

    yeah this game looks like trash 2k all the way.

    • Jay

      for your info…. If 2k where to surprise "us" they would have done it a long time ago, I own a PS3 and a 360 and honestly I look foward for MLB 09 than 2k9, MLB 09 has delived every year, unline 2k that only made a comeback on 2k7 when they improved the graphics, but as far of gameplay and realism, MLB 09 is the best game. if you want more realism than that, GO TO A FREAKIN' BASEBALL GAME THEN!!!

      • http://intensedebate.com/people/cabrillo24 cabrillo24

        LOL

        • r00tabaga

          Yes, that was funny. Unless someone has played the Show, they really have no idea how much of a gap there is between Sony's game and 2k's sorry effort. 2k only makes good NFL & NBA games……….that's it folks!

          • http://intensedebate.com/people/cabrillo24 cabrillo24

            I began playing Sony's version (MLB 07) after playing 2K6's effort and I noticed a very huge gap. I'll admit I haven't played a 2K baseball game since, so I don't know how much 2K has closed the gap but I haven't been tempted to give it a try, MLB does too many things the right way.

          • http://intensedebate.com/people/Skihawks Skihawks

            Yeah, the gap has widened. I am still interested to see if 2K has made any fixes. 2K8 was disappointing after a solid effort with 2K7.

            2K seems to be in the business of recycling in regards to all of its sports games, which is sad because I once considered 2K an innovation leader.

            The Show for the PS2 plays better than any 2K on the PS3 or 360….

          • timothy daley

            2k hasn't made an NFL game in 5 years and you want to count All Pro FB 2k8 then that game was a piece of crap, However they do make a decent basketball game though I think they have certainly plateaued. NBA Live series has the freshest ideas and the live 360 is awesome. All sports games should use this model for updating teams and players.

    allright how does it take 2 months to make a stadium? that means it would take them 5 years (60 months) to make all 30 teams?

    • stadium

      if only one guy was building one stadium every month, yes. But they probably hired some other people to help out.

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/Skihawks Skihawks

      Good point….

    • GRAMMAR POLICE

      For people who aren't retarded, what it actually said was… "Stadiums for “MLB 09: The Show” were built primarily by one person over the course of a couple of months, according to the game’s producer (and Yankee fan) Jody Kelsey." Meaning that it took him a couple of months to build ALL of the stadiums. The (s) at the end of the word stadiums means its plural, meaning more than one.

    Man, the frieze on the new Yankee Stadium looked incredible. This video made me laugh because of how beautiful the new designs look. Yankee Stadium looks like it has been created to its full potential, and so does CitiField, but they need to change the walls to green in CitiField, they arent blue. Other than that, I can see why 2K Sports producers will be shedding tears once again this baseball season, because you cant beat what you just saw in this video. Man, I'm so glad I Pre-Ordered this game yesterday!!!!!!!

    • timothy daley

      Steve_291, the walls aren't green they will be blue. Currently they aren't any color b/c they aren't finished yet but look at the link and see the model. The walls will be blue.

    It looks awesome. I got MLB 08 on a referral and I must say that it is the best sports game ever period. I'm not even a big baseball fan and I love playing MLB 08. I hope they don't pull a Madden and show all the love to the Yankees like they do to the Cowboys. They need to show some love for the city of brotherly love and the 2008 World Champions Philadelphia Phillies!

    ok i haven't played mlb of any show but from looking at those videos i wasn't so impressed despite the great design and realism of the stadium(ball bounce of facing) mlb the show just seems so fake and cartoon like. it kind of reminds me of slugfest ya thats right slugfest. i will wait and see i have played all 2k mlb games and 2k8 wasnt bad it was just choppy thats all. their animations and movements are better. i will probably buy 2k9 just because they finally figureed out they need to step up. if they bust i will probably buy a ps3 and mlb the show but thats only if it is worse then 2k8 which i just dont see

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/Skihawks Skihawks

      The game actually looks better when playing it. The videos do not do it justice. The faces are detailed and the jerseys don't flop all over the place.

      There are some things that I would like Sony to add and hopefully they respond. Outside of that, the game is fluid and zoom at 60 FPS. Not to mention the way the players react to certain elements. It looks beyond real….
