Throughout the recent MLB 09 The Show Community Preview Event we were given the opportunity to take screenshots using the PS3′s slick built-in feature which made it really convenient. From that I grabbed 23 screens that SCEA has been generous enough to forward back to me. Most of them were based on requests that people had made via Twitter. Today I’ll put up the first eight of those which you can check out by continuing on or in larger form in the screenshot gallery.

    JOSH: MLB 2k is a broken product where as MLB is a poslished product. Both MLB and 2k attempt to represent the game of baseball in the same exact fashion where as both live and 2k basketball are polished products but they represent the game of b-ball in slightly different ways. I have played both and I prefer the faster paced live over the slower sim based 2k. Like i said josh…………….personal perspective. Now the record is straight :P

    • Regy

      oh snap!

    • Josh

      Yea I guess you're right..I mean if you like limited animations, robotic movements, zombie looking player models, & arcady gameplay then I can see why you prefer Live over 2K.

    360 is where the hardcore sports gamers meet…even tho I prefer the PS3, you can't deny what the XBL does for gaming.

      Regy, your not answering my question. I would like to know specifically what the difference is between the game. Your answer tells me nothing. If i want to play madden online, i don't need an xbox live interface to do it. I go into the game lobby and all the peeps are there. Same for any sports game. If i want to play with my friends, no problem there either. PS3 handles friends just fine so you need to come back at me with something relavant. Your statement is rediculous.

    • Frank C

      No, nobody looks "Fat". They all just look like body builders.

    Just one question Pasta Padre…are the Mets all white home unis in the game?

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

      I'm not sure. Pared at OS is the guy to ask since hes a Mets fan I'm sure he knows. SCEA can only go with whats in the style guide provide by MLB though and I think some of the things aren't correct in that.

    During night games were all the players wearing long sleeves like last year or did they keep the same gear that they would have for a day game. Cause all long sleeves for all players during all night games drove me nuts!

    Pasta, how was the pitch count in relationship to fatigue? Last year I noticed that a starting pitcher would have almost no fatigue after 70 pitches or so, and would completely lose control after 80 pitches…thanks for all the great work pasta, we all appreciate it.

    This could be the best baseball game ever, and they are scary close to having for all intents and purposes, a perfect baseball game. If they ever fix those players builds..

    Well I didn't really analyze fatigue but it felt pretty good in terms of how deep my pitchers were going and when I needed to bring in relievers. I think it would probably take more time to figure out if pitch count and fatigue matched up properly. Confidence level at the time is also a factor to consider.

    Hey Pasta, I know you've been asked this before, but I don't remember a reply, considering the high definition of the images you took, they look better than 720p quality… does that mean it might be 1080p?
