Me too. Getting kind of tired of the PC Richard Michael Kay SO call anyway.

We havent seen any info on updates in any mode.

Nothing has been said officially. Everything so far is based off of about 2 min worth of gameplay captured by the users iPhone.

If you're concerned about 14 being a paint job just buy the game used at GS. If you don't like it return it within 7 days. No harm no foul.

Does that means that the development of the ps4 version is going to be a lot better than what is expected for the first game on a new system???? or just plain and simple "common sense" that it takes a few years to be able to harness all the potential of a new system?

Not to knock at all, it still looks good and im sure will still be an excellent game, but it does look eerily similar in many ways to '13, and i believe thats because of time restraints due to the PS4 taking up so much dev time and resources. I honestly get the feeling the PS4 version is going to blow us away looks wise, and may even have a totally different scorebug, on screen text, pretty much everything to differentiate it as the king from its little brother. Now we simply have to be patient for PS4 media, but yes, it is a painful wait but it will be worth it in the end

It looks like 13 because 13 probably represents about all they could get out of the PS3. Any improvements they make will be welcome. I'm satisfied with 11-13 so I plan on supporting all the work they've done and will buy 14.

I haven't had a chance to watch the whole video since I'm at work, but what I saw of the presentation looks like a nice update from last year. The menu reminds me a lot of how other sports games have gone with the whole tiled menu system. I hope its smooth to navigate. Glas some footage and info has finally come out, hopefully more starts coming in.

It means while the ps4 will be impressive and there will be a lot of cool things that weren't possible on the ps3, there is no way it will be maxed out (or using the full potential) this year. Just like how when they went to the ps3 it got better and better each year, we will see the same with the ps4. We should still be very excited for the ps4 version this year and I'm sure it'll blow us away, but there's no way they used all of it's abilities in the very first development cycle.

I completely understand what you are saying, I just remember reading that mlb 07 on the ps3 wasn't that great or a huge step from the ps2 version and didn't fair all too well in reviews. However I recall hearing that the ps3 was very hard to develop games on in the beginning and that the ps4 is actually easier to develop games on, so therefore thinking that SCEA might have a easier time creating MLB 14 on the ps4 than what they did on MLB 07 for the ps3, initially being able to harness more power out of the ps4 than what they could on the ps3 the first time around. More than likely I'm reading to far into what Russell said, but I'm not game developer nor work in the industry so I'm totally speculating.
