I think it was Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 that had a “Legends of the Majors” mode where they adjusted physics, tone, equipment, etc that fit within each time period. Man, that mode alone did such a cool job of capturing the history and the players, it was really ahead of its time. I wish The Show could do something similar.
I remember that. Man pga 14 was some of the most fun I've ever had playing games. All the upgrades and different equipment, the classic courses, career mode was awesome, online mini games. Such a good game.

I like the black and white moments. I wish they would have programmed more than just making in black and white.
The 100 foot flat screens and brand new Nike really take you out of it.
Yeah, this is seriously half-a$$ed. The black and white hurts my eyes, but I would put up with it more if they had put a little more effort in. Period-appropriate uniforms, fan clothing, players on the teams, stadiums, etc.
The Ruth one last year was cool, it felt B & W; these feel like they put luminosity and contrast to 100; I’m blue eyed and intense lightning hurt my eyes; I wear sunglasses while driving on cloudy days

I like the idea of the black and white moments, don't really like the way it's executed. I wish they would do more with vintage stadiums. 120 years of MLB history and we've got 12 classic stadiums.
And 3 of the 12 aren't even actual added to the game classic stadiums either. The twins, Braves, and Rangers just got new stadiums since and they just kept the old ones in
Edit: 4 really. The Mets switch to citi field just isn't as recently as the other 3

Thanks to black and white TV, I grew up thinking that the Yankees team colors were black and white. I was an adult before I realized it was Navy.

Marlins also. They didn’t go to their current stadium until 2012.
Anyway I used to play different baseball games on the computer 20 to 30 years ago and i think that game had more classic stadiums. -

6 because you have old Yankee stadium as well. Marlins, Yankees, Mets, Braves, Rangers, and Twins

i think its pretty cool tbh. its just a moment, not like your having to play a whole game with it

But isn't that what they saw back then. I don't think human eyes saw color in those days. We developed that in the 70s

A lot of people still think it's black

I am getting tired of it too. I remember MVP did the b/w like an old film which sort of made it more pleasing on the eyes. But this just looks bad on the eyes especially when doing the Marichal moments.

I don't have an issue with the "classic" or "Legend" players having black and white moments. I can understand the issue if people have a hard time seeing them though.

I have a real hard time with it. I can only do an inning before I need a break. I use meter pitching and the bar gets lost when it gets to the top of the meter when the game is in black and white.

I'm not sure about all the other contrarians here that are somehow defending a cheap filter, but I don't think I need to remind everybody that we are playing AS the legends. Unless you all think that the players were controlled by spectators at home, then there's no reason to inexplicably think that the legends saw the world in black and white. What WOULD be cool is if the REPLAYS were in black and white, since it'd still be neat to have that little throwback to 'black and white sports'.
Contrary to popular belief, the first colour broadcast in 1954 did NOT magically colour the entire world.
But go ahead, please keep mixing up 'taking the high road' and 'willfully ignorant of poor game design', by telling us about how great a white ball being thrown against grey backdrops is, and how great dark grey pitching lines mesh well with slightly lighter grey meters.
The fact remains that it doesn't make sense from a gameplay or realism standpoint.

Great idea! It's very distracting during gameplay.

There should be a choice for if you want it black and white or not. Maybe like a setting you can turn on or off. I personally would have it off

Hay, as a kid, with color, I always thought the Chicago Bears wore black. Still to this day I can barely tell it is a shade of blue. Definitely darker than Navy. Looks more like Peacoat or Space Cadet to me.

I hate those type of moments, real strain on the eyes with the white uniform and the white ball plus the stadium lights

Sepia would even be better if they were looking to do something like this. But more honestly - this is super uninclusive - there are people who will struggle simply because not everyone's eyes are the same. And the greyscale is super washed out. At minimum, blacks need to be blacks and whites need to be whites. Either way, it needs to be an option not a requirement. The people in charge of game accessibility should be really doing more, not less, in areas like this. Another reason why I say their "BLM" movement last summer was performative. Be in for everything inclusive, or nothing at all, but don't just sell titles based on a movement.

Agree i can't see [censored] with pinpoint pitching haha
