Being from Chicago and a DIE-HARD Cub fan: how about...

---white "W" win flags held throughout the stadium after a Chicago victory.

---"Go Cubs Go' song being played after a victory on the stadium PA

...and for the FINALE...

...a better 7th inning stretch at Wrigley (it's possibly the biggest tradition at Wrigley field)
I gotta say I hate the Cubs but that 'Go Cubs Go' song gets me singing it everytime I hear it. It just sticks in my heads.

Re: Mascot Info Request!

The only thing good about the Cubs or Wrigley Field is their flagpole standings listing. Did they have that in MLB 08? With the dynamic scoreboards that show the scores and pitchers of other games (which still fascinates me), they should have Wrigley's standings flags.

Agreed...whast's the Wrigley scoreboard without the infamous flags a-top the board representing the league standings...!! (Let's get that in there SCEA!)

Re: Mascot Info Request!

I think that is an awesome idea. It's the least they can do for us since we don't have a mascot!

Re: Mascot Info Request!

On the same note as that, if the scoreboard on the Monster reflected the actual standings in dynasty that would be awesome

Re: Mascot Info Request!

It is amazing that producers and developers work on mascots instead of other features. I would love to see the market research on this stuff!

---not picking on SCEA because every game seems to think adding mascots to their game is adding authenticity. I don't think I have noticed a mascot at a game in my whole entire life, on TV or at the ball game.

Re: Mascot Info Request!

I can see some people enjoying this feature, personally right now I can take it or leave it, but who knows, I'll wait to see how I feel about Mascots after the game comes out.
I hope a yes or no option for Mascots is offered...

Although right now I'm not that enthusiastic about Mascots, I'm sure there will be plenty to look forward to in 09' ...

Great to read that more names will be added! I can only hope that first names and my list of nicknames are included...

Agreed!

...I really am not "too" excited bout the whole Mascot-feature. To be honest, mascots aren't really a big-part of the game environment in most ballparks..."maybe" once a game they'll pan to a mascot.

The only mascot that is implemented well is "Bernie" in Milwaukee, because he slides down the slide when a homerun is hit. (The sausage races aren't even that big unless you are ACTUALLY attending the game.)

I dunno, I guess I'd rather have SCEA add more little things, graphically enhance player models, stadiums, and tweak things little by little...just my "O"

Re: Mascot Info Request!

There is no mascot feature. They are just adding mascots. And people complain, but it's just part of the stuff that makes MLB 08 great. I still laugh when I see the beach ball on the field cutscene. It's just a fun little thing. You might as well complain that they put too much time into making the stadiums, or the ability to toggle stadiums on and off. It's a quirk of sports.


Sorry, rant off. It's just that they said it took longer talking about the mascots than it did to actually make them and people are still questioning it. They added them unannounced in every other sports game and people like it.
