buy the game bro ur in for a surprise I played the demo it really surprised me a lot am very impressed..

Im loving how this game looks so far.
One thing I didnt like was during the second batter i believe, the PA music kept playing through the at bat

Played 3 games this morning before work.

Pros:
Stadium, crowd, player graphics all look improved. The faces look REALLY improved.

The animations are definitely smoother in the outfield.

Physics aren't bad.

Camera angles are better, except for the hitting camera. Fielding and pitching are great...

Cons:
I hit three TITANIC homeruns. 447 with A-Rod that went through the restaurant in CF. It had no collision detection. 439 with Texeira over the RF bullpen. And Granderson hit one 477 to left-center (yes, opposite field) that went to the top of the left field bleachers. Very unrealistic.

Sounds of the game were very bland and boring.

I'm very happy to read so many positive impressions. Finally seems like we're getting a good baseball game on the 360.

Download almost finished.....

I've always played the show but am seriously considering this game...

Could some please explain to me how the pitching works, I never really grasped what you should be doing with the right stick corresponding to the circles that appear on the screen.

Thank you!

As a fan of the Show, I am very impressed with the demo. They made a huge leap from 2K9 to this year. I will be buying both this year.

Minor gripe: On a 1 out pop fly to deep left, my guy on third did not tag up.

Quick question: anyone figure out how to steal yet? I know it says LT, but all it does for me is lead off??

so noone notices they are hacking again? check IE, everyone is rated D AGAIN at walks . how can they mess that up two years in a row!? dont believe me, do this test. throw three straight balls, get the hitter at 3-0 then throw a strike. EVERY single hitter i attempted this with, they swing .... that just does not happen IRL, thats hacking. jerky animations are back, and they took away the pitching view from last year i loved that view. fielding seems much smoother, though seems unnaturally fast. HRs dont seem to be a problem, but ive only played a couple games. pitching again is cool, little more punishing if you fault. overall im not woed at all ,since im still seeing alot of 2k9 still. which wasnt a horrible game, but i just thought they would have vastly improved.

Anyone care to comment on how pitch control is when using classic pitching.
