Yeah, I think he said something about how he hated the fielding last year (I watched it yesterday so I'm not 100% sure). But that's good to hear, and it sounds like they improved it. I know everyone is complaining that it just rehased everything that was said, but for me it was great. I've been so busy and lazy when I've had time I haven't read any of the previews so it sounds like I got everything that's been covered just by watching this video

Can't wait to try it out whenever the demo hits

We won't hear anything good till around 3 weeks till launch like last year with MLB2K10. 2k is famous for this and it shouldn't be a surprise. They do this with all there titles, especially sports games.

Not impressed with the look of the players in the short clips they showed. My biggest problem with the players is from the knee's down, the whole size of the leg doesn't taper down at all around the ankle, just looks weird to me, like the whole shoulder thing that was in the Show

I remember reading something around this time last year that the devs said fielding was so messed up from Kush that they stripped it down and were giving it a year of development. Meaning that fielding was barebones last year intentionally while they added to the code.

I wish I could find the article to support that but it's been a year obviously. I'm not upset at how fielding was last year because of what I read but this year the pressure is on since it seems that was their main focus for 2K11.
