hey does anyone know how to check swing. i haven't been able to figure it out

One thing I'm really not liking is the color of the crowd. I'm seeing tons of greens, browns, and tans. When, in reality, Busch Stadium is a sea of red--t just looks off to me. And why are the umps so loud on the field? I wonder if this could be tuned down in the retail version.

On the plus side, I'm enjoying the pitching as always. The outfield play seems smoother too.

Pull back on RS when using analog hitting. I haven't been able to check swing on classic though.

Honestly, I feel like though the graphics have taken a step forward, the frame rate has taken a step back. There is a lot of stuttering after the ball is put into play.

The player faces look a bit better, but the uniforms look to have take. A step backwards.

I still see a lot of 2D crowds

I'll probably pick it up just because I love the pitching engine, but there is no question that it hasn't made the leap I had hoped for.

I played the Major League Baseball 2K12 demo on PS3 and I still think the series has finally run it's course. I use to like the 2K MLB series and still do at times but it will never be as good as sony's MLB The Show series sorry to say.

I wonder if these new catcher animations will be in the full version because with no one on base the catcher seems to be on Red Bull. The default camera makes it hard to see these new ball physics 2k talked about. I really wish they would let us change the difficulty because the game felt like it was on Pro as always. Can't wait til Tuesday for the full version Sent from Awesome Phone

Lol about the Red Bull, but your 100% right about the difficulty. I am certain that if we could of plugged in your slider set from last year with the camera adjustments it would have been a whole new game (gameplay wise).

Matter of fact when I get the game Tuesday I am just gonna start out with last years set for 10 exibition games and go from there, i.e. I noticed right away that infielder throw speed and baserunner speed did not match up imo.

No commentary.

Demo feels and plays about the same as 2k11.

The wierd hesitation infielders do before throwing to 1st base is hopefully not in the retail.

I guess since I bought 2k11 and I only have an XBox, I'll be buying 2k12... but I'd still rather have the other one.
