Alot of demos say this is not a final design of the finished product

I played over 100 games of The Show 2010, and I saw plenty of improvents and new animations(especially on defense)in the demo.

No. Not really. It's a representation of the game but not a final product. Hence the disclaimers.

In any case i think some staff writers need a visit to eye doctor.

Re: OS Roundtable -- MLB '11: The Show Demo Impressions

So far, I agree with the first three writers in the article. Nothing about the demo excited me much in terms of newness. I noticed the better player models and graphics and enjoyed some of the analog play, but underwhelming is a good characterization overall.

Having said that, guess who will still be buying this damn thing on day 1 and playing it for hours? Yours truly. Because dude, The Show! It's still the best baseball game ever made, and even minor upgrades to last year would be worth it to me.

So I can whine and hope for more additions and improvements down the line (and I will! ), but the bottom line is I still love this game through and through.

Agreed.

Chase is spot on with his observations, the others...well, i just dont know what people expect, its baseball after all, theres only so much you can do to improve what is in essence the same thing year after year, its not like COD with new maps etc.

Re: OS Staff Roundtable -- MLB '11: The Show Demo Impressions

I guess my point was that a demo should demonstrate the new features in the final product very well. That is the point of the demo.

The poster said that just because the demo is 2 1/2 months old that does not justify the impressions the writers gave about the analog controls and I disagree. The analog controls are going to be very close to what we see in the final product.
