Awesome to hear about the smooth animations. I am so excited for this game. The inability to control cpu lineups doesn't really bother me. If thats the only knock on this game we are in for a treat.

Quick question: How was the hit variety?

I have a question:

From some videos posted on YouTube of this demo, the game looks extremely boring. With commentary by Jon Miller and Joe Morgan (who I both enjoy watching in real life), I get tired of it and tired of Joe's obvious commentary, such as: "The reason he was safe was because he slid into the bag and made it safely." Is the commentary repetitive from last year (because it sure seems like it)?

Secondly, Homeruns and game play killed this game last year. How is it? Is there such thing as "an NL Game" this year, or is it very similar to last year where everything was either a: Homerun, or a Robbed Homerun or and out?

Thanks for your answers. Hopefully this version will bring back Baseball to 2K like the good old days.

Yea, one problem i couldn't stand was the only way the AI ever scored was off of homeruns about 95% of the time.

Re: Major League Baseball 2K8 Impressions

The game sounds like it will be a major improvement over 2K7. The more information I read about this game, the more excited I get. Now, I just need to figure out how I'm going to get all this baseball gaming in next week.

What are the options for fielding cameras? The angles from last year killed it for me.
