You on the ps3 or 360?
Did you put the whole song or did you cut it?
Thanks for the impressions, one of the features I'm looking forward too.

What about stadium sounds?

Ok let me start by saying I have not looked at every single post in this thread. With that said I must say this game is average at best. This game is not finished. Straight up and down this game just isnt finsihed. Online play is garbage(no sliders?). The game plays a decent game of baseball but its hit or miss anyway you look at it.

Now I understand some enjoy that the game and thats fine but if you are having any doubts about it. Go rent the game first because $60 is a lot for a game you might not like and will only end up with $20 trade in credit for.

Whoever said this game needed to be worked on for another 6 months before being released is right. The game just isnt finished and I for one feel betrayed with all the crap Ben fed us.

Here is one person hoping EA buys Take 2 because if im only going to have 1 baseball choice on the 360 then I like my chances with 2k/EA teaming up vs just 2k and thier crappy engine to play my baseball on.

Oh and please dont tell me to go play the show. I dont have a ps3 and that statement is getting old guys.

Even with the warts this game has, I can't put it down and I want to play more and more.

It's beyond atrocious. That's all I have to say. I really feel for anyone that purchased this as a new game. Good luck!

I did, sadly enough. Luckily the guys at my local Gamestop were really cool and let me trade it for the 360 version. The difference is really night and day. If you think the 360 has framerate problems, you should try the PS3. It was basically unplayable for me. The 360 version is better, but not nearly 60 fps like we were led to believe. What I don't understand is how they could have dropped the texture quality and gotten a worse framerate at some points. It makes no sense to me. And I can't turn off the damn bottom ticker and it's really starting to annoy me. Has anyone been able to get it stop popping up?

Pause the game and go into your VIP settings. There should be an option in there.

Excactly!!! This whole 3 year plan thing is crap. It's a tired excuse that im sick and tired of hearing. Even if you are in year 2 do not put out a game that is not 100% finished. I just feel bad for the average gamer out there. They must be hating themselves for buying this game.
