Also, I noticed something strange. In the controls, the fielding buttons are reverse. For example, it says triangle throws to home and X throws to second. Which isn't the case.

Ok 1 game is.
The first thing I need to do is unlearn The Show 08.
I'm so used to having to swing fast to get ahead of the ball that it's killing me now as the swings in 09 are certainly faster.
Like I said earlier I haven't had trouble check swinging with certain players but some players I can't. I love that.

I'll need to (and want to) play some more but so far I'm LOVING it.
game is beautiful.

Oh I have zero framerate issues BTW.....

More to come..

That's good enough for me. Looking forward to this awesome game.

Just finished my 2nd game...this time on legend with a few sliders tweaked (Errors, contact, power lowered for me and consistency, strikes and control lowered for the CPU)

Rays 0 2 0
Phillies (me) 1 2 1


I still have yet to draw a walk, that could be a problem again, but K's, doubles and weak outs (!) are very good.

The double in that game from the rays would have been only a single in 08, that is HUGE!

CPU couldn't touch me (Hamels), only 5 baserunners (including the E) over 4 Innings.

I drew 2 walks in 4 innings in my first full game (2nd game overall). So they're definitely there, don't worry!
