These last few videos were very VERY nice. Looked smooth, the presentation was excellent, seriously... that look good!

Love after the final out with the crowd cheering and standing. There is so much emotion in this game. WOW!

LOL looks like the on-deck batter and the home plate umpire weren't ready for the game to end!

Yah both end of games I've seen have been that way now... I would certainly hope that's fixed in the final copy. Sort of ruines the whole real world immersion.

The game just keeps looking better and better after each new video. I think in many ways this "zone-cursor hitting" could be more rewarding and realistic than the traditional zone hitting we've been accustomed to. I would have to agree that VC probably could have done a better job in making the batting cursor less obtrusive (similar to what we see in the Japanese baseball game everyone alludes to).
