Well, you're in the minority then. The game looks impressive though not perfect, but it's not the final game yet either so it should be even better when it's released.

It may not be impressive as in "wow, this is the most amazing game I've ever seen."

Given the issues it had to overcome in one year's time however, some of what they've seemed to accomplish is fairly impressive.

Obviously the true test will be playing it for yourself, but at the very least, on the surface it represents the game MUCH better than in years past.

Agreed. I think it's going to be a fun game to play. Looks like it should be tweakable gameplay wise also. When it's out, same with The Show, time has to be spent tweaking the sliders, etc. to fit your individual needs as every gamer plays differently. Patience is needed in the first week of release.

I agree

Zone Hitting Just looks utterly ridiculous.

You end up watching your bat instead of the ball.
Does anyone really play with that on?

I know u can turn it off, in both games ( 2k9, The Show)
But really, Zone Batting should go the waay of the Dodo.

I am really impressed with this game.

They got rid of that claustrophobic fielding camera with the baserunners in the corners of the screen, to a much more, natural, fielding camera.

Perhaps even better camera angles than.. the Show???

I might be buying both games!

Keep zone/cursor/timing etc... The more options the better.
Not everyone likes the same things.
