Major League Baseball 2K9 Video: Tigers @ Indians

Is this an earlier copy? Because it seems to be running at 30fps. I know the g4 video was very smooth.

I just bought my ps3 this week so I can get the show, but this game is looking pretty good. Has a very good TV presentation fell to it and the crowd seems very life-like and reacts appropriately. I think I will have to buy this on my 360 as well

Thanks for the vid Steve. Man that commentary sounds really good, and it's great to see you were able to adjust sliders to get the CPU to swing/look

The video was encoded at a lower framerate than the actual game. But yeah, the game in the G4 was almost certainly a newer version of the game.

I think I saw one strike where the batter watched it go by, the rest were swinging strikes. Nice to see deeper pitch counts.

But the real problem remains flyballs. Four flyballs, zero groundballs in that vid. It looks like Steve lowered the Power slider, resulting in "looping" flyballs. But as I said before, this is the #1 issue with this series, and there's no fix for it other than lowering ratings. Sliders won't do it.

So, I guess you can remove all the graphics for pitching? The gesture selection and big circle graphic is nowhere to be seen in this video. That'd be nice.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. But I believe the only reason you didn't see the gesture selection and big circle graphic was because Steve was not controlling the pitching. It was AI vs AI.

It certainly would be nice to be able to pitch this way as well. We'll see.
