Major League Baseball 2K9 Video: Orioles @ Bluejays (Hits)

[kGinGreen]

Seriously though if you look at the ortiz video and watch the kirk gibson hr in real life it's exactly the same thing. There is no reason why Ortiz couldnt do that. He normally doesnt hit hrs off hte end of the bat and pull them like that but still.

I understand the concern about the HR because until we play the game, all we have to go by is history and that's not too promising in this regard...lol. It's perfectly plausible, given the game code, while tweaked, has not been changed at it's base (from what the developers have said...I claim no personal knowledge of such things...lol).

Obviously, it's a different developer so the chance is there that it's changed. I don't personally have a problem with it being possible to happen as long as it's not like it was in previous installments. We'll see for sure soon enough.

EDIT: To add, I'm actually on the opposite side of this concern/curiousity (whatever you want to call it) than Blzer, for example. I was more bugged by the Ortiz's shot (based on the previous problems in the series) than Markakis. At least he sort of went with the pitch. Ortiz mostly pulled the outside and low pitch. To each his own though.

oh quit it. He wasn't trolling and stop acting as if you're the spokesperson for the game. He was talking about his opinions on THE GAME and nothing more.

See, that's the point of posting videos, to get opinions on what he/she saw and felt from that video. At no point was any comparison made towards any other game.

Relax.

It seems that the video boards in the Rogers Centre outfield walls aren't working...anyone else notice this? I remember seeing screenshots of the Dodgers Stadium outfield wall LED's working, so it's kinda weird Rogers doesn't have them working.

Maybe it needs to be a franchise game?

I believe the scoreboard don't work this year. At least that is what one of them said. I think.

One of the producers said out of town scoreboards don't work. Also he said something about they show player stats instead of scores.

Q: my question is will the scoreboards in the stadiums be updated through the game A: The out of town scoreboards do not update, unfortunately. We do have some player information up at times. Live scoreboards is something we all have wanted for a long time but it is really difficult to do. Keep your fingers crossed.
