As for your comments, you simply don't know me. My analysis of video games (and wanting them to be the best possible) do not reflect my social personality.

Don't get me wrong, I think you make many good points on these forums, but...

I think this is just a matter of you missing the point of the video in the first place. It's not meant to show people something new in the game. It's meant to excite people about baseball and the fact that the Show has captured the drama of the game. This is the marketing tact it is taking, and its sole purpose.

You're not supposed to look at the trailer for that latest action flick and say, "Man, I've seen shoot outs and car chases before. What's the big deal?" You're supposed to think, "Did you see the car chase and shoot out in that trailer!!!!! This is going to be an awesome movie!"

So, there is no point in complaining that something doesn't do one thing when it is so specifically and obviously meant to do another.

The video looks really good, but I had to snicker at the presentation. The slow-mo + corny music reminded me of one too many inspirational sports movies.

But, I'm sure it bounced because after he throws the ball, it has backspin, which is appropriate. On the third cut to the ball, it has forward spin just as the catcher grabs it. The only way that could happen is if the ball bounces on the dirt. The video didn't show this so I'm going to nitpick because it's the fun thing to do.

Everyone knows Ichiro has a cannon, and an accurate one at that...
