Trying to be patient. This game is tough! I've only won on Rookie level. Every time I play on Veteran level, six games now, I lose. Close games, by one or two runs. Does anybody else sense the rubber-band affect? Like in racing games, when you get the lead, the AI comes back right away. I've played with the strike zone on as well as off, doesn't seem to matter. Lastly, I'm trying to be patient when batting. I work many 2-0, or 3-1 counts in my favor, but have yet to get walked. Not even once. Been beaned once. Didn't hurt much.

Alright, i have a question..
Playing the demo currently and enjoying this game. Which is a surprise as i am an aussie and i struggle watching the sport on TV(unless its a high scoring game)
Anyway, i am a noob when it comes to baseball and learning all the intricacies of baseball. Anyway, the question: - would i benefit more from playing MLB 08 before 09? or should i bite the bullet and get 09? thoughts?

08 plays totally different from 09 and 09 looks so much better. So if it were me, I'd get the 09 game for sure.

This isn't a wrestling game, in this game it doesn't matter what version you get, nothing changed except players on different teams and new modes. I would start at 08 since it had Derby. But it's your choice

Why would you answer a question that was asked almost a year ago? Hopefully by now he made a choice
