Bat sounds seemed exactly the same as last year to me... am I wrong?

LOOOOOOOVE how Perez was up to close to 50 pitches by the end of that 3rd inning. The Pitcher/Batter interface looks MASSIVELY improved, anyone who cant see otherwise is fooling themselves. Not to mention the CPU taking pitches as well.

I figured out what's weird about the throwing animations to me. It's the same animation as before, they just sped everything up. The arm movements aren't different and the players don't throw with anymore urgency than before, they just made it all quicker. It just looks weird. I just hope that this isn't a cut and paste job. Things like this have me worried if real work was done on gameplay or tricks.

Sound identical to me too. I don't get what others are hearing.

I am glad I wasn't the only that noticed this. I am not going crazy then.

I think the stadium environment and lighting is excellent. The crowd noise is generally good, along with the stadium design and they followed through with that aspect.

The dirt, grass, and player models look nice as well. Yes the jersey numbers are a big too big, but honestly, that doesn't spoil a game for me by any means.

The hitting and pitching interface looks pretty solid actually. It was encouraging to see AI hitters taking pitches and to top it off, that annoying dust trail is gone on the dirt. It's a short offering, but anyone who doesn't think this is somewhat encouraging, is probably fooling themselves.

I am looking forward to this 2k9/2k10 comparison video. In the meantime, that was encouraging and could be improved, I am sure of it.

I have so much to say both about the good and the bad (more bad than good on a non-comparative level), but I think the best thing that comes out of this is you can really tell that VC did a lot in a year-long development cycle, and it shows. I think this series is finally going in the right direction.

Well said Blz.

Do you guys think you can save the camera settings this year. Just wondering if anybody has herd

What determines if the player can see the pitch location and type?
