That's the thing. the numbers i can live with. I just hope they ironed out the bugs and gameplay. Buying a game then having to wait 2 months for htem to fix all the bugs they should have fixed on release is a bit annoying. Or not even fixing them at all and having to wait until next year all the time. Overall the game looks great. But 2k has a way of not polishing their games and getting their AI right. This is where the show walks all over every other sports game is their attention to detail. Their gameplay is rock solid and they have the little aethetics like sewn on letters and the right number sizes.

Yes in theory 2k has closed the gap considerably. I look at this game. There isn't a huge difference. A few graphic anomolies i can live with. But it's the little details. Little stuff like just how the ball comes off the bat or what a player decides to do in a certain count. Franchise bugs.. That stuff adds up especially when it's gameplay and gamebreaking related. We will have to see I guess if 2k really paid attention to getting this game right. The major surface stuff looks great to me. 2k did work as far as the overall look of the game and how it plays. That's not the issue though. That's a big part of it and a good first step. That's all it is though. You can have a beautiful game in theory, but if all these little things don't add up it can play like crap.

I thought it looked like it had some potential.

I'm Gameflying it like I do everything so if it sucks...oh well, I send it back.

I have a feeling I'll be keeping it for a little while though.

I too could care less if the crowd was a bunch of stick figures.
What the crowd looks like has no bearing on wether I will play a game or not.

You don't consider that icing? So in your opinion, having a crowd eating hot dogs, drinking beer, and having distinguishable fingerprints is something they should have focused on this year rather than . . . ya know, fixing the outfielders catching fly balls? I see your logic.

IMO the crowd looks fine and this is extremely nitpicky.

Agreed, the crowd looks fine the way it is, and I would rather have them focus on things that mattered when you play the game. Get that right, and the fluff things that get added later to build atmosphere can be worked on down the road.

i liked it. can't wait to try out the demo.
Glad the bat sounds alot better.
I love how you can see the ball coming off the bat after contact with the behind the pitcher camera. The Show doesnt show that this year. It switches to the fielding camera a bit too quiyck this year.

What the F ? I didn't say anything like that and I didn't mean anything like that.

All I meant was that it's below the standard, IN MY OPINION, to have a crowd like that in a sports video game in 2010.

Yea, we all have opinions and they are gonna be different - like fingerprints - so why am I being crucified for expressing my opinion ?
