Major League Baseball 2K10 Screenshots: Sliders, Options, Camera Views

Cursor hitting was also one of the things that made me really enjoy 2k9. That combined with swing stick hitting was one of the best hitting mechanics (fun/realistic) I've ever played. Playing almost a whole season with the yanks i had very realistic stats and strikeouts (which id never have any K's with the normal setup). Honestly its very easy for me to time a pitch and make contact. The cursor hitting added another facet of hitting that exists in real life: TRYING TO PUT THE BAT ON THE BALL and not just timing a pitch and magically making contact.

Id be pretty mad if they took it out and considering the Show uses a similiar system then the cursor (correct me if I'm wrong only played a few games), it seems like a pretty dumb move.

Exactly. Last year's sliders were a convoluted mess. You couldn't figure out what they meant and what they were supposed to do. Really idiotic.

The game is sold in other countries.

Very nice.

There's no slider for sensitivity of the pitch meter. Way too easy to pitch with pinpoint accuracy in the demo...

Did I miss anything?

Thanks for the screens. I'm hoping for a default view for play batting and pitching. Home and Away stinks because I have to pause and change the settings ever time I go on the road or come home.

Yeah very nice,we can have different cam view,but I hope once we change it we don't have to re-set it again every time we play.

No slider for foul balls, no sliders for take/swing at pitches, no arm strength, and seemingly nothing to make pitching harder is worrisome. I was hoping for something that allowed you to adjust how precise gestures needed to be for pitching.

2K has usually been pretty good with providing sliders, but there are some things missing that by rights outta be there. And since all the difficulty levels really are is slider settings, I don't expect we'll be able to get guys to take more pitches or act more intelligently just by raising the difficulty. We shouldn't have to edit the whole game to adjust this stuff.
