Re: Major League Baseball 2K10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here (360)

Quick question... Is there the ability to turn off defensive fielding assist? I don't like not having control over my guy. A little bit, like getting your guy started towards the ball would be fine... But I literally can't stand not being able to jump or dive when I feel like it.

Question 2: Can players collide in the field? Or do they run through one another again?

Lastly, re: pitchouts... I have done it and it was a real pitchout. I have also seen the CPU do it against me, and try to throw down to first once it realized that I wasn't going. Very nice.

I think I have stolen home twice so far in the demo. Something I'm not crazy about.
Yeah, I've stolen as well, but only (IIRC) against Joba. He's got the goofy hitch in his stretch in the video game. At least I think it's him.

They use to have an auto-fielding option, but it wasn't in last years game and i'm guessing it will not be there this year. You can dive with the R trigger.

I haven't seen any collisions in the OF. From what i've read, the developers seem to only talk about 2 man collisions at the plate and on double plays being added. Nothing was mentioned about OF collisions.

That will upset me if the fielders can't collide. It will upset me more if I don't have the ability to dive/jump when I want. It's too scripted really. I tried just randomly diving, and it wouldn't let me last game.

Also... just FYI, I was able to get a triple last game too w/ Granderson... a shot to the gap in Left Center.

Yeah, I like how you don't have to use the power swing to hit HR's. For some reason, I just can't get the hang of using the power swing. I always swing and miss or foul the ball off. The game definitely doesn't have a HR problem. The A.I has only hit 1 or 2 HR off me, and I've only hit 2 or 3.

I feel like the only control I have over my fielders is when I throw the ball. Reminds me of The Show's fielding...

I agree in a essence, but the way i look at it some of the harder hit balls, because of the way the screen cuts you would have no reaction time and the ball would fly past your infield and leave you frustrated. But you should have your choice though.

Re: Major League Baseball 2K10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here (360)

Notwithstanding that I am not a huge baseball fan and for the most part I can't read a pitch to hit the ball to save my life (unless it's a meatball), this demo is really fun. I really like how they've done the pitching, in particular.

I'm actually considering buying this, and again the only baseball I ever watch each year is the World Series.
