Nothing huge, but pretty obvious it was incorrect.

Ok rocket arm might not be the best term. In any event, do you feel that the outfielder throwing the ball from RF wall to 3B on two hops is realistic?

Depending on the outfielder, yes...

When I had an invite to an MLB team tryout, we had outfield drills. They wanted us to get the ball inside a garbage can laying down a hair in front of home plate on the third base line. We had to do this on at least ONE hop deep in RF.

There were some guys there getting the ball to it with no hop and hitting the backstop fence corner with plenty of juice to spare.

Great find.... the vids are awesome, of course.

I'll say this too: It's good to see I'm not the worst player out there, because whoever was playing in these vids was TERRIBLE, lol.

Well...I have come to the conclusion that I am not a fan of broadcast cam. I have trouble picking up the baseball.

Loving the way the ball ricochets off the wall. Enjoyed watching the fielder chase the baseball around in the outfield as if he was trying to catch a chicken..lol

I was kinda thinking the same thing about not being able to pick up the ball. I'm still going to play several exhibition games from that view to see how much better it is in real life. Worst comes to worst, maybe I'll just use it when batting.

I love the way broadcast cam looks, but I fear I may have the same problem. I may end up using it when I'm batting, but then switch to classic fielding mode when I'm playing defense. It should be noted that a lot of the people who have played the game say it doesn't take long to adjust, however. We'll see.

I am not trying to start anything here, but I don't see a whole lot different from 09. Obviously the graphic overlays and lighting are improved, but other than that I didn't see much that was entirely different. Now I am not some one that cares too much about stances (as long as it's close) and I really don't care about the color combinations on gloves, shoes, underwear, etc.

The commentary is largely the same, and if they include the "get down, get down, get down!" line I will not be very happy. BUT I do like the Show's commentary better than 2k's for the simple reason that less is better IMO. I find the more complex you make it the more obvious and glaring the repititions are.

I am looking forward to the enhancments they made to both the Franchise mode and RTTS though. I found RTTS a little dry in 09 because I like to be immersed in the game and not just play the one little bit you do. I want to feel my contribution to the outcome.

Anyways I am going to buy it as I do like this product.
