Very interesting list.

I can not wait for information to start rolling out. I have so much confidence in SCEA San Diego.

You want a celebrity that makes Vietnamese soup to throw the first pitch?

Haha figured. I think the word you were looking for is faux. Come on man. I expect nothing but the best from fellow Oakland fans. It isn't too difficult to do a google search these days. Plus spell checks work wonders, especially in the title. Nothing worse than misspelling a word in the title for everyone to see as long as the thread stays on the first page.

Otherwise, great ideas.

But I need 3 corrections for "11" (start the Spinal Tap jokes now!).... 1. Fielding cams.... need the option for something more subtle. Some type of view that pans back and give you more of what's happening on the field at the same time. Cams following the ball around might be good for some golf shots, but not in a baseball game. 2. Better motion/momentum .... movement going to a ball in play or coming off the bag after a catch is way too abrupt, last gen-like in a way. People don't move like that. That includes makes directional changes/cuts. 3. Throwing motions .... I know I had this question answered about pre-determining where you're going to throw, but that's not always realistic. I should have the option to do that or to stop, set and throw, without it looking like a hornet just crawled into my cup! The off-balance, wrong-footed throw should be programmed into certain types of situations and angles, not when I purposely stop and push the button to throw to a base. *additional minor* I'm not overly concerned about cut scenes, but the constant helmet taps, whether rounding the bag during a HR or when going back to the dugout after striking out should be minimized. ----now I have to learn how to not strike out so much!

Considering you just got the game and started playing it, after some time, those things you mentioned won't bother you. The game grows on people.

dont think i have ever seen the word in writing just heard it in conversation.. so really had no idea, and it just sounds like it is spelled that way. english was one of my word and most hated subjets in school for every year i had it. well at least now i know...

Wrong. You don't want to assume what will bother someone else or not. I've played games with and without those things and won't go into it here as it is not acceptable and I want to honor that.

What you're talking about is complacency. If they want to continually build on their structure and their model and since it appears that they are interested in making the most realistic baseball game in both gameplay AND appearance (globally), then the things in my list are an almost must, especially when it comes to player movement and flexibility of commands.
