If that's he case it sounds like check swings should work just fine then. My concern as well, I live by the check swing. My walk numbers depend on it.

If it is like the MVP College game, then yes.

And to me it appears that way.

2K's was still button presses mapped to a stick ... to as stick (K. Butler).

Was not true analog, it still reacted digitally like you pressed a button.

Yes if you don't cross the threshold your batter won't swing.

There was a system I recommended a year ago where there were two ways to check swing, one being the way that you mentioned and the other was to snap your stick back after thrusting it forward. Thing of the "back to center" check swing as the kind where the player checks but holds his bat out there, and the other is where the player starts to go and then snaps the bat back, trying to hold from swinging.

So once you go forward with your swing, there's no going back, correct? That's cool anyway, it would be too difficult to do haha. I suppose I could only do it with a Move controller.

NCAA had both of those options for a check swing.

Yep, and this sounds spot on to MVP's system.

By far less complicated then adding live trading to a shared roster file among 30 users.

I wouldn't worry yourself too much about it.
