Thanks for the responses on the hitting fellas. BTW, the lighting as AMAZING. Wow, as the game falls to dusk? Incredible.

SCEA definitely got Pablo Sandoval's proportions correct...

I hated Rex as much as the next guy here, but Karros is definitely not the answer to any of the problems in that department. Other than simply having a less annoying speaking voice than Rex, it's probably worse in every other way.

It has a very tacked on sound to it, and hardly ever sounds natural. Plus, it doesn't help that Karros sounds completely different than the other two guys. I don't know if they recorded him in a different manner, but whatever it is, awkward sounding commentary is the result.

On the plus side, this is basically the only gripe I have so far... everything else is great.

My thoughts:

1. Analog pitching......LOVE IT
2. Analog hitting.......HATE IT. Switched to zone hitting
3. Camera angles....love the fact there's so many. If you can't find an angle you like you're blind
4. Announcers.....LOVE the fact there's now a slider to turn off the annoying ones. Karros like Hudler annoys me so he will not be heard in my games. Thank you for this slider, SCEA. Thank you.
5. Gameplay is butter smooth. The Show is the sole reason I bought a PS3
