A month ago i had no question in my mind that i wasnt going to touch this game. Now its not such an easy decision. If 2k keeps releasing videos like this, I may be swayed into buying this year. Its still not a buy for me yet, but im slowly being pushed off the fence.

By far, that DD was the most impressive to date. That Jonathan Rivera is going to be in charge of the franchise some day...he sounds like he has some good ideas and implemented some nice features.

Fingers crossed that the sliders work correctly as described. 2K games are notorious for sliders that either do nothing, do not work correctly or work backwards.

Looks like I'll have to import this for my ps3. Would rather get on 360 but this game is NEVER released in Australia. Thank god for region free PS3 games!

Yeah baby! That is the most helpful diary yet. I love the video to support the explanations of changes. Some excellent tweaks and changes. A real dose of realism here.

I am looking forward to this sooooooo much!

Dude! Its out worldwide this year! I've got it preordered and I'm in New Zealand (Not Christchurch, thankfully).

That's the type of media blitz I'm talking about! The fielding aspect of the game looks EXTREMELY fun, reminds me of the great days of MVP 05 fun-factor wise. The pitching and fielding look like they will be quite exceptional this year, and hopefully the batting gets to that point (via great ball physics and hit variety).

Cheers mate thanks for that info. Just checked some local site and looks like we get it on the 18th March, better late than never I suppose!
