BTW, I had the game freeze on me last night for the first time in over a month.

It was at the "let's check out the league leaders in _____ graphic" in the 6th inning. I tapped A and boom. Frozen.

I blamed it on my wife who had just walked into the room

But that's not real baseball. The vast majority of HRs hit are pulled by players in real life. The only guys that show significant opposite field power are guys that hit 30+ HRs and even guys like Bautista still pull most of their HRs. Go ahead and pull the hit charts up on MLB.com for any player and track how many home runs are hit to the opposite field. It's rare for the average baseball player.

True, but the majority of pulled HR's in real life are from pitches that were middle of the plate or on the inner half. It's much harder to pull an outside pitch. 2K did a pretty good job of reflecting that in this game, though it's not perfect because guys that have a ton of power can pull outer-third of the plate stuff, but even so, I'm guessing the majority of Bautista's homers weren't on pitches on the outer-third.

Regardless, this is something that is kind of hard to perfect in a baseball game, and I think the system in 2K11 is pretty good especially since it provides such nice hit variety in general. If this is one of the biggest gripes, then clearly we have a pretty darn good game on our hands.

^^^^

Exactly.

A couple of years ago everyone complained about how it didn't matter where you threw the ball, players were pulling HRs on the outside of the plate and hitting ones to the opposite field on the inside of the plate.

I think they have it very close to correct, now.

Is there any footage or video of this game post patch? I'm thinking of picking it up again, but not sure if it's worth it.

If you can't find anything, let me know. I could make a video of the PC version.
