Correct, they are just showing you how the ball reacts when struck and when it makes contact with the surface how the spin changes. More or less showing you the ball has personality and it is not just a prefixed outcome.

Must be blinded by the $1 million gimmick as your "million times better" claim. Go back to your part of the forum...

Gotta give SCEA credit for actually going into the game's code and making changes that individually may seem subtle, but collectively add up to the most realistic feeling baseball game I have ever seen.

Shouldn't the ball be bouncing off to the right, at least a little, after hitting the ground in the video #8? It's as if the rotation of the ball has nothing to do with the movement of the ball after the first bounce.

@thevaliantx: maybe it is not in the game. But in this video i don't see much sidespin and therefore no reason for the ball to bounce off to the right. What I really like is that the ball loses the little spin it had after the first bounce.

just wondering if anyone knows or have any idea if the new playoff format for both league adding another wild card team this year were added already in the game or do we have to wait for a patch? i've heard 2k12 supported it already, dont know how true but, can't wait for the SHOW tomorrow...
