The person playing was swinging at everything.

That last pitch to Tulo wasn't even close...

I did like how the cpu actually threw balls though

Wow...I haven't looked at 2k in about 3-4 years, but that was impressive from the last thing I saw (2k8). Presentation is very nice. Still some small 2K'ish things like Fowler not running through first, Madson backing up 3rd instead of home, etc, but overall nicer than I would have thought.

Re: MLB 2K11 Video: Philadelphia Phillies vs. Colorado Rockies

I'm disappointed that the HUD is almost exactly the same as it was last year. It struck me as being very bland last season and it will only be worse this year.

Gameplay looks solid although the 7:30 mark really worries me. The Full-Count pitch to Fowler comes in very high and somehow the swing results in a grounder to Second? How in the heck did he get on top of that, considering where his bat was? I paused it to see if it made any sense...



Now maybe I'm missing something here, but if you show me that picture in real life, the last place I'm going to predict that ball traveling to is Second Base via a grounder. The pitch is very high, the bat is under the ball and you get a ground ball to the Second Baseman? I'm confused.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm pretty excited about the game still. This moment just jumped out at me.

Re: MLB 2K11 Video: Philadelphia Phillies vs. Colorado Rockies

I like the view when the ball is hit and the overall feel. I also like the return of some real-time elements; the clip of Romero walking back to the mound after giving up a hit looks great.

That said, some of the wonky elements from the last two years return. The sudden "snap" out of an animation... the runner who cross the plate, stops, then turns to the dugout... and severe clipping in the dugout (players actually overlapped at one point).

All that stuff is cosmetic, though. I think VC is on the right track and I have hopes this will be the best playing MLB2K game in years.

No more blue flashes! Woohoo!

I also liked the soft liner to Utley near the end. Last year, that was a Willie Mays over the shoulder catch.
