Me too! Although I also bought it for GTA IV, which I beat after a month and never touched again... On the other hand, I've been playing MLB 08 The Show ever since it came out!

This is the marketing tact it is taking, and its sole purpose.

I completely understand the point of the video and loved every second of it, which is why I started to come into the thread and see if people noticed the awesome head tracking, cinematography, fan involvement... I mean, I was just as impressed as anyone. But then I started reading posts about the sac fly, and I was like, "Wait a minute... it was just a sac fly, that wasn't the cool part of it." That's why I'm here speaking to you now.

	You're not supposed to look at the trailer for that latest action flick and say, "Man, I've seen shoot outs and car chases before. What's the big deal?" You're supposed to think, "Did you see the car chase and shot out in that trailer!!!!! This is going to be an awesome movie!"

Agreed, but I normally tell that to myself, not others. Guess I'm the only one to blame for that.

This game looks absolutely amazing! Can't wait to get it, but god damn it, the lack of equipment options is driving me insane!!!!!!!!

Great concept but Granderson would have made it rather easily.

Jim did not make it for hamburgers!

This video looks amazing.. The music is great, I hear you on that one..

# 117 SoxFan01605 @ 02/26/09 06:55 AM

This video, for some odd reason, got me so pumped up for baseball it's rediculous...lol. I'm an addict, a fool, whatever. This is the worst time of year for me...lol. I can hardly think of anything else (hobby wise...still have a grasp on reality...sorta

).

I can't wait to play this game and can't wait for the season to start. I'm going loony
