Good stuff. I love how Matty V goes, "As the player declines in ability, so does the base target." while showing an error by Derek Jeter. LOL

I'm loving the analog throwing, it's very natural feeling. The hitting is taking more time to learn for me.

It is nice to hear there will be a practice mode for fielding, and not just RTTS fielding.

Give that man a Gold Glove!...Jeter is a below average defender at best these days.

I think that's why they showed Jeter, because there has been so much made about his declining defensive skills.

Wow is it just more or did the graphics look UNREAL in that video and significantly better than in the demo? That gives me a lot of hope that the demo is just compressed or whatever and the retail version's graphics will be considerably sharper.

Or maybe I'm the only one who thought that way about this video?

is sliding head first into first base an assist feature or can we enable this animation????

The user has to control the headfirst slide into first. Up on right stick. Probably won't happen with auto base running.

Definitely not man. They look a lot better than the demo, I really hope they just compressed the demo and this is how it actually looks.

This is what I really needed. Too many errors especially at the short stop position throwing to second. Also, it seems that I am having problems diving when using this feature.

This is good news considering it was mentioned this wouldn't make it...I'm loving HoF fielding for the demo.

I finally just played my 1st 2 games w/o any errors!

# 13 Entiae @ 02/26/11 04:26 AM

David Wright with the bare-handed pickup.. beautiful.

I really like these new controls. I haven't made an error yet, either.

I was surprised by them mentioning that as well. They just needed a little push!

# 17 JermaineDye05 @ 02/26/11 04:25 PM

I like how when declining ability is mentioned, they show Jeter who then makes an errant throw.

I'm assuming SCEA doesn't think he deserved that GG either.

Legend fielding: routine out .. Usually

And the next batter gets a double down the line....
Even though it sucked... It was awesome.
