This is totally worth turning off an episode of American Dad.

Cool, I can sneak a few games in before going to work.
I went ahead and dl'd Top Spin 4 too. Should be good.

Go to the Marketplace website. Go to upcoming games and you will see 2K11, just click on it and add it to your que. Then login to xbox live on your console and go to active downloads. It should start.

All I see are game trailers.

Whenever someone gets to play it could you comment on whether we can change difficulty levels, sliders or cameras? I'm hoping they have commentary in the demo too.

# 10 Blzer @ 03/01/11 06:57 AM

2K demos are always so limited; I'd be surprised if they ditched the commentary yet again, even though it's one of the best facets of their game.

This game's framerate is very poor when balls are hit into play. I pray this is from an older build and that this is fixed.

# 13 WaddupCouzin @ 03/01/11 07:17 AM

It seems to play alot smoother to me! Fielding is better. I'm still pitching but I'm enjoying the fielding.

# 14 ocat @ 03/01/11 07:21 AM

Loving it so far, 2k have just nailed the pitching! Liking how after each pitch the catcher throws the ball back to the pitcher and then he walks back to the mound instead of just instantly teleporting back to the mound like last year.

# 15 WaddupCouzin @ 03/01/11 07:27 AM

Just saw the 2nd baseman misplay a ball but he was still able to get me out on a close play at first base.

I'm really liking the camera angle once the ball is put into play (Im batting).

Seems to only be on the foul balls then.

Looking forward to all your impressions guys! I'll post some of my own later today!

Gah I cant wait to get home from school

# 19 bigfnjoe96 @ 03/01/11 08:04 AM

The new Hitting Camera angle is awesome. Game plays smoothly. The animations look smooth also. The RTP still needs some smoothing out. The animations of runners rounding bases during replays looks better.

DEMO is only 3 innings.

Gotta get to work. Will check-in later

# 20 Hopeful Cubsfan @ 03/01/11 08:05 AM

The Good:
- The bat during check swings stops where you tell it to now. Also, the pitcher won't start his delivery until after the call has been made at 1st/3rd.
- Hitting camera is fantastic
- Bobbled a ball at second, overthrew the 1st basemen trying to make a desperate throw
- Fielders do not powerslide to their position anymore. During pickles, the running and throwing animations are amazingly better.
- Ball physics are very believable. It ricoches off of walls and dirt the way you'd expect it to.
- Good hit variation. Homered with Burrell and Cruz, got some gapper doubles with Moreland and Beltre. Stole a base with Kinsler and Borbon.
-

The Bad:
- very poor framerate when the ball is hit occasionally, happens especially with foul balls and pop flies.
- Catcher magically had possession of a ball that wasn't close to him. I chucked it home with Borbon, and it was maybe 2 feet to his left, but then it teleported into his glove.
