Since this is the only baseball game I'll have the opportunity to play, I'm going to be optimistic here. The list doesn't wow me, but it does suggest that 2k realizes what The Show gets so right and is making adjustments to do some of those same things.

I played the hell out of The Show, and what I loved most about it was the immersive atmosphere. The living world stuff sounds like 2k's concession to needing to nail the feel of being at a baseball game down better.

doesnt sound bad...I like the living ballpark ideas, but if we get 2k8 graphics instead of how good 2k7 looked, it will still be disappointing.

With some of these updated things, and NO jon and joe and a playable frame rate, it COULD be potentially playable.

but...we have been burned before. ie, vendors moving in the crowd was promised for 2k7

Sounds good. I don't want promises. I want to know they are moving in the right direction and I think this list shows that. Zone hitting and the Reelmaker will be nice.

Good news about zone hitting and ballpark atmosphere. I hope they improve the audio too.

Meh, the list is ok. But the cards they should have thrown away, but I love the new sig styles and celebrations! Yeah, finally walk off atmosphere. If the gameplay sucks again, I'm going to the ps3..

Living ballpark does sound very intriguing. Wondering how that will play out. I didn't hate 2K8...but didn't love it either. Can't wait to see what 2K9 will bring us

60fps with 2k7's graphics and tight gameplay+zone hitting=Good baseball
