There's still no way a CF gets to that ball before it hits the wall. It's impossible.

All of the hits to the OF get there in a real hurry, and the OFers are just as quick getting to the ball.

This game still stinks as far as i'm concerned, it looks terrible, the players are still twichy and jerky, the bat sound is terrible and the catcher catching the ball sounds more like mike tyson working out on the heavy bag. Also whats up with the bright green flash on strikes and blue flashes on balls, i don't get it. I think the best thing 2k could do with this game is find the closest garbage can.

Actually, most will use a combination of both, with most of them now opting for the traditional sound effects and real music in between at bats. However, most will use an organ in between pitches, not as often as they used to, but they're still there

One thing I know is, Wrigley Field looked awesome in this vid.

The pitching overlay on the left side is way to big and it takes up most of the left side of the screen when pitching. The announcing is not good but better then last year. Lastly, the crowd id still non existant, what a shame..

*yawn*

Imagine a Spring without dandelions in your yard. Imagine a summer without the mosquitos. Imagine a trip across the bridge with no fear of being eaten.

Someday.

i'm only stating the obvious truth, i bought 2k5 2k6 and 2k7 but opted out last year, to me they need to scrap this game engine and start with something new. By the way when does 2k's licensing agreement run out.

Well, the video we're watching only displays every-other frame.

Watch the HD videos posted in the forum. It's ten times as smooth.

Sliding is controlled by hitting a direction on the left stick and pressing the X (Square on PS3) button.
