Honestly this is the only thing i disagree with you in. I feel the controls are tight. Maybe your not use to them or something.

Any sign of the AI batters taking any pitches in the zone?

I have too, and I can tell you that it varies...blanket statements don't apply here. 2K7, for example, was much better in the final version than the demo IMO. To each his own though...was just throwing it out there

Impressions to come

Idk whart you mean by tight but they tried to make the fielding like mvp but failed i really wanted this game to be good but i see yet another 70-75 review rating

This is going to stop now. There are NOT going to be accusations that people are "spies" for 2K trying to pump the game up. Basically what some of you are saying is because one person's opinion differs from yours, they are wrong.

Ends now.

Some of you might want to re-read the read before posting thread again as well.

Back to impressions of the demo.

Of course Percival throws a fastball down the middle in an 0-0 game for me using Howard to jack it out. Felt scripted.

They come out of dugout, around plate is a spread out fashion, Howard looks hilarious in a Benny Hill type jerky run, and that was it.

The animations need work. Just detracts from the game.

And every time I see Howard catch a ball at first, I swear he is going to slip a disc in his back or pull a hammy.

The controls, IMO, I thought 2K7 were a bit better. This just seems to lock you it too much. Or maybe I am just used to The Show now. For some reason it doesn't feel fluid.

As for ExtremeGamer, I agree, but you should also mention people should not jump on people, and accuse them of finding things wrong just to find things wrong. It is an impressions thread after all.

And to think the PS3 version is merely a port of what this is....

Ima gonna need to stroll on over to Amazon & cancel my pre-order very shortly. I never rent games, so maybe I'll try & pick it up off Ebay for less.

I also noticed that fans go for balls if hit in the stands
