Major League Baseball 2K9 Diary - Part 2 (ESPN)
 
ESPN has posted part 2 of their Major League Baseball 2K9 diary.

Quote:

"Anyway, the Giants start the season 12-8 with the new lineup and on the brand new code I just got from 2K Sports. I have to say, the game is playing even smoother (and smarter) than the previous build of the game. Not only have the frame-rate issues been almost completely ironed out, I just saw a play where there was a grounder to second with a man on first and the base runner actually stopped in his tracks so that the second baseman couldn't simply tag him and throw to first to complete the double play. Just goes to show some of the AI enhancements to the game."

Wow, the Futures game is in this year? Awesome. Hopefully this will be a way to play with your draft picks and prospects in the absence of the AA and A levels of the minors.

Not sure if The Show 08 or 09 has the Futures game, but the last games I played extensively that did have it were ASB2004 and 2005.

Great Franchise Blog by Jon Robinson as always. Glad to hear Jon got an updated code & that code seemed more stable in the frame rate dept. Also good to hear the AI seems more realistic in it's ways. Hope this also means more realistic AB from the AI..

The ability to play the Futures Game is SWEET...

I Liked what i read. Maybe the people who were complaining about framerate may change their toon now LOL. Great read though this looks like it's going to be a great game this year. Big step up from 2k8.

Also the trade logic seems better. The Matt Cain for Lance Berkman deal seems realistic to me. Also Marlon Byrd for Zito cause Zito is on the decline at the moment. Also you have to take into consideration he was trading players and releasing players to dump salary.

Make that a huge step up from last year. And that is great news about the frame rate issue being ironed out. The more info we get the better this game sounds. Looks like a monster year for baseball fans.
