MLB 2K12 Preview (Gamespot)
 

Gamespot has posted their MLB 2K12 preview.

n addition, as you progress through a game with the same pitcher, the response in terms of how effective he is in both accuracy and speed will be shown to give you a better idea of what to expect. As you move deeper into the game and increase your pitch count, even with a fantastic pitcher, the effectiveness of all your pitches will suffer, and deciding the best course of action will come heavily into play to ensure your team leaves with a win.

Pitching is not the only aspect of the game that 2K Sports is addressing for 2K12. 2K heard the complaints about past games and is looking to adjust everything that fans of the series have noted as being weak. Fielding is being worked on to ensure better throwing by outfield players. Also, player animations, specifically for the catcher, have been heavily worked on to ensure the players move as they would in real life. Lastly, the graphics engine and lighting have been tweaked to give a more realistic viewing experience.

Already posted in another thread, but sounds just as good the second time round as well!

Saw that. Felt it should have a thread of its own. Since you know "2k ain't putting out no info" ;)

It sounds good, but I know how 2K Sports' promotes MLB 2K, so I'm holding my applause 'til I see some gameplay footage.

As always, both games have their strengths. I love the in-depth sabermetrical focus this game always seems to hit their high notes on, but now it seems extremely reflective with the AI in a dynamic sense, and not just based on statistical probability.

I can't wait to see more of what this game has to offer, specifically with how much better the PS3 version is looking in terms of visuals after seeing what the NBA 2K series was able to achieve this year (and make it almost on par with the 360 version).

Can't wait to see the new pitching mechanics in motion and the new tweaks put in place to the fielding and visuals!
