Major League Baseball 2K9 Screenshots

They need to release a trailer to show gameplay. I guess it's good that the lincecum screens were decent. Can't tell much more from those however...

People need something to complain about.

2K hadn't released any screens, everyone bitches. 2K releases them, they look good, and everyone goes "graphics mean nothing". They can't win. I ask this, why did everyone want media and were complaining that none was released then? You have info and now some screens. Still not good enough.

Trust me, when/if they release a video, it'll be the same thing.

Actually that's the first thing that hit me last year. The ugly visuals and then the framerate etc.

Oh come on now OhCanada, don't get your beaver all bunched up in a knot. This isn't about gameplay at this point. It's about the first screens being released, and they look great.

It's freaking hilarious. People want screenshots so they can see the graphics, then bitch that graphics mean nothing.

And the people saying graphics mean nothing is crap. If we had 2k3 graphics people would be bitching. Graphics are one of the primary factors of realism. These pictures look pretty damn good to me. Hopefully the gameplay follows suit.

Anxiously hoping that we would get a good baseball game on 360. It's good to finally see something get out that does look pretty good and hopefully we get more and more good things in the upcoming month. Maybe their strategy is more to bum rush people at the end so instead of thinking about that steady stream of info you got from The Show, you remember the crazy blitz of info you just read on 2K and buy it instead.

So very true EG, I think the screen grabs look very nice. I would like to see some of players who were not in house to be designed though. Impressed with what I saw though, and my hopes for this game continue to accelerate.

Now, as someone mentioned, it will be nice to see the game in action...but I understand the term "babysteps", and appreciate the screen grabs today.
