It doesnt effect season in nba2k9 just quick matches and online play.

i'm not going to let myself get too excited like I was before last year. But from what i've seen so far im happy. They have done just what I asked. Fix what is broken and focus on gameplay and atmosphere while not adding pointless game modes.

Swing stick + zone hitting = on release day I'll be standing at the door of EB at 10 am, waiting for it to open.

For the third year in a row I will be there when the door opens to pick my game up. Then I'll spend the next 6 hours sitting in the office looking at the impressions on OS when I should be doing what im paid to do.

I'm reserving judgment on this until "aim" is described better. It sounds like swing stick + zone hitting, I hope it's swing stick + zone hitting, but the lack of the word "zone" in the description bothers me to no end.

• Swing Stick™ Advanced – Now you can really Play Ball. Improved batting controls give batters the ability to influence hits with timing and aim. Improved hit distribution and variety deliver more hit types including spray shots, pulls, line drives and long bombs.

LOL. This will be the first time in three years I DO pick the game up on opening day... although I still may come to my senses and wait until I read some impressions.

I see what you mean. But what would be the alternative to aiming if not zone hitting?

Hitting has been changed as well for MLB 2K9, incorporating a new zone-hitting system, which is something that fans have been asking about for many years now.
