Was just about to post this, I am really liking the looks of things. Wanna see more, obviously, but it's looking sharp to me.

Re: Gameplay video

Hitting looks pretty much identical... I did notice that Delmon Young's profile picture had a Tigers' hat so maybe those are more up to date this year. Another thing to be hopeful for is that I saw hot/cold zones while hitting as well as the additional stats (bats .140 in a 1-2 count, etc)... I know the latter was in exhibition last year but hopefully it made EVERY mode this year.

I like the additional pitching statistics (showing location basically). Hopefully those aren't too buried in menus but it likely is (hitting left on control pad instead of it being put up automatically). Nice dive by Bosch... I don't remember ever diving last year. Could be a button I missed though.

Visually it looks the same. Too bad Comerica's scoreboard doesn't appear to be working (everyone's batting .000).

Re: Gameplay video

I think they are going to talk about the "mixing up pitches and location" stuff too much. I didn't really see anything there that showed a big improvement. At the end of the inning Peralta still makes no effort to break up the double play. As soon as a batter is out they instantly slow down.

Re: Gameplay video

Maybe it was being on youtube but when the foulball was hit by the Angels player i noticed a slight hickup in framerate and also when the doubleplay ball was hit.

To bad we didn't see a few more balls put in play instead of just k's.

I also agree the "mixing up pitches and location" seemed overdone.

Re: Gameplay video

Outside of that transition animation on the throw to second to start the double play, everything looked pretty good imo.

It has a very 2k11 feel, which isn't a bad thing. It's really hard to tell until it's in your very own hands. Still a day one purchase, as I had a good time with last years iteration.
