Can you have the option of a 2 players at the same time home run derby like in MVP 05 or do you have to wait for the other person to get done first?

Will they have 4 players for games? For instance, in ASB 2004, you could have up to 4 people playing a game and you could choose which players they controlled.

Is there rain this year?

Love that there are different hitting pitching difficulties this year! Any clue what "pitch delay" is???? Look at video #2, :37 secs.

I wonder if that has something to do with coming set/balks??? Maybe? Pretty please???

It's an aid to help users with pitch speed when hitting.

There are no balks this year. I asked Russell.

I've always been hoping that the ball would be followed by like 20 feet and we would get to see it fly and bounce wherever like the old World Series game? or one of those for the Genesis cannot remember. But I am not going to sound super disappointed. This year's game needs to be about immersion: animations, stances & jerseys, lighting, stadiums, and gameplay. Whatever else after that I don't care about. This will be my first BB game in a decade and I have chosen it wisely. 09 had too many mistakes and flaws. They went overboard this year and looked to have fixed everything but player models which again I think some of you are honestly neurotic to care that much about. I want me those perfect stadiums. I am so glad I hear they fixed the mushy jersey's from last years game. Everything looks to be really really refined and that is completely awesome. Hope they worked on those fans even more.

Welcome.

But I am not going to sound super disappointed.

Good decision as there are some who are treating what they've seen as if it's a final build and they are going to have to just live with what they've seen.

Aways to go yet, folks.

in the phills/cards game, the pre-game lineup showed carpenter was batting 8th! anyone know if this was manually adjusted, or a default lineup? this may mean tht each team actually has their own playing style or strategies! or maybe im just looking into a minor detail like that too much...

Just like last year. LaRussa bats his pitchers in the 8th hole. Its the default lineup. Not new.

Re: MLB '10: The Show Hands-On Impressions @ CES w/ Russell_SCEA *Day 2*

LaRussa has batted his pitchers in the 8th spot in real life.

I miss seeing Amy Lee in his avatar.

She might just make it back up there. Maybe some Christina Scabbia? Hehe.

Back on topic, I hope the sleeve glitch is fixed and I hope the rumor I heard about no hidden stances or deliveries is true.

Do we have the option to play shorter innings in franchise mode??
