really love seeing the other teams bullpen and you can plan ahead on who the other team may bring in..

Had a few infield hits off of choppers and did see pitch counts drop down around the 5th - 6th inning.. Love the scoring on the top of the screen that indicates infield hits or error rulings.. Ended up losing 7 - 2 as Billingsley got bombed.. (I play on All Star in 09, but this was veteran..) My bullpen got hammered.. When the manager of BB asked if I needed a chair I took it as a hint to bail..

HAHA, I got asked the same thing!! I took the chair

I would've LOVED it if they'd offered me a chair.

The large kid playing Madden got one, but I had to stand.

Simmed a season to see if u played other teams for interleague play. That is def fixed this year!

For the twins, the 2010 season they play versus the brewers, braves, and rockies. Then its @ the brewers, braves, mets, and phillies. The next season, it was versus braves, cards, phillies and another team i think. And it was @ cards, marlins, and another team. Anyway, it was good to see that it changed cuz i remember last year, u played the same interleague games every year or somethin weird about it.

Unless they changed Wrigley, isn't there a little thing that sticks out of the fence that pretty much makes it impossible to rob a home run from there? I mean sure you can scale the ivy and get something that falls short of there, but I don't think you can actually take away a home run there (that is, unless they removed it in real life).

ok, ill comp u that one.
that was good.
heres the thing, i kid because i care.
I like paps.
I am one of the very few yankee fans who has no problem with the red sox.
its just a game and without that rivalry all these years, honestly, that division would have sucked and on top of that baseball itself would suffer.
i have fun with it.
besides, life is too short and so is pedroia.

back to the BB thing.

I noticed at my best buy the rfirst time it was 480, when i went back the game looked a lot better, so i checked.
1080.

LMAO..the rivalry is unreal. I have the MLB Extra Innings Package and I just flip back and forth between the Red Sox and Yankee games...and then I discovered Picture in Picture on my tv. The Yanks always get the small picture lol. I will say this...I like the Yankees broadcasts better. I like Michael Kay and the job he does over Remy and Orsillo...but back to the topic at hand...I want this game now...there has to be a way to get this game before Tuesday lol

Re: Play it at a kiosk? Post impressions here!!

Anyone care to comment on user errors. Are we seeing any booted errors on the infield?

**DarthRambo** · 02-25-2010, 04:31 PM

Re: Play it at a kiosk? Post impressions here!!

Only remember seeing 1, maybe two infield errors for human. I made 1 throwing error as well, but was might fault cuz i held the button down too long. May need to bump the errors up for human sliders tho. I do see a wild pitch here and there(I use classic pitching btw). Cpu errors are very rare too, other than an occasional wil pitch. May need to bump cpu error up 1 on sliders as well.

The ps3 at my best buy was freezing a lot. Hopefully its just the system and not the game.

**DarthRambo** · 02-25-2010, 04:44 PM

I havent got offered a chair!

Re: Play it at a kiosk? Post impressions here!!

I won't be able to play the game at a Best Buy before release, so I have one request for those of you that will this weekend. Could somebody go into the Sounds of the Show setup and see if you can find out how many sound lots are available? We already know what most of the situations are, but we still don't know how many files were are allowed this year. I'd like to start copying files to my PS3 before I get the game Tuesday, and knowing the file limit will help with this process. Thanks!

Re: Play it at a kiosk? Post impressions here!!

How long did it take you guys to play a nine inning game in real time and also how long did it take in "fake time"?

(fake time: game time is 7:05 on the stadium clock and it ended at 10:00?...or in the case of a Red Sox/Yankees game..maybe 11:45 lol)

YES!!! You are ABSOLUTELY correct-a-MUNDO!!!

You can't take a homerun away at Wrigley -it's impossible, because there is the "overhanging wire BASKET" they installed in 1985.

...players can jump to rob a "hit" that is going to bounce of the TOP of the ivy, but a player CANNOT jump high enough to ROB a Homerun, because the basket hangs OVER the IVY.

Here is a pic of someone that "fell" into the basket - probably after a few cold "Old Styles".

There is a bit of a gutter type fence that I think is meant to avoid fans dropping crap on the field.. he did try. It looked great.. He was not near the top of that fence, but may have thought it would have been off the wall..

I also saw 2 booted grounders on the infield.. 1 by me (Furcal) and Ramirez had one kick off his foot..
