Funny thing is, even though it has been improved its nowhere near close to being correct LOL.

So what are you implying? That I don't know my own team?

Well if you think that stance is "spot on" then yes I guess I am. Rollins doesnt hold the bat out and up in the air like that, he holds the bat closer to his shoulder and his hands are closer to his ear. he also has a toe tap.

Looks great! Would have been nice if they chose a clip that actually showed the guy putting the ball in play....

Maybe the guy playing could not hit! LOL

I'm sure there were other at-bats they could have shown us. It seems they did the same thing last year.

Well, if you read what I wrote, you'll see I said "improved" and not "spot on."

Also, take into account that this is probably not the most up to date version as they change frequently. Also, all batting and presentation type content gets added at the end. I am not saying that everything will be perfect and correct in the end but just a heads up. Even when were were at CD last year all that material was not in yet.

Yeah I remember the things not being changed till the end last year as well. Although I am not optimistic from what I have seen so far that the mechanics and what not will be changed over.

Video was nice. I like that you could actually see the catcher get up out of his crouch and point down to the 3B ump for an appeal on a check swing. I don't think that has been in prior versions.

The only thing I didn't like was seeing the Philly crowd stand up and cheer after Rollins struck out. Of course, it is Philly, so perhaps Mr. Rollins did something that the fans didn't like and this is their way of getting back at him

I'm not exaggerating it took me awhile to realize that I wasn't watching real players...still not sure......

I thought the same thing as well but if you look close the people cheering are Red Sox fans. The Philly fans are waving in disgust. Anyway, it is still off to me as there are way too many Sox fans for a regular game. I actually replayed just to see if they set up the Red Sox as the home team, lol

Good catch, Nem. That's actually pretty cool, although like you said, probably too many Boston fans sitting that close to the field.

Looks pretty good, fairly fluid. The pitcher seems to go from ball in glove to behind his ear...still looks like he's shortarming it... needs work

Re: CES 11: Red Sox vs. Phillies Gameplay (Cam)

Very nice. Even though Jimmy is a midget in life...Compared the last years game, he seems to have a more filled out body now. Liking that a lot.

Re: CES 11: Red Sox vs. Phillies Gameplay (Cam)

analog swing looked a little herky jerky as well. swing mechanics still the same. player models did look though. Im sure there will be some improvement on the herky jerky. so far I havent seen anything that will make me drop 60 bucks though.

I've learned with this series, you always buy the game and you will not be disappointed. The analog swing will not be for everyone, in fact I doubt I even use it but I'm willing to bet there will be other features in the game I will enjoy.
