Not sure how I feel about analog hitting. 8/10 attempts end up being bunts?

The pitching seems easy to get into.

Just saw the grounds crew after the third inning, pretty cool.

You pre-load your swings X=regular, O=contact, [] for power, if you don't pre-load it defaults to regular swing.

Thanks for the responce but all I can do is the analog controls.

Are you stepping (pulling back on r-stick) before swinging (pushing up on r-stick)?

on 1080p the game lowers the resolution past 720p just like last year

It has not been the same since 09

720p still looks the best

Lost my first game 3-0. I had five errors!! And what's worse is that Tim Lincecum had my only hit of the game. :

I can't even hit the ball! When do I preload?

Throwing some balls in the dirt (on purpose) and I'm loving how the catcher reacts. Seems to be more organic, he'll get his body in front of the ball and let it bounce off. Very nice.

Again, Impressions only please.

Ask questions in the Q&A thread. We do this for a reason. Guys who have the demo will see the questions when they get a chance.

Second game and pitching is becoming much better. I am doing my thing

I think pitching analog from the catches view is best because you get to see the arc on pitches and I do not have to see how horrible the crowd looks behind home plate. LOL

Loving the analog. feels great

I just pitched 4 perfect innings with Lincecum! I have never had so much fun pitching in a baseball game. I hated the pitching meter that has been in The Show the last 4 or 5 years, so I always stuck with 'classic' pitching. But the analog pitching is so much fun!! I was painting like Picasso.

I didn't get the hang of hitting until the 3rd inning. Of my 3 hits, two were bloopers and the only reason I scored was because of a big error on what should have been an inning-ending double play with the bases loaded. Kinsler threw the ball into LF and two runs scored.
