Anyone want to get in some Bobblehead Battle multiplayer tonight?

I liked what I've played of the local multiplayer so far.

Good game last night!

You did well considering I had unlocked a lot of the more powerful cards (E-pic bat) and you were mostly just using the default deck.

I really like the multiplayer in Bobblehead Battle. Too bad the single player has no lasting value.

did anybody ever get to edit rosters with that add on pack?

absolutely ridiculous not being released for the PS3, more fire for me to never support 2k again

Just picked this up on Xbox Market.
I'm looking forward to playing it when I get home.

This game has the look and feel of some of the great baseball games I've played on old consoles.
And from the sounds of it, most members here agree it's got solid gameplay and realistic stats.
For $10, that sounds like a steal of a game.

Yeah this is my favorite baseball game of this generation for sure.

You can get some surprisingly realistic gameplay out of it with some tweaks to the hitting/pitching settings.

Downloaded the game yesterday and got a bunch of games in.
It's fun, but there's a few things that are annoying me (which have been well documented here)
- The CPU never chases balls. You're forced to pitch strikes or else the CPU simply refuses to swing.
- Diving and throwing on same button.
- CPU picks the wrong player to field ball. There were several balls where I could have easily gotten with someone else, but it ends up dropping in between because I'm controlling a player that's farther away.
- 90% of my hits go to 2B or 1B. I can't seem to pull any balls that are pitched on the outside.
I've done it once or twice, but most times, I'm forced to push the ball and it almost always goes right at either player.

It's still fun, and I'm sure a lot of it has to do with my inexperience. I just hope I can iron some of these things.

Yeah unfortunately, there's no way to get the CPU to swing at first pitches more often or chase pitches that are out of the zone.

Those are the two biggest gameplay flaws IMO.

Buying Bobblehead Battle unlocks the player editor in Bobblehead Pros.

It's also a separate minigame:

Anyone know if we'll be lucky enough for another roster update?

Re: MLB Bobblehead Pros Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (XBLA)

Thinking about checking this out since the idea of games under thirty minutes is appealing to me. How well does the roster editor work? Would it be feasible to update the rosters myself to get them up to date for this season? Thanks.

Roster editing allows you to edit everything, but to get it you have to buy bobble head pros and battle

Can you transfer players between teams, i.e. Pujols to Angels, Fielder to Tigers? What about creating players?
