Re: MLB 2K5 WS Edition Impressions Thread

Any word on whether or not the behind the pitcher camera was fixed? What about the pinpooint control by the pitchers?

Thanks guys.

Re: MLB 2K5 WS Edition Impressions Thread

not too impressed w/ the "updated rosters" they claim... as said before, Bellhorn still a Sox, the rookie C on the Braves still not in the game, & they still show Robbie Hammock as a minor league Brave catcher.. other thing i am not liking is the fact that you cant use saved rosters from the other game........

Was the camera broken? And simply edit your pitchers' control ratings. I dropped mine by 50% -- some by 75% -- and it works great.

Re: MLB 2K5 WS Edition Impressions Thread

Hmmm, this does not seem like it's worth the $25. Basically all we are getting is half-assed updated rosters (still out of date, announcers can't say their names correctly, no real pictures) where people on OS could do a better job and ten post season moments to relive. I'm gonna have to get really bored to purchase this game.

Re: MLB 2K5 WS Edition Impressions Thread

Thanks for all the impressions guys.

It sure does sound like there is not any reason or incentive to purchase this game if you already have 2K5. They are going to miss out on a bunch of people who wanted to buy this game because they gave us nothing new it seems like.

What was TT thinking? Sound like EA and their FIFA series. New package same game.

For real, this is strange for a 2K game to come out with virtually nothing new added to the game.

What rookies are in the game?

Could someone check to see if Craig Hanson is in? or Jonathan Papelbon?

With regards to the camera, I'm speaking of the fact that if someone was stealing there was no view of the play. I guess my problem was that anytime you missed a spot (especially with KZone) everything was over the middle of the plate. Never out of the strike zone.

Hmmmm. So Baa7 this is the USER controlled pitchers? One thing that really bugged me was the inability to throw a ball when throwing a pitch on the corner. Everything was too spot on.

If so, I'll have to do this.

Do you happen to have a backup roster for MLB2k5 that you used?

they are not... seems as though the rosters are essentially the same as the other 2k5 (with minor updates)......

Re: MLB 2K5 WS Edition Impressions Thread

The pitcher still has too much range in this game. David Wells was pitching for the Sox and he was sprinting around, fielding bunts like no tomorrow!

Maybe there's a picture of a twinkie and a beer on the ball??
