Interesting thing in Dontrelle Willis Interview

[dmbfan1970]

I would post the link but for some reason i got taken off here? But in Video 1 of the Interview with Willis at around the 1:02 mark I couldn't believe what I saw. The ball was hit for a homerun and I was expecting the ball to disappear but it didn't! You can clearly see it take a bounce!!

Yes it looked like it bounced off the wall. Also those cameras of CC pitching were nice.

Re: Interesting thing in Dontrelle Willis Interview

Two quick thoughts after watching those clips:

1) Dontrelle is a cool dude. I know he's been struggling lately (and now that he's in the AL, I hope he continues to struggle -- especially against the Yanks), but that guy always seems to be having fun no matter what he's doing. I really like his emotion and when he answered that question about the World Series win, you could tell how much it really meant to him. Great stuff.

2) I was a bit underwhelmed by the graphics in the clips -- especially how choppy a lot of the animations looked. It definitely didn't look 60fps, but who knows which build they used.

well, as the thread starter said "the ball bounced after it went over the wall." well obviously it had to hit something. it barely bounced. in real life, most hr balls either bounce or are caught. the ball did not travel through the stands and bounce back up, it hit the stairs and bounced.

Re: Interesting thing in Dontrelle Willis Interview

I just finished up a game of 2k7 before reading this post, and that same type of bounce when a homer is hit is in 2k7 also. Hopefully they have improved it though.

No, the fact that they are showing sd vids is bad. the game looks last gen simple
