Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
I've actually had it both ways.
Last night I played a game against the Padres,Maddux was pitching,and on the 3rd strike I heard Joe say "he dropped the ball" and "he's running to first"...or something to that effect. It actually took me by surprise,but I've also had them bounce as well on a 3rd strike when I swing...then Joe will comment on how it was "in the dirt" then followed by "he's running to first".
I've only been safe on one of those,but it was when the pitch bounced,and got by the catcher.People are for reviews if it backs their argument, and against them when they don't.“I believe the game is designed to reward the ones who hit the hardest – If you can’t take it, you shouldn’t play!” Jack Lambert“Quarterbacks should wear dresses.” Jack LambertComment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
Bought the game a few days ago since I was wanting a baseball game and its the only one for 360. ok a few things that are annoying me.
1) I only hit pop-flys or homeruns. I NEVER hit a ground ball. Maybe ill switch to the old hit stick for contact.
2) computer only throws strikes.
3) Losing 14-3 is NOT fun and very unrealistic
4) outfielders a SLLOOWWW
There are just a few. Its really annoying me. Wishing i had a PS3 for "The Show", heard its pretty bad A$$Comment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
Few things, is anyone else having issues with fielding? Ive played over 60 games now and Ive gotta say fielding is prob the worst pasrt of this game for me. Every game something stupid happens and most of the time it costs me runs. it seems sometimes ill be running for a grounder and the player wont encounter the ball its like there isnt a ball there. the most frustrating thing is when I have an easy flyball Im running to get it and the game does that little hiccup so i catch it in stride and it jacks up the play. the worst is when im going for a fly and the dude will act like a ball isnt coming to him and itll drop at my feet and roll to the wall.Of course, if Dawson gets hot, and
Sutcliffe comes through, and....
Pa, see what you did to me?

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
I've witnessed and been part of some amazing plays with dropped third strikes.
The other night, I played Red Sox (me) vs. Yankees. Ellsbury struck out on a pitch in the dirt, and took off for first. Posada's throw to first was high and sailed into right field. Ellsbury ended up on second.
Pedroia sent the next pitch into the gap in right center. Abreu cut it off and held Pedroia to a single, but Ellsbury's speed allowed him to score from second.
It was one of the most satisfying runs I've ever scored, because it was so random and screwy.Comment

Check out the slider threads,as there's some really good ones.People are for reviews if it backs their argument, and against them when they don't.“I believe the game is designed to reward the ones who hit the hardest – If you can’t take it, you shouldn’t play!” Jack Lambert“Quarterbacks should wear dresses.” Jack LambertComment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
Finally had the opportunity to fire up the freshly patched MLB 2K8 and love what I see. Although, since the patch, i've dropped 4 or my last six games! Luckily the Reds are in town so I can get back on a winning streak! LOLComment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
I'm assuming that you save your settings in order to save your sliders, correct? (on the main menu) If that's the case, all you have to do is load your settings after you boot up a fresh franchise and you're good to go. I'm on the PS3.Comment
