Re: Tease 2 going live in minutes.

Absolutely loved the commentary. Never thought I'd say this, but Phillips doesn't sound too bad. I thinks its just that I've heard his voice so much on ESPN that it doesn't bother me that much.

Wow that video looked pretty damn good. I'm very curious how this years version pans out. Interesting stuff

What's with all the pepsi banners. Too many sponsor ads make it look unreal

If the Beckett video is an indication.....I'm on board. It's looking good so far. Seems like stuff should start flowing out now.

Re: Tease 2 going live in minutes.

No kidding. People like to jump to conclusions. Thorne could have meant the ball went straight, and way into left field. Or it went straight away as in didn't lallygag or take its time. Whatever the heck he said, it was better than listening to Joe Morgan talk about why baseball was so much better in his day.

Yeah, that's also just like he calls it in real life. I've heard the "straight away to left" call by a bunch of announcers. I don't think it's a game error, just wording by a guy trying to exude excitement into a moment.

click on the watch in higher resolution. It looks alot alot better.

Tried to, but with my horrible connection the video chugs along(even after the video loading all the way). I always have to watch the regualar quality videos because of this. But, I'll eventually get a look at the game first hand when I rent it...

LOL, I didn't notice that the first time. Yup, definitely very weird. They can't be bothered to market their product, but they go ape-**** with the Pepsi ads in-game.

Somebody has to help pay the bills.

I dont know whats the hate from him. He's no Joe Morgan. I cant stand listening to that guy. Phillips doesnt bother me.

Oh, I understand about paying the bills. But a dozen Pepsi banners around the stadium plus Pepsi ads on the foul poles? That's overkill.

Not bad..

Is this the first time a LOVERBOY song has been licensed in a videogame?

...other than that, good stuff all around. IMO, the graphics seem like they're somewhere in between 2K7 and 2K8. Additionally, I'll go out on a limb and say that the commentary in this trailer rivals The Show...but how will it sound in-game?

Well, it sure seems improved. Gameplay videos and a demo should either verify or nullify that thought down the road.

As a Tampa resident and Rays fan, I'm glad they finally updated the Trop! We changed video-boards 3 years ago, and that's just now in. Same for the LED lights on the 2nd deck in left. Retired numbers = check. Giant Upton jersey above left center = check. City of St. Petersburg welcomes you = check. I gotta tell you, every time I played a Rays home game on 2k8, I was bummed by the old Trop. Just think: If they've finally nailed my stadium, do you think they've fixed the rest, too?

And one more thing: LET'S GO RAYS!
Can't wait for the digital and real seasons to begin.

Re: Major League Baseball 2K9 Teaser Trailer #2

I'm loving it it but after one review of how hitting is much easier and homers are allot then a trail come out of load and behold a homer it looks like SFGiantsPBA will be busy working on sliders soon but even last year it was hard to tune down homers so all I'm saying is they better tighten up hitting or this game will be to arcade.
