That's the spirit!

Thanks for answering the questions Teej. Should be interesting to hear your thoughts after some solid time with the game.

Can you edit draft prospect like in nba2k9?? If so can you edit more than just eye color???

TJ I don't think you have to go into franchise mode to edit minor leaguers you should be able to do that in the roster menu just like in years past.

Are their historical teams avaialble to play with? '27 Yankees, '34 Cardinals...

Or do they have old timer teams with players from several teams?

Are trading cards needed to unlock the legends?

Oh, and what color shoelaces do the Chicago White Sox AAA minor league team wear on the road?

The only historical-like teams I see are AL and NL Classics. I'm guessing they're sort of an All-Star team made up of retired legends.

I'm not sure on the trading card thing...haven't dug that far into the game yet.

I'm not answering the shoeleaces question on pure principal. Even though I'm a Charlotte Knights fan and former season ticket holder.

first of all thank you Chase and TJ for doing this.

1. I just want to know how the signature styles are?

2. and are the scoreboards blank?

Looks like the scoreboards are used to show headshots and stats of the player at bat.

Could you give button pitching a try and see if it has pinpoint control or if you throw some balls while trying to throw strikes.

I was throwing some balls using the button pitching (called classic in the game).

That is weak. I was hoping they would have the score of the game going on. Oh well. Glad you are enjoying the game bro.

So overall would you say the game is improved since the demo?

**kromo50** · 02-25-2009, 03:36 PM

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

it is for the pitching with the right stick but has 3 step not 2

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

Here's another easy one. Start a playoff game and see if they have the extra umpires situated down the lines in the outfield. They got it right last year, I would hate to see them miss this obvious part of the game.

Surprising that they don't have playoff bunting, etc. since VC puts that kind of stuff in NBA 2k9 (even mention Christmas Day games).

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

Is all-star mode in 2k9 easier than the all-star mode in 2k8? I hope it's the same. I mean, since there are new developers; will the modes change in difficulty from last year? for example, is all-star mode from 2k8 really superstar mode in 2k9?

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

TJ, how would you compare the graphics/visuals of the retail verson to that of the demo

animations?
jaggies?
player faces?
field texture?
replay cutscenes? (not in demo)

**sirwoodz** · 02-25-2009, 03:39 PM

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

Could you please in just a sentence or two, list some noticeable differences between the demo and the final build?

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

Hey TJ, here is my question...Do you have an extra 360 I can have since mine RROD'd last night?
