Major League Baseball 2K9 Video: Rays @ Phillies In Game Injury

[Smitty730]

No sig style for Shane Victorino???

The Phillies are the world champions. It's inexcusable that 2k failed to pay respect to the Phillies by adding every starting player's sig style.

The Show has Werth and Victorino.

I'm never one to complain about anything --- but this bothers me.

Do they have the signature styles of all of the past years champions? At least the past few years? If not then this shouldn't be an issue and somehow I doubt that they do.

In MLB 2K8, the Red Sox starting nine (Ellsbury, Pedroia, Ortiz, Ramirez, Drew, Youkillis, Lowell, Varitek and Lugo) all had personalized batting stances. So last year, at least, it did have the champs.

Well color me wrong then. I guess I'm not a big enough fan to notice these things but I can see where it would bother those that are.

I think people come at it from different angles.

I want a baseball game to provide realistic results while being fun. That's about it. Everything else is gravy.

I think if it were football I would feel just as passionate about faces and stadiums etc., but for baseball it's the presentation, fans, announcers etc. and the game play that get my interests.

All of the animations looked very stiff and very, very repetitive. Perhaps it's just the build.... but does not look to good so far.
