Official MLB 2K10 Impressions (360/PS3)

[Steel5]

I wasn't planning on getting this tomorrow but I might do it now.

sounds about right for a 2k game with a little online lag, great feature set with some things being busted out of the box...but overall, it sounds like it will be tons better than the fiasco that was 2k9.

Well, in my 5th or so game of My Player as a RP, I noticed that my 2nd baseman throws left handed.......... anyway, besides a few minor things with OFs looking dumb catching fly balls, it's a fun mode.

What do you mean by looking dumb, just bad animation?

Yea. Things like... they'll jog toward the circle, then quickly cut to another speedier animation, then settle into the catch the ball animation. Just unnatural motions really. I wouldn't notice it probably if I was the one controlling the guys but since I'm a RP in the mode, I just sit back and watch.


EDIT: But on a smaller note, my 2nd baseman is no longer left handed. Must have been a lineup change by the CPU Manager that resulted in it.

Ah, not a big deal I guess. I plan on becoming a SP, can you do that or do you have to be a RP to start?

You can become a SP to start off. In your first clutch moment, you may come in in the later innings, but I'm not 100% on that.

- I picked RP because I wanted to play through games faster and wanted the extra benefit of possibly becoming a closer later down the road. Plus, I'm a huge Royals fan and they need bullpen help so I figured I'd do my part and pitch in.
