MLB '10: The Show Fact Sheet

[countryboy]

Quote:

User Controlled Pick-offs (PS3) – Want to surprise a base runner with a quick move or lull him to sleep? The new pickoff mechanism will now allow users to choose from a quick, casual, or deceptive pick-off type. In exhibition, season, and Road to The Show modes, you have the ability to decide which move you want to make as a pitcher. As a base runner in Road to The Show you now have to pick up on the pitcher’s move or get thrown out leaning!

I am sooooo looking forward to this.

There was no surprise feature. What it was is that they flew in a few guys from the community here secretly last year, sat them down, and asked them to rip apart the game and tell them what needs to be improved and what they would like to be added.

A mini focus group from OS. We don't know who the people were.

Remember when I went numb and fell out of my chair last year after seeing the broadcast camera on replay for the first time? This time I went frozen and a huge shiver just went down my spine, and my eyes blacked out for a split-second.

Excuse me a sec...

Ahh, you are correct. I didn't see his reply on this a week or so ago...missed that somehow.

And just when I thought I couldn't get more excited for this game, Russell goes and adds more.

Thanks Russell!

I am pumped. That part about ball physics and arm attributes, just made this game come even more alive and it is the Show so you know it will be done right. March will be here before you know it. Russ do they have a cut screen of the ball going in the water or does it bounce of it again like it did in 09?
