Chipper took a strike! Haha...Looked good once again. Would be cool if they could wear their own team jersey's like they do in real life, but no biggie.

I agree with you here. I am really impressed. Even the hit to LF field looked really nice. I just hope the CPU does not swing at everything as has been shown most of the videos. Alot of people are getting concerned over this. Anyways, I think VC has taken a step in the right direction.

That throw A-rod makes, I've never seen it before. If that situation happened in 2k8, the third baseman would've taken too much time throwing to second thus nullifying the triple play. This year's game has this nice quick throw

It looked like CPU vs. CPU

PS. Why, Why, WHY are they wearing those idiotic AL/NL jerseys? This isn't the Home Run Derby. Each player should be wearing their normal team uni.

If I recall correctly, it has something to do with not being able to program each individual jersey at an all star game. The game would chug horrendously trying to load the textures for each different team uniform. I believe that either came from one of the devs from SCEA or 2k, or both. Wish I could dig up the post. Either that or I am losing it

It was from the 2k dev chat last week. I think it's really minor.

Yes inquiring minds would like to know, and that pitching view is awesome

In a word: bull. textures are textures are textures. MLB just wants the All-Star Game to have those idiotic jerseys to sell them.

I would not could it as bull, with this engine. They had to strip out so much already to get it to where it runs now.

And a texture isnt a texture isnt a texture, when said texture is unique and cost more memory for each one.
