    Pasta Padre video comparison of 2K and The Show: 2K hacks too much

    I'm really enjoying creating the HD videos so I decided to do something a little different and make one that put MLB 09 The Show and MLB 2K9 right up against each other. This one isn't in full HD since I had to convert it but it still looks pretty good. I took at bats


    Actually an unintended result of the video is displaying one of the problems with 2K9, that being the CPU swinging at most every strike. Even though I was just messing around you can see the counts getting deeper with the examples from The Show vs the ones from 2K9. It is a pretty stark difference when going back and forth between the games.

    yeah, unfortunately, the pitcher batter duel is the heart of a baseball game. Maybe some slider tweaking will help though.

      I don't give a damn what he says. The Show will have issues as well, count on it.

        One of the issues isn't hitters hacking wildly.

        Oh, by the way, Bryan has the full versions, not demos.

          When he posted this video, he said he was hoping the full version was waiting for him at home, so this video is from the demo.

          But yes we all know this is a problem. His pitch location didn't help much though.

          We hopefully will be able to improve this with slider/roster adjustments.

            yeah, those were both videos of the demo.

              well, that's because The Show > 2k9 in basically every way

              simple as that

                  Except for the fact that no one owns a PS3. We can't play the game the most amazing baseball game ever created.

                    Yeah, because as we all know, Pasta Padre doesn't know how to play baseball video games.

                      Actually, I'm sitting on some news about the real greatest baseball game ever made, and will be announcing it later. :wink:

                        Did I say that he didn't? No.

                        My point was that he didn't even try to paint the corners.

                        But regardless, we all know it's a problem, and hopefully one that gets resolved soon.

                          I've only watched a few videos of the show but what is immediately noticeable is the smoothness of the animations. I hope 2k can get to that level.

                            I have. The AI lays off pitches out of the zone, and makes contact with those in.

                            Question: how often to hitters swing at first pitch fastballs?

                              The animation has been smooth in the demo. It's the transition from animation to animation that's been rough.

                              ie. going from running to throwing, etc.
