Re: Three Point Thursdays: MLB 2k8

While complicated in theory, these mechanics take only a few pitches to learn and give you more input and feedback than ever before. The controls bring a greater sense of authenticity to a game that already has solid presentation. The new pitching stays fresh with a different challenge every game as the exact gesture depends on the pitch type and the handedness of the pitcher, while the speed of the moving circle varies based on the pitcher’s windup, stamina, and composure.
That is awesome, similar to sig-style jumpshot timing in 2K's bball games with additional variables.

EDIT: I also didn't know the R-Stick would control throwing in the field as well, that's very cool. Beats using pressing the four face buttons and will hopefully lead to more variety.
