Wow, what a game. Kazmir was holding me to a no-hitter, while his team had 4 hits. I gunned a guy down trying to stretch 3 with the cut-off in the second. And then Howard, who struck out the previous at back, ended the game with a Walk-Off Home Run.

The Lighting, FANTASTIC. The crowd, AMAZING, especially how you can see the guys scooting by other fans sitting when trying to get out, nice touch. The game looks more polished, and seems to have better textures, etc than '08. The players just "pop" more.

The controls are GREAT, they feel much tighter, reminds me of MVP. They dont feel as "floaty" as '08, or rather, '08 now feels a bit floatier than this after playing this.

The frame-rate is suspect, as in, it feels to dip when the pitcher goes into his windup, but that can all be due to the early build this is, and easily cleaned up. And the replay cuts are smooth as glass, and dont have that slight hitch '08 had.

You can check swings, but I also think that all plays into player's plate discipline, etc in certain counts. More realistic this way.

And the meter, while it is much improved, I will still use classic (and did in the demo), since it does not take my eyes away from the action. Love the catcher dropping signs, and batters/players chewing gum. And the behind the pitcher camera angles seem better tweaked, as well as the pitcher when you are at bat is more imposing, than before.

Did I mention the progressive lighting was AMAZING? Best I seen in a sports game yet.
