We'll after checking out the other screens, If the sliders work correctly, the gameplay is good, running @ 60fps & we get progressive lighting, we just may have a sleeper on our hands this year.. The customization options in all areas is

These things will let me be forgiving if the graphics are not that great..

needs videos NOW.......

A tip for people having problems viewing bigger screens:

Right click, copy the "image location" and paste it. Erase the part that says "thumbnail" and click enter. The full image should pop up.

And stateprop...Which image do you see the batting practice option?

At the very least, the graphics look better than last year, which is definitely a good thing.

My only complaint from the images is why did they take out those indicators above the fielders head when throwing. Those were sweet, now were back to the standard meter

How are people saying these screens and player models look great?

I think it looks too cartoony, some of the meters (confidence) look too arcady, and the player models have that same 2K look to them for the past few years with still a downgrade over 2K7.

How fat are Damon and Beckett's lower half? The game looks nothing like the early (touched up) shots they showed. Typical 2K marketing deception.

I am very unimpressed.

Just have to wait for vids I guess. The screens are so up and down BS it is annoying.

I think he might be using classic controls. And now that I look at it, the angle doesn't really bother me, but the grass texture and the little diamond on the bottom really bother me. I think they should have the little silhouettes of the players running around the bases at least.

A lot of great things to see here. VC's presence is very obvious. I appreciate the many different batting camera angles, and the pitching ones, while very customizable, may not get us one that we can replicate a TV look to which is unfortunate.

I really like there's an influence slider for hits in the regular batting mode. I'm turning that bad boy way down.

So far this is still just a rental and The Show is still a purchase, but this game gives me great hope for this series' future.

If there is a downer, by screenshots alone it feels like a PC game. I have a feeling that videos will show us something different, like the trailers that gave the players a feeling of "depth."

We'll see where this takes us.

If you would take your blinders OFF, you would know these screens are from the OS Beta Copy taken by Steve of the game & not from 2k directly.

There is no question that i will rent this game. I always thought Gary Thorne was a great announcer plus this game has alot of interesting things i would like to check out. The videos will be nice, but i want to get in a good doubleheader before i judge it.

I'm lost...how do meters actually look arcadey? They're meters for God's sake...

Re: Major League Baseball 2K9 Beta Screenshots (2-12-09)

Look very nice... I love how they do their skies, with the clouds, etc.

I just wish we could get some confirmation on whether or not the ps3 version will be up to par.

This is the very reason I stop at OS first everyday. Steve takes the shots we want. Thanks Steve!
