    Re: Major League Baseball 2K9 Video: Giants @ D-Backs "Zone Hitting"

    The Top 3 Plays is a great addition from NBA2K. The cursor/zone or whatever VC is calling it looks promising. It would be great to see a whole inning of it.

      NHL 2K9 has top plays, 3 stars, and signature highlights as well...very cool addition for MLB 2K9!

              Well, you're in the minority then. The game looks impressive though not perfect, but it's not the final game yet either so it should be even better when it's released.

                It may not be impressive as in "wow, this is the most amazing game I've ever seen."

                Given the issues it had to overcome in one year's time however, some of what they've seemed to accomplish is fairly impressive.

                Obviously the true test will be playing it for yourself, but at the very least, on the surface it represents the game MUCH better than in years past.

                  Agreed. I think it's going to be a fun game to play. Looks like it should be tweakable gameplay wise also. When it's out, same with The Show, time has to be spent tweaking the sliders, etc. to fit your individual needs as every gamer plays differently. Patience is needed in the first week of release.

                    I agree
                    NBA2K is the standard of sports games period.

                      Zone Hitting Just looks utterly ridiculous.

                      You end up watching your bat instead of the ball.
                      Does anyone really play with that on?

                      I know u can turn it off, in both games ( 2k9, The Show)
                      But really, Zone Batting should go the waay of the Dodo.

                        I am really impressed with this game.

                        They got rid of that claustrophobic fielding camera with the baserunners in the corners of the screen, to a much more, natural, fielding camera.

                        Perhaps even better camera angles than.. <gasp> the Show???

                        I might be buying both games!

                          Keep zone/cursor/timing etc... The more options the better.

                            Yes, but unlike other useless arguments, these both happen to be in the same department of development. So, this isn't a "mascots versus AI management" debate, this is a matter of time, memory, and other resources being consumed on both instead of just one.

                            I'm not saying that I'm for one hitting system, but I'm just saying that this is a time where they literally can only focus on one at a time instead of multitasking implementing features into a game.

                              Excellent job Steve!

                              Really appreciate all the videos/screens/impressions thus far!

                              I'm liking what I'm seeing.. seems like VC did a TON of work on this year's game and I'm slowly becoming very excited to see it first hand.
