        HAHAHA,

        That was the whole intention of my post, to expose the double standards that exist here. Funny eh? Not allowed to bash The Show, but 2k it is fine to make up stuff and bash mindlessly. I happen to like the show, my intent was to show how hypocritical people are here.

        As for the guy who had frame rate issues, I call you a lier, that was been fixed.

        The show has been better overall, but just trying to defend 2k has exposed so many here with a blind agenda for the show. Good times.

            You should be able to get it with a free silver live subscription, or is the demo for gold only?

                yeah lol its build 0.771546

                of course we dont know how early or what the build is, and until the final game is released its all speculation.

                  I think only gold members can download it today if I am not mistaken.

                    Correct, Gold has a 1 week lead on Silver for most demos, this one including.

                      Some times devs come on the boards and let people know what build a demo is so it's a legit question. For example, another game releasing next week is a mid-December build.

                        So anyways I'm getting fairly realistic results so far as far as stats are concerned. I still want a game that gives realistic pitch counts and walks out of the box, but I'm hoping on the higher difficulties and with sliders this can be remedied. Errors, assists, singles, doubles, triples, passed balls, pitches in the dirt seem to be happening pretty realistically though. Slugging hits like hrs and doubles are a little too frequent but im guessing thats because of the difficulty. Arms seems to be a bit juiced as well and im hoping its the same thing. The game seems to be pretty well balanced overall compared to previous 2k games I've noticed which makes me happy.

                          Seems much easier to read pitches when batting now, which is good. Pitch speed is too slow, which makes hitting too easy, but we'll be able to adjust that in the full game. Also hope I can keep the strike zone box up at all times when batting, but I could get used to it the way it is now (fades before each pitch) as it does give you a better view of the ball.

                            This game is pure rubbish compared to the show. Realism? I don't see nay of it. NBA 2k9 captures realism, this doesn't even borderline realism. The Liberty Bell doesn't even ring after a home run? the controls are subpar, the base running is very, very basic. This is not a game that I would expect on a next gen system. Looking forward to the show in 2 weeks!

                              You steal by holding down the left trigger and releasing it at the right time.If you release it too early, you'll get stuck in a pickle...And if you release too late, you'll most likely be thrown out by a mile.

                                One more time. It's ok to mention The Show when comparing the games. What's not ok, and considered trolling is making a post calling this game rubbish (with no reasons to back it up) and then say how you can't wait for the other game.

                                Many have posted mentioning The Show, comparing things one game does better than the other. That's fine, they are the same sport coming out the same time. But you have to think before you type on the bashing.

                                Thanks!
