Re: MLB 11 The Show Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

My impressions, after really only owning 09 as my last show game, is WOW

firstly it looks amazing, perfection, best graphics i have ever seen to be quite honest.

second the analog pitching is BRILLIANT, sooo much more enthralling and immersive than the metre, i found myself celebrating when i painted a corner. it really puts you in total control, all in your thumb, without making it too easy. the metre was so fast that there was always an element of luck on top of your own skill, but this is perfect and as a result you feel perfect when you do well.

i cant bat to save my life, but then i have never been a good batter even with the simple button swing, but i like the feel of stepping back and swinging.

overall i had no plans to buy this game, it is not a priority i can worry about, but the great feeling of the pitching has alone made me desperately try to justify a purchase. (im in the uk, so its a little more expensive and harder to get)
