wrigleyville33 Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 The pants look like something a barbie wears in a magazine. Again it looks cartoony to me. The jersey as well lacks depth. The aa is awful as well. Anyone selling their ps3? This is what I posted over at os. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP_Frost Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 The face looks good, but there's something about the shoulders that has been a problem ever since 2k came out with their baseball games. I'd like to think that EA would do a much better job, and I would buy a console just for that if they ever get the license back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEOLINK Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I guess we'll have to get used to this 2K if they decide to release on PC just like they did with NBA 2K9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrigleyville33 Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 At first, I was also impressed with the look of the crowd...the "real living world" crowd. But then I decided to look at a similar shot from 2k8. Alas, the crowd looks slightly better in 2k9, but I wouldn't go as far to say the crappy looking crowds from 2k8 are gone. Nor would I say the crowd spacing problem has been addressed. Also, shouldn't the crowd in 2k9 be wearing mostly orange and black?? On a positive note, the lighting in 2k9 looks better (smoother, not washed out), but I think Roy O. is in a day game and Lincecum is in a night game so it might be deceiving. 2k8 2k9 from pastapadre.com: Living Rosters – Active roster updates guarantee your game is current. Rosters are automatically updated behind the scenes, so you’re never late on a trade and always have the hottest players in your starting lineup. With The Show doing weekly updates this was a necessary addition. It will be interesting to see the rate and accuracy at which they keep up with the rosters. There is a lot more happening in the MLB during a given week than in the NBA. More transactions, more new players that can be added, and more results to consider. Franchise Mode – Take charge of your franchise and enjoy the all-new MLB.com presentation style, a new level of CPU customization, multi-player functionality, and real player ambitions. MLB.com presentation in franchise meshes with NBA.com presentation in NBA 2K9. One of the benefits of the studio move was that the 2K Sports titles produced out of there would be familiar from title to title in design and feature sets. New Broadcast Team – Gary Thorne provides the play by play calls alongside color analyst Steve Phillips giving a new perspective and more depth for a true-to-life, insightful broadcast. With improved sound effects including real time crowd noise you’ll feel like you’re actually sitting in the park. This is one of the biggest changes. After 2K8’s commentary that was unchanged from 2K7 (unless you count editing out the “Devil” before Rays and replacing with a pause) it was one of the biggest community requests. Obviously there are critical areas that 2K has to address that went unmentioned in the features. Such aspects of the game coming back to form are necessary after last year. The frame rate has to be smooth and consistent and online play performance must improve from what offered arguably the worst online play experience ever for a premiere sports title.

el_jefe061 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Living Rosters might not be that great of a thing, considering that they won't have real minor leaguers. The graphics certainly are an improvement though. Hopefully Gary Thorne and Steve Phillips are better, all though they're both pretty stupid.

el_jefe061 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I don't see what's wrong with those screen shots. They're not as good as The Show, nothing is, but they're not bad. Certainly a big improvement over last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardcoreLegend Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Well, other than the Big JC pitching for Boston...the problem I have with it, like all other 2K games it that everything looks disjointed. The mechanics of everything look terrible. They look like if Pinocchio played baseball. His one arm would flop one way, he leg would buckle at a weird moment and his other arm would come swinging through to throw the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSabathiaEra Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 And another thing, they need to update the pictures Abreu was still in a phillies hat. 2K8 had the same portraits as 2k7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOHN3057 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I have to agree with an earlier post. Do any of these guys actually watch a baseball game??? What kind of shirts are the umpires wearing??? MLB Umps dont wear shirts like that?? It annoys me because I umpire baseball and the shirts in the game look idiotic. Short sleeve shirt with light blue long sleeve underneath?? I dunno? They should just go with long sleeve black at least it would look a little better. I know some may say who cares its the umpires, but I feel it is part of the game and should be as real as it gets!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanzarelli Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 2K sure as hell makes it easy to make someone buy a PS3. Especially if the rumors are true that the PS3 will be taking a $100 price cut in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rookie_rick Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 How much are PS3s in America? I'm trying to work out whether it will be cheaper for me to get it here or when i come over in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
