Terrible! Bottomline, we are paying customers that are not getting a quality product. I have supported Sony through a number a playstation systems over the years. The PS2 never gave us so much trouble. What is going on? By the way, Go Mets!

Apparently “shortly” means a long ass time.

Sidewinder, yeah, I turn the pitch speed all the way down to 0 and it’s faster then 07 the show at its lowest 0 setting for their sliders. This to me is WAY to fast pitch speed in 08. remember this is just me. 07 the show slider for pitch speed at lowest setting is just fine, but any faster is to fast for me. i can hit with 08 the show, but i just prefer the lower speed.

Pitch battles are awesome in 08, however way way way to many fouls. I even took sliders to their lowest setting for contact, power, foul percentage type slider, all that and the cpu still fouls a ton of balls. It is soooooo stupid and sooooo unrealistic. It’s like 5-10 fouls per AB for the cpu. It just seems like it, even though that’s overstating the problem. I do like it when the cpu fouls a bunch of balls in one AB, but not for every AB or even half of them as that happens far too often. It really ticks me off actually.

I also hate how the ball is totally white with no detail what so ever. In 07 it wasn’t as white as in 08 and to me had more detail because of that. I hate the way the ball looks in 08 when pitching. I don’t hate, but dislike very much.

These 3 things really bug me so much I am not playing 08 as much as I’d really like to. Remember this is just my opinion about the ball detail, pitch speed and fouls. Other then these 3 things I love the game and it’s AWESOME!

I want to like MLB2k8 also, but how they didn’t touch the commentary ticks me off so much I wanna kick their arses. Curse em out and just go off on em they’re so pathetic. Framerate hurt my eyes actually so I didn’t play the demo more then 5 minutes or so. And I HATE hitting and pitching if it is not classic 1 button type. This is just me how I like baseball games. The graphics sucked in MLB2k8 compared to 08 the show. I did like them ok though.

One thing very very cool in MLB2k8 was when Manny in left field jumped to catch a ball off the wall it was more realistic then any other game that I have seen jump catches in when a player jumps to catch a ball. The animation just looked way cool.

I totally dislike the GUI in MLB2k8 too. The text isn’t as good and clean looking as other games and it’s too small text size in my opinion. Not to small to read it, but in general I like the text a tiny bit bigger.

I’ll try MLB2k8 again in a lower then 1080i res on 360 and even lower the rest to 480p on the ps3 and see how it plays.
