[Sharkweather]

Did they not have Online Season Leagues before?

If so, glad that is in there.

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Hopefully the box scores exported to their site are easier to read this year, it was all there last year, just not so easy to navigate.

And I see Russell05 came back to VSN

Conversely, the user will be punished with slight decreases in contact for each batter that performs below his natural ability.

Post Game/In Game Pitcher and Batter Analysis – Available both in-game, post-game, and throughout Road to The Show, the pitch analysis is a breakdown of all the pitches thrown during the current game being played.

Pitch Grips – MLB 10 The Show details various pitch grips and arm angles that a pitcher has when throwing each pitch. 17 different pitch types including four fastball variations (four-seam, two-seam, cutter, split), six breaking pitches (10-4 curve, 12-6 curve, slider, sinker, slurve, screwball), four change-ups (straight, circle change, palmball, forkball), and three specialty pitches (knuckle, knuckle-curve, and gyro).

Pitch Command System (PCS) – A pitcher’s “pitch comfort” will be predetermined based on a best to worst pitch scenario. The more a player works on a pitch, the better it becomes, and the more a gamer neglects a pitch, the harder it becomes to work the zone.

Release Point Pitching – Gamers must utilize a timing mechanism to learn and realize each pitchers pace and release point, which varies from pitcher to pitcher.

Pitching Confidence Meter – The ultimate pitcher/batter interface returns. Additionally, Pitcher Confidence plays a role in a gamer’s ability to hit release points in the all-new pitch meter, while frequency of mistakes will impact the confidence level of a gamer’s hurler, making it more difficult to paint the corners of the strike zone.

Guess Pitch – Baseball fans can attempt to master the ability to knock one out or hit the grounder to advance the runner by checking pitch history and correctly guessing which pitch and location that the pitcher will throw next. If a correct pitch is selected, the power attribute is increased to give the batter a higher chance of hitting one out of the park.

I can't fucking wait! I will do the Home Run Derby for my teams slugger every year, I hope they fixed the problem when you draft a guy in the draft and he has a different last name as the commentators say. Again, I can't wait for this shit!

[albidnis]

Wow... Can't wait. I love this game off-line. It seems like it will be just as good on-line.

[BuccaneerFan]

Wow....I think I jizzed a little in my pants reading all this.

Cannot freaking wait for this game. And I LOVE the addition of classic stadiums! How cool will it be to play some online ladder games in throwback unis at the Polo Grounds?

[krulmichael]

No outfielder collisions still? Pfft, what a garbage ass game. Guess I'll wait for next years version.

Problems with your internet or did you do it on purpose? Outfield collisions would be very cool though.
