Official MLB '10 The Show Impressions Thread

Played my first game online against some guy. I used the Twins, he was Philly. Roy Halladay owned my ass. I struck out 15 times, lost 6-2.

Fucking Liriano in relief gave up a two run jack to Rollins.

How was the lag?

When the only thing you can complain about is the fonts, that's when you know it's a great fucking game.

Pretty much.
My only other complaint - and it's just a personal thing - is how much my timing sucks at the plate.

 

[Point Blank]

I'm pretty disappointed they didn't add the shit where you can see what other people are doing on the game (Like COD).

 

[Leftwich]

I got rocked in my first game. Not that its any harder I'm just out of practice and am having trouble with change ups and pitch selection.

 

[LC AAU]

Fuck this game, pisses me off

And after my first game it freezes. Fucking sweet.

Hova raped my Marlins, 13-3 tonight.

Had fun getting a HR single but it was Bad News Bears until the end of the game from there.

Lack of baserunning knowledge, plunking batters and hacking away at pitches like a Meth'd-Out Lumberjack will do that to you though

EDIT: Definitely need to read the manual instead of plunging headfirst into the game if you aren't playing for "funsies."

 

[ram29jackson]

in my RTTS it appears everytime my manager calls a hit and run, the pitcher throws a low strike and I just tag it

Knowledge on how the baserunning works is essential, it can make or break you

I almost started crying.. I was sitting there in a league just kinda listen to music and then June 16th 2009 N.Y Yankees vs. N.Y Mets audio plays... (http://www.iviewtube.com/videos/58590/yankees-beat-mets-on-luis-castillo-error) and I start to cry almost FML

I just got the game today - after a few games, I'd say it's not a huge leap over 09, to be honest.
Subtle graphic improvements, a few new modes.
It's a fine game, to get me wrong, but early impressions have me worried they're sitting on their laurels.

One thing really irks me - I don't have the stadium code and they're charging $10 for the six classic stadiums. Considering they're already on the disc, isn't $10 a bit of a cash grab?

set both cameras (off/def) to broadcast, mine was Broadcast and medium by default.

and then lincecum k's the side. fml

I'm happy I get to use him and not go against him. Dudes a beast.

Just got the "Chocker" trophy

In any mode, lose the game after inserting your closer with a two or more run lead in the 9th

UGH FUCKING k.Rod!!

I cant get the ball to K Rod...Feliciano and the rest of the MESS pen usually blow that for me. I think I've used Feliciano in 3 or for games and in each one have gave up a HR to a lefty!:bigeyes:

Yeah I believe in 09 K Rod blew at least 15+ games for me. I'm making Sean Green my closer hahah

Got the game yesterday after playing MLB 2k9 all last year. Moving to this was like dumpster diving for dinner my entire life and than being taken to a five star resturant. Fucking awesome.

Did have one weird moment. David Wright hit a foul ball on a 2-1 count but somehow the count stayed at 2-1. I think I ended up striking out anyway, my timing is so God awful on this game, I'm early on everything. Not a fan of the Default baserunning controls either. I made at least 25 mistakes on the basepaths before switching to classic
