MLB 2K11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (PS3/360)

[Peter_OS]

The frame rate issue is getting to me. Just unacceptable to me in this generation of sports games, to have the game bog down at times.

What makes it even more frustrating is that this has been a known issue for MLB 2K over the years, and it hasn't been fixed.

I never saw this issue in 2K10 and Chase has said it wasn't in his preview copy. I think it's fair to say this is a demo only issue. Hopefully we won't see it on Tuesday.

Since VC has been involved, there have been no frame rate issues in the retail version of the series (2k9/10) In Chase's review he made no mention of a Frame Rate Issue. It was mentioned in much earlier previews, which make me believe this DEMO is a very early preview build. I expect this to be a non-issue once the game is released..

Sorry if I'm saying something that has already been posted, but I haven't read through the 50+ pages.

Overall I'm really happy with the demo. I really wonder if the people who say this is the same game as 2k10 really played 2k10. I wish the graphics were better (The Show definitely wins here) but they aren't THAT bad. I've seen people make comments about them being Xbox (or PS2) quality, which is pretty laughable.

For me, what matters is fun, and 2k11 just blows The Show out of the water in this category. Pitching is so much more intuitive in 2k11. Its not just pull straight back and push forward. Hitting doesn't feel like work, its FUN, which isn't that what a game is supposed to be?

If you check out the gametrailers videos it appears as though the final game will look much better.

You're right, it does look different on the Gametrailers site.

Does anyone know why the 360 version is so much darker then the PS3 version?
