I didn't read through the entire thread, but I checked the PSN store around 11AM and there was no demo. Is the PS3 expected to get the demo?

I agree, it's become a joke. I will play tonight to see for myself. But the people with their agendas is comical.

There's only a few people's impressions I trust when I view a thread like this, the rest is just garbage sprinkled with preconceived notions. You could feel it coming in the past few months, but it's Madden/2K all over again.

They should just lock this thread, I don't think people can handle it.

I'm sorry if your a little bit slow, or your acting stupid on purpose. But i said bounce off the wall (not bounce off the top, like u say), stop trying to agitate people JT u have a long history of doing this.

I do? I was under the impression you meant a "ground rule double".. because I thought you meant it bounced on top of the wall.

My apologies

downloaded the demo and I am am pissed.. the frame rate drops sucks the controls are horrible and the animation looks so PS2 how is this a nex gen game but plays like last gen? I deleted the demo and sticking to MLB the show this game is years behind.. wont get rated higher than 7.7 garunteed!

# 308 ExtremeGamer @ 02/24/09 02:54 PM

This ends now.

Impressions ONLY. Anything else is an infraction. Got it? Good.

You should be able to get it with a free silver live subscription, or is the demo for gold only?

of course we dont know how early or what the build is, and until the final game is released its all speculation.

Correct, Gold has a 1 week lead on Silver for most demos, this one including.

Some times devs come on the boards and let people know what build a demo is so it's a legit question. For example, another game releasing next week is a mid-December build.

# 318 jeffy777 @ 02/24/09 03:10 PM

Seems much easier to read pitches when batting now, which is good. Pitch speed is too slow, which makes hitting too easy, but we'll be able to adjust that in the full game. Also hope I can keep the strike zone box up at all times when batting, but I could get used to it the way it is now (fades before each pitch) as it does give you a better view of the ball.

# 319 bigball12 @ 02/24/09 03:21 PM

This game is pure rubbish compared to the show. Realism? I don't see nay of it. NBA 2k9 captures realism, this doesn't even borderline realism. The Liberty Bell doesn't even ring after a home run? the controls are subpar, the base running is very, very basic. This is not a game that I would expect on a next gen system. Looking forward to the show in 2 weeks!

Thanks!
