It isn't just walks. It's throwing a 4 seam fastball on the outside part of the plate and seeing it take off up and in to a hitter. And that's while hitting the yellow accuracy bar in the pitch meter perfectly. Missing by a few inches is understandable. I like realism but I dread using breaking pitches a lot of the time because I have no clue where the pitch is gonna end up. It wouldn't be a huge problem if I weren't still playing on Veteran difficulty. There should be a bit more leeway on easier difficulties. I will say that The Show is miles better than the 2k games. I got 2k8 used and cheap and I've still gone back to MVP and The Show 08. And I love that you can actually work a walk on offense in the Show.

That particular part of The Show frustrated the hell out of me. I understand the intention to make it realistic but it was frustrating when it would happen on every pitch and no amount of adjusting the sliders could stop it even a bit. I think it's a neat feature to add a challenge to pitching but there should be a sense of customization to it instead of being at its mercy all the time. I'm with Al, the MVP series is tops for me. Nailed everything just right. Made you actually wanna play a game instead of simming an entire season. I've only got 360, Wii and PS2. I'll probably stick with MVP '05 for now, though I'll probably rent The Show.

I guess "The Doctor" is supoosed to be Mindbender. Didn't know he was in the movie.

Same here. There're like three or four that are in constant contention. Likewise. Although at the moment, I guess I have a favorite as I'm listening to it quite a lot lately.

First PPV ordered: WrestleMania 14 First PPV I attended: Royal Rumble '98 PPV I didn't attend and really regret: No Way Out '04. SummerSlam '01 a close second, but I was out of the country when that happened.

Smash Bros. and MLB '08: The Show.

You need an ethernet-to-usb adapter. I got one off Nintendo's web site.

Warrior promos It's there at the end.

I didn't know the Crow was in this movie. But seriously, those pics of Ledger look great. I agree with some that the make up and hair could be tidied up and still not lose any of the insanity vital to the character. The pics where he's looking up with a cold stare are very effective. The one's of him smiling, not so much. Looks drunk in those. I'm still not fawning over these movies like the rest of the internet is. And the batsuit looks even worse than it did in Begins.

Damn. Tried MVP '05 and it isn't working. The 360 says it isn't supported. The earlier two versions are, though, which is weird.

I always wondered why they didn't just sub in Taker there.

Great news if true, but how the hell would it work? It would have to be used exclusively with the classic or GC controllers.

Nightman / Dayman For anyone who didn't see it the first time. The old video was taken down. I like Charlie's 'lyric sheet'.

Raining Blood was the one song on Hard that gave me problems excluding the Battle with Lou. The HO/PO section in the beginning is killer. Even with star power I just barely managed to get past it. I was about two missed notes from failing the song. Took me about 5 tries. The last battle is ridiculous. They don't give you any power ups until a good minute into the song.

Nah, they like throwing big money at crappy players. Arod wouldn't come here anyway. He probably wouldn't want to spend the next decade in the cellar, and if any other team throws the same or less amount of money at him, it's an easy decision. He signed with the Rangers after they finished in last place in 2000. Touche. Or however you spell it.
