2K Games announces that
Major
League Baseball 2K9 is now available for Windows, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3,
PlayStation 2, and Wii. Here's the deal:
This season, Major League
Baseball 2K9 offers fans improved two-step Precision Pitching™ controls, deeper
Swing Stick™ batting and quick fielding responses for even greater control of
the game. The improved batting controls provide the ability to influence hits
with timing and aim, improved hit distribution and variety to deliver more hit
types including spray shots, pulls, line drives and long bombs. With more than
six years of scouting reports infused into the action on the field, Inside Edge
produces remarkably accurate player tendencies to ensure players react to
in-game situations as they would in real life. Major League Baseball 2K9 also
features new commentary, as Gary Thorne provides the play-by-play calls
alongside color analyst Steve Phillips giving a new perspective and more depth
for a true-to-life, insightful broadcast. In addition, Living Rosters has been
added this season to provide fresh and active roster updates that guarantee
every game is current and automatically updated behind the scenes, so players
are never late on a trade and always have the hottest players in their starting
lineup.
