New Controls for Precision Batting and Pitching
Using the analog sticks, Take-Two's Precision Pitching and Swing Stick give you the ability to paint the corners with your pitches and pull an inside fastball over the wall for a home run. The game carefully tracks aim and timing, so the ball always responds as you would expect it to in real life.

Player Specific Animations for More Realistic Games
2K Sports continues to build in more player-specific details, so now you can recognize your favorite players simply by watching the way they move around the batters box, how they swing the bat, or how they celebrate their home runs. It's not just hitters who get this treatment as pitchers also have their unique deliveries and windups. The result is a game that feels more life-like than before.

Customer Reviews
MLB 2K9 Delivers a Home Run!
Don't pay any attention to the negative reviews of this one. It's a big improvement over the last editions. Simply download the updates and you're in business. I like MLB The Show, but find the graphics here, including the stadiums, just a tad more realistic. The announcing is great and the game can be fine tuned to deliver as much of a challenge as you want. I have both The Show and this one and really enjoy them both!
This ones a bargain at $39.99 and even less on ebay. Get it!
Much Better
I've been playing just under a week and the improvements are easily noticeable. First off the frame rate is vastly improved. Last year I played 2K8 for all of 20 mins and could take no more. The graphics are also better than last year but I thought the graphics in 2K7 were just as impressive.
I'm still getting used to the gameplay mechanics but I welcome the challenge. I will say that I despise the total control pitching and pine for the crosshairs of 2K7 but alas I know those are history. I still use the classic pitching option which has it's own frustrations such as the constant barrage of bean balls I seem to throw despite seemingly getting the meter just right. It also makes painting the corners next to impossible. Sometimes it seems like it's throw down the middle or beanballs are you're only options, it might just be my inexperience though I'm sure more practice will make perfect. Right now I'm constantly being clobbered by the computer. I hit at-'em balls and pop ups while the CPU hits gappers and homers all day.
I haven't played online yet so I can't comment on that. I'm a casual player so I also don't care for manager modes. I just like to pick teams and play ball. Overall I'm content with this years effort from 2K Sports. There's still work to be done but there on the right track.
This Game is Different
I've played baseball games before, mostly from A&E Sports, but this game is different in the sense that is more realistic and difficult to win games. If you're not tuned enough to play this game, you will lose every game. So you have to be realy quick with the keys. It's a good game.
Price: $16.12
