The Blog for the Sports Gamer Three guys who love Sports Gaming rant and rave about various stuff.

Post your 2K9 questions here…

First off... There is a trailer for The Bigs 2 on the disk.  Classic players are on the game.  I saw Ozzie Smith, Reggie Jackson, and I think Dave Winfield when he was wearing the Poop-Brown Padres uni's.  After picking up this game again recently... I'm very happy to see this game being announced.

Ok.  I'm looking at the controls setup and for batting they have potions to turn on the Batter's Eye feature and Zone Hitting.  By default they are off.  (This is for the Total Control swing method.)

Classic Mode offers the same settings, but removes the swing stick features.

They have an option to press the Select Button (remember PS3 version) to change sides of the plate for switch hitters.

For Pitching, the options are to turn off Release Timing and to switch between Breakpoint Aim and Pinpoint Aim.  (This is for Total Control... for Classic the Release Timing option isn't there.)

Ok, here's the slider settings....  (This is for the Pro setting.)
