OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

O.S. just put up a shitload of screens.  All the create-a-player options will make it pretty easy to add guys who aren't officially in the game, like that SCAB Kevin Millar.

My favorite pictures of a tv screen of a video game that hasn't come out yet are the 42 of them of the menu for the presentation settings.  WIND SPEED: 790 GOOGILION MPH!

You are seriously the saddest person I know.

For those of you here for a reason other than to annoy everyone, it looks like there are a shitload of camera angles for the batting and pitching cameras.  I think the horrible batting camera was one of the reasons it was so difficult to discern balls and strikes in 2K8.  Hopefully, the new angles will help remedy that.

I completely agree though. Those pictures are wicked awful gay.

DPD.  Cub player ratings.  Dolan will be delighted to note that Gabor is the worst player on the team.  Looks like the rosters were last updated prior to the Hill deal.

Zambrano hits better than Fukudome.  This instantly has become my favorite game of all time.

It wouldn't be surprised if that's not true of a lot of video games this year.

I love the fact that Zambrano didn't take a walk all of last year.  Indeed, he has absolutely no intention of walking - I think he'd probably refuse to accept an intentional walk - and yet he still hits .337.  Legendary.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

Yipee Skippy! 
I took my hands of my wienis long enough to pretend like I was holding a controller and pressing buttons to make the game play.  It was awesome.  In hindsight, I should have just used my dong as a joystick.   I'm doing that now instead.  VROOM VROOM.

If you're using YOUR dong, the preferred nomenclature is THUMBstick.

DPD.  I just watched the videos.  This game looks incredible in motion.  Let's hope the gameplay backs it up.

I think I know what this means, but I'm not sure.

What was the wind speed in that video?  Looked like 4mph to me.

More screens are up, too.  The rest of the fake National League's fake bullpens must have really sucked ass.
