As you said it was out of 2K's control. Once they submit the patches to MS and Sony, there is nothing else they could do. I guess they could have purposely delayed releasing it to Sony to guarantee it came out on the 360 first, but that would be pointless.

Playing a night game right now, which also looks the same to me as before.
Cool beans....
Does the game play seem tighter post-patch?

We'll after last years debacle where PS3 owners got shafted on a PATCH, I'm glad they got it 1st this time around

- Reduction in missed flyballs and outfield "slowdown"? Great!
- Slider values changed for better baseball? Faboo!
- AI takes more pitches? Yay!
- More variety in throwing arm strength? Awesome!
- Harder pitching? Nice!
- Pitcher walks off the mound after strike 3? Perfect!
- No more jogging baserunners? Sweet!
- No first baseman glitch? That's great!
- No more easy pickoffs? About time!
What am I not happy about?
- No saving camera angles? Bummer.
- No tweaking players' batting and pitching stances? Drats.
- No earning cards on personalized sliders? Stinks.
Overall, these are a lot of great fixes. We'll have to start from scratch with sliders, but that's okay. These fixes also serve as a great head-start on MLB 2K10.

Thank the lord!!! I was so sick of seeing the CPU wait for the runner to get close to the bag to throw the ball back. Maybe now I'll actually get out when I make a dumb baserunning mistake.

Gah! I was so excited when I saw this thread.....until I realized its for PS3 owners (:-))
But its good to read about the fixes and impressions the patch has created. This patch could make this game into something truely special.

I'd like to hear impressions as well. Was waiting for this thing but got impatient and got a ps3. I still would like to see how this is as I might pick the game back up if its improved the major things.
My main issues were the AI aggressiveness which appeats to be fixed. It was also really easy to make contact and put the ball in play when batting. Just pitch counts in general on both sides were hard to come by. I hope 2k addressed this from both sides, not just hte cpu.

I played a game with the patch and it plays very well. The CPU definately throws more balls now. I walked 3 times in the game (one of them on 4 pitches). They were quite a few hits by both teams but it was on default All-Star setting. I enjoyed the game and think the patch will be making many people happy.
I did have one play where I thought the first baseman coming off the bag reared its ugly head again. It ended up being Hanley Ramirez throwing to first from the hole at SS and throwing the ball up the firstbase line causing the first baseman to have to come off the bag to catch the ball.
All in all I am happy with the patch. Now if they can come out with an opening day roster download I will be a happy camper.
