Use the same batting camera. Also using classic pitching and timed hitting. I'm starting to feel guilty for being so lazy but I then remind myself I'm 52 and the guilt goes away rather quickly. LOL

Have you turned on auto fielding yet? I have. It's bliss.

Thanks to the Online Code snaffu, I'm stuck with the default roster for now.

I was more referring to a complete roster, ala Knight's OSFM roster. It'll be several weeks before a roster that complete and extensive is released. For now, yeah, it's the Mar. 6 update and then a few sparse rosters.

Just thought I would add some Pics since there are not too many from the Vita. There is one to show size of the ball because people have wondered how big it looks. Enjoy! This game is amazing and better as you play it more.

Just won my first game on the Vita. 3-2 Royals over the Tribe, 0-5 previously. Both teams got just 6 hits and it was a franchise Spring Training game so both teams used a variety of pitchers.

Finally got down to single digits for the number of times I struck out...9 this game. Really having trouble reading the pitch, especially when the shadows come over home plate but it is getting a bit easier. I can't read a slider for the life of me!

Getting the pulse pitching down fairly good am enjoying using it.

I personally have 0 problem with fielding in this game. I don't like how when I have a batter coming up to the plate half of the crowd looks 8 bit pixelated and half look fine.

Is there a tutorial on how to do the cross platform cloud saving with the PS3? Should I start my season or franchise on the PS3 first or does it matter?

It doesn't matter, but you will use both online codes - 1 for PS3 and 1 for Vita. It's pretty seamless.

It does not. Fishepa. I started one yesterday in class for fun, and loaded it up on my PS3 this morning no problems.
