Is MLB 2K10 a good baseball game where you don't manage so much as pitch and hit?

I've been meaning to ask about something like that to get for my PSP.


Edit: Then again, all three reviews I've seen for this on the PSP say it's crappy on the hand held. :|

On the console/PC versions you can just manage, just play, just GM, or do it all.  I'm really warming up to it

Can you ask your friend from SA if he has had any luck with them?  I emailed them and they told me that the charges were declined and they should not show up on my statement at the end of the month.  They completely dodged my questions about the failure of their system and giving me the game at that price.

I think someone fucked up on their end and now they're trying to cover their tracks.  Because the game is on 25% off today.

So I got the game... maybe it's just me, but the controls suck or I suck or both.  SO far... I BLOW at this game.  WTF.

If you haven't played one of the games in the series, the controls will be pretty hard at first.  I like them in general, though, except for stealing.

OK... I'm getting used to it.  The only bitch I have is I have no idea how to pitch one of the pitches where you basically need a controller with a stick to do it.  I don't have a controller so I'm using the keyboard.  Any clue how to throw those??

Buy a controller with a stick?

I can't imagine trying to use a keyboard to play this game

Dammit... figured you might say that.  It's actually not bad... there's few games I actually play that require anything but the keyboard.

What controller do you have?

I play on the 360, so a 360 controller.  I have a controller for my desktop that's basically the same as a PS2 controller.  I got it for like $20 several years ago so I can't imagine they're too bad nowadays.

So I got a chance to play with it last night... gotta say I'm lovin it.  I doubt I'll use it for FPS games or anything, but it makes this game about a billion times easier.

Oh yeah if you're on a PC there's not a single reason to use a gamepad for an FPS

As opposed to a keyboard?  Almost definitely.  Playing sports games on console controllers is the way it was meant to be done
