this is the slowest demo I've ever downloaded. Im sitting at 19% and its been near a half hour. I've seen people complain about download times before but its never really taken me more than 30-45 minutes for any demo. This is ridiculous right now lol.

Thus far, I’ve played two demo games, which is actually like four to six innings worth since you start in the 6th or 7th inning of game 7 of the NL Championship series.

Truthfully, I’m extremely impressed thus far with the overall feel for the game and plan on purchasing the official title tomorrow.

Graphics wise, the game is extremely impressive in my opinion. From overall game play, to detailed cut scenes, animations and player models look extremely impressive.

For the most part, I’m impressed with the overall game play and “feel” of the game. Both pitching and batting take some getting used to, from my overall opinion. I was able to somewhat conquer the pitching curve thus far through a few innings of play, however I’m still lost for the most part on the “batting” side of the game. From “guessing” pitches, to moving legs, and swinging, I defiantly need some more practice. It seems as though the batting curve is a lot steeper than the pitching.
I feel for the most part, the majority of people will be extremely satisfied with this game.

I haven’t purchased a baseball game since 2K’s World Series on the Dreamcast, but from what I’ve heard and read concerning last years 2K baseball game on the 360, it appears as though most of the problems and concerns have been resolved.

What type of internet connection do you have?

I'm lucky enough to be in college and blessed with T1, so my download took less than 15 minutes. However, I've been reading on various websites (2ksports.com & gamespot) that a lot of people's downloads are taking quite a long time.
