There's also the three-man commentary team of John Kruk, Steve Phillips, and Gary Thorne, as well as a new hurry-up baseball option that cuts down on the amount of time to complete a game by removing some of its superfluous elements (like cutscenes).


I would have bet my britches that Steve Phillips would not be in the game this year.  LOL

It was too late to remove him. Notice how VC is not advertising the commentary for 2K10.

I'll bet they are just re-using last years' assets and dropping in some Kruk stuff where possible.

My favorite part

Robinson: Has the frame rate been addressed at all?

Bishop: That's another area that's key for us. It's already at a pretty solid state and we're not quite done yet. We still have some more time for polishing and tuning, but getting the frame rate to 60 frames per second is key. We don't want you running into all of these bugs. For us, this game is all about making the experience more fluid and polished so that you feel like this game is actually a finished experience.


--------------------

Smart answer, take notes Ben Brinkman.  From saying the typical "will be 60 FPS" to "getting the frame rate to 60 frames per second is key."  At least someone at VC has learned something over the past few years.

Press Release Source: 2K Sports On Thursday January 28, 2010, 11:00 am

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--2K Sports announced today that they will give away an unprecedented cash prize in the amount of $1,000,000 to the first person who throws a verified perfect game in Major League Baseball® 2K10, the next iteration of the popular Major League Baseball® 2K series, prior to May 2, 2010. The special contest, available for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft through the Xbox LIVE® online entertainment network and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system through the PlayStation®Network*, illustrates 2K Sports’ dedication to delivering vastly improved gameplay and pitching mechanics this season in Major League Baseball 2K10.

“You don’t see too many perfect games thrown in MLB 2K, but we’ve seen it happen,” said Jason Argent, vice president of marketing at 2K Sports. “Our goal is to celebrate and highlight Major League Baseball 2K10’s superior pitching and hitting mechanics this season, while also giving one of our loyal fans the thrilling opportunity to be rewarded with a lot of money.”

“Every baseball fan knows pitching a perfect game is one of the most difficult and rarest accomplishments in all of sports, and that’s what makes this million dollar contest so compelling,” said Evan Longoria, All-Star third baseman for the Tampa Bay Rays and cover athlete for Major League Baseball 2K10. “This is the chance of a lifetime, and I’m excited to see fans really try to go for it in Major League Baseball 2K10. I just hope they don’t try against the Rays, because my teammates and I aren’t going to make it easy on them.”

Fans will be able to participate in the $1,000,000 Major League Baseball 2K10 contest beginning on March 2, 2010 at 12:01 AM PST, and ending on May 1, 2010 at 11:59 PM PDT. To compete, gamers must play in MLB Today mode, select from any of the available matchups, and then choose the option to participate in the ‘Major League Baseball 2K10 contest’ that will automatically default to the proper gameplay settings according to the official gameplay rules. Entries must be recorded via camera or digital video recorder in compliance with guidelines provided by 2K in the Official Rules, and all eligible entrants must submit a copy of their recording in its entirety for verification. Submissions will only be accepted on DVD. To ensure accuracy in the verification and submission process, 2K Sports has partnered with Twin Galaxies International, the worldwide authority on video game world records, and provider of scores to Guinness World Records that are published in the Guinness World Records: Gamer’s Edition. For more information about the $1,000,000.00 Major League Baseball 2K10 contest, please visit: www.2ksports.com/perfectgame.

I would love to see those settings, wonder if they tweak and show the sliders.
