PSP MLB 2006 - My Impressions

Okay, the knuckleball is absolutely ridiculous in this game. I haven't been able to hit a single ball in play against Tim Wakefield. :(
It has so much break, I'm surprised you don't just get a bunch of walks from sitting on it.

Just a theory, but what if you guess fastball [R+button] and leave the analog stick neutral (so you're guessing dead red on location). If the box turns red, you know it's a fastball at least... and maybe you can eyeball location... his fastball is hella slow anyway. If the box doesn't turn red, it's probably a knuckler, and if he didn't aim dead center (if he did, the cursor will appear) there's a huge chance it'll be a ball.

One thing MLB has taught me -- take pitches. It loves to throw junk, especially on Vet and All-Star.
 
Even on the ones where I predicted his pitches correctly and swung at seemingly the right time, every single instance was a whiff. I did draw a walk by not swinging at anything but damn that's so boring.
 
F-ING A I STILL CANT GET A ONLINE GAME TO START! WTF WTF SONY
