    Awesome. I was just kind of worried it'd been forgotten about. Any of you guys actually played it yet? Is it any good? My xbox was stolen in May and I have yet to replace it, but this and Bastion have been making me want to return. I really wish it would just come out on PS3, but you take what you can get, I suppose.

    i tried it, its not very good, looks good though but plays pretty bad, it cant pick the right fielder in most situations and the movement is screwy, pitching was rubbish but the batting was ok.

    @buft: Did you ever play the PP games that came out on the Wii? Does it control significantly different from that? Difficulty selecting players sounds like par for the course. As for batting/pitching, I'm sure that's dependent on what kind of systems you prefer. I absolutely loathe the systems in 2K and The Show, for example, but I'm a huge fan of Power Pros and Professional Yakyu Spirits.

    Just watched the Quick Look. Answered a lot of the questions I had. This is precisely what I want it to be: a Pawapuro game released in the states. They dressed it up in bobbleheads to keep Americans from knowing it's a Pawapuro game, but my interest is even greater. I pre-ordered the Japanese NPB Pawapuro game, so maybe it'll be too much, but once I replace my 360 this will definitely be downloaded.

    i see you watched the quicklook but when i played it it seemed a lot like all-star baseball for the n64 but not quite as polished

    It looks a little rushed and gimped from the much more solid presentations in old MLB Power Pros games. I guess they're trying to leverage Konami's great baseball system without using the anime style that didn't sell strongly back in 2008/2009.
