    Has anyone tried this out yet? No interest in feedback from Xbox or PS gamers, especially any carrying on about your opinion of the Wii in general.

    I ask because I enjoy the gameplay of baseball in Wii Sports, but obviously would want something a lot less limited. I stayed away from The Bigs based on negative feedback about its gameplay. I bought and mostly enjoy MLB Power Pros, but I really want to use the Wiimote for hitting/pitching, not the conventional joystick and button method, and Power Pros only seems to let you do exhibition games if you go Wiimote style.

    I like pitching where my velocity is tied to how hard I actually "throw" with my arm, I like hitting that is tied to my arm mechanics. What Tiger Woods Golf is, I want a baseball equivalent.

    How does MLB 2k8 lineup in this regard on the Wii?
