Got it last night -- pretty cool game! I hear it is more arcadish compared to MLB the Show, but I don't have a PS3. Anyways the game is pretty realistic, I was impressed. Also I like the daily player updates that affect your players if they come off a bad or good game in real life. Graphics were pretty clean and has the signature batter box animations for the players.

However just an FYI for any baseball game fans, I hear this is the last year for the 2K series because EA Sports has signed an MLB licensing agreement for next year and I hear that The Show for PS3 is safe for now until their contract runs out. This is according to the Game Stop employees.

Anyways in conclusion, a decent & realistic game for the baseball fan at heart! :thumbsup:

Did you get a patch or update when you put the game in? I know I played it when it first came out and it was way too buggy.

Well I got a huge update with the new Xbox Dashboard/Live. I love how they are making it more like the Wii!! :rolleyes:

No bugs to report yet though.

Yea I had players actually running through outfield walls, not running bases correctly and fly balls just randomly hitting my players in the face when they were directly under the ball.

I hate 2k in baseball......I do not know why but they can never get a game right......I will admit they have been better than when EA made the game, all that game used to be was a homerun derby.

I wish The Show would come to the 360

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
