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.

No bugs to report yet though. That's good, I might pick it up. I only rented it the first time.

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

      Reviewing the All-22: Week 1 @ JAX

      DB was getting washed early. Even in 1v1 situations. I think he figured it out later, but they definitely gave him more breaks in this game than I've ever seen him take. There was a play where an olineman rolled B. Brown up. The next play he absolutely wrecked the play. Need that BB to show up early on Sunday.

      2025 Salary Cap Offense/Defense

      By woahfraze · Posted

      I think Morgan has had the right general idea. The problem has been in execution.    Bryce year 1, there were myriad issues from roster talent to coaching and scheme, but the offensive line was particularly glaring. So they went out and  fixed the o-line by signing Hunt and Lewis.  That fix actually seems to have been at least moderately successful.    Last year, pass rush was a major issue. So they invested along the defensive line and at edge. The problem is, they either expended too many resources over correcting—partially because in free agency, when you’re a shitty franchise, you have to overpay to get talent in the door—or they didn’t make the right picks. It’s probably too early to pass judgment on the free agent class or draft picks as it’s only been one game. So we’ve got a small sample size and rookie edges may take time to develop. But if game 1 is any indication, they didn’t solve the problem.

      This is getting out of hand again. I swear some of yall just look for reasons to call out the QB, in an extremely thinly vieled "OFFENSIVE CAP HIT" statement.  All of that is offensive line. It was an overreaction to how horrible the guards were in 2023, where guys were starting multiple games that will never take a snap in the NFL again. Speaking of 2023... where did the offensive cap rank then? Where are those WRs playing in the league now? How much are the WRs, TEs and RBs making compared to the rest of the NFL? We have two, 1st round WRs on the roster. And they are the only WRs on the roster picked before the 4th round. One shouldn't have been a first rounder, he's only in his second season, AND he was literally outplayed by an UDFA rookie WR last year - that is currently on IR. The other WR picked before the 4th round has only played one game as a pro.  QB play needs to improve. Absolutely no friggin doubt about that. But, come on. That dude has not been dealt a fair hand, no matter how many ways you try to spin it. Let's hope he figures out how to make chicken salad out of the chicken poo this team has served him his entire time here. Hoping that this org finds another Cam Newton is not really a realistic expectation.
