Major League Baseball 2K8 Interview

Shawn Drotar of 5W-G has posted a interview with Ben Brinkman, Producer of Major League Baseball 2K8.
Shawn Drotar: "What did you look at in last year’s game as something that just didn’t work, design-wise, and how have you changed that?"
Ben Brinkman: "Last year - and in previous years - it was more about looking good than feeling good. We decided early on that that wasn’t going to cut it. In fact, that was decided for us, and it was the correct decision, absolutely. There’s nothing fun about having an icon on screen that says, ‘push stick’ or whatever - and the guy just runs… There’s no point to hitting people over the head with this stuff; this is an interactive medium, and you want to do something and see a result, not do something and watch it play out."
Platform: PS2 / PS3 / PSP / Wii / Xbox 360

Cool..........I guess. Pretty sure we have seen Ben say this about 9 times before though.

Re: Major League Baseball 2K8 Interview

For some reason, after I read this, I was a little more optimistic for 2K8. I really think Brinkman is very good at what he does and I am going to buy this game now, with the demo, with out everybody elses opinion, I am just going to buy it.

I really do worry for our future as a society when I read posts like this.

Scotty boy: Then WAIT until the demo is released BEFORE you buy the game...

Does it get ANY easier than that?

Go to the link and see for yourself. It's 2k7 2.0, not a bad thing but I dont care about a stupid card system thats for kids. Then don't tell consumers the demo is coming early Feb and out right lie to consumers. Yes, I know its in MS hands but it's 5 days away from game release, So will we get the demo on Tuesday. I like to test drive a car before I buy. Don't you?
