MLB 2K8: Diary of a Giant Turnaround, Part 2

Lol, ya I can see it now "get rid of Howard he is a burden to our club". That would probably lead me to the possibility of throwing the game out the window.

Good read. The way he described everything about his franchise sounds like he had alot of fun with it, and thats what i plan to do when this game drops.

I wish he would've commented more on the gameplay this time around and and not solely on simming the seasons... I'm curious to hear how the game plays more than it simulates...

Considering he made it through two seasons in a week, I doubt he did much playing at all.

The point of the writeup is to talk about the franchise not gameplay.....so I think it served its purpose

And that's why I'll play my franchise with owner firing turned off. Very stupid AI logic.

And the trade logic is still incredibly flawed. Why would the Yankees trade Joba Chamberlain for two washed up middle infielders, and a slightly above average outfielder, when they wouldn't consider trading him for Johan Santana? I'll still get the game, and have a blast playing it, but they're killing me with the trade logic.

I agree this disappointed me, those trades are just terrible logic. Texiara (sp?) and Chamberlin would not be traded in those situations. The braves just gave up their farm for Tex and like he said the Yanks wouldnt even trade Joba for Johan
