It's been awhile, but I believe you need to buy the ring at The Shop and then take her to the park or one of those places and give it to her.

Re: Is MLB Power Pro series dead?

I honestly won't be looking forward to another one until they put it on PS3, but this is a shame regardless. Such a great series.

If it comes back in 2010 (when The Bigs isn't up against it LOL) this isn't all bad. I can last with 2008 until then considering how I'm always whining that sports games should be coming out every other year anyway.

Ughh, 2k you really know how to alienate baseball fans.
So true. I mean among TRUE baseball fans who would want Power Pros over such a "stupendous simulation" in The Bigs.

Personally, no one on my friend list even had the first Bigs. 2K Sports is really going downhill and fast.

Re: Is MLB Power Pro series dead?

Overall I've really loved this series, and am sad to see it go. There was a point where I thought it was too easy, but had forgotten about the pitch speed option(), and after turning it up to fast I had a much better challenge.

This is true, you are under team control for 5 years, after the fifth year you can go to free agency.

I guess I'll put it in spoilers for people who don't want to know...

Hope that helps.

They cut the one game that wasn't garbage? Wow! I don't know what to say. It's amazing that they are even still in business.

They're working on it. The thing about a downhill slope is the higher you start the longer it takes to get to the absolute bottom.

LOL @ the last line of the letter...

"PS: You should try out some of our other titles! They're great!"

Its a shame that they are dropping their best baseball game (IMO), but I could see it being due to contractual matters with Konami (which is the reason this is the best 2K baseball game). I finally bought 2008 a couple of months ago, after having a hard time actually finding it in stores. Luckily I got it for $10 from the Circuit City closeout. It has actually got some playtime in my BC PS3, while I waited for The Show. I will definitely play it more, now that I know this is the end of the line.

2K is just hard to figure these days...lol
