EA Isn't Working on a Baseball Game...

Hopefully EA Sports will develop a game for next gen.

Of course they're going to deny it. You can't flat out say you're negotiating a contract while the old one is still in effect because that would be tampering, so until the 2k contract expires EA has to deny everything unless they want a lawsuit.

What are you talking about? the contract ended once 2k12 was released. I want to say they are waiting for the next gen consoles, why develop a brand new engine for just one game?

Lets all sign this Bring MVP Baseball Back Campaign:

The good news is, if you buy a 160GB PS3 at Target this week, you get MLB 12 The Show for free. What better time to experience the best baseball game out there. Then you're all set for next year too.

I always found it odd (and a bit disheartening) that two companies took, what I thought, were the wrong licenses based on their strengths. I get why EA wrapped up NFL exclusivity (more than one reason), and then 2K was basically left with having to somehow counter that move. In the end the only losers were the consumers.

IMHO, 2K had the better football title while EA had the far stronger baseball title. MVP was a good series and one of the few games I would have liked to see EA continue developing.

Regardless I would have certainly preferred no exclusive licenses, altogether. Competition breeds innovation.

someone call konami and tell them to make us another MLB bobble heads game

Or better yet, use their Pro Yakyuu Spirits engine to make a multiplatform MLB game.
