MLB 2K13 Announced with Cover Athlete David Price, Arrives March 5th

I understand the glitz and glimmer of 2k7 but it really wasn't a great game. I prefer 2k12 miles more than 2k7. Just my opinion.

Yes, 2k7 graphics were great but gameplay wasn't there. As a matter of fact I tried to play about 2 weeks ago, ugh. Went back to 2k12, much much better game of baseball, albeit, ugly at times.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Definitely going to approach this game with a wait-and-see approach. I bought 2k12 and barely ended up playing it. Just couldn't get into it this year for some reason.

And why not take the million dollar marketing gimmick and put it into producing a better product?

I've heard so many people rave about 2K7, but never played it myself.
I was wondering what that game did right? What made that game so great?

It looked great. I enjoyed it, but it was too long ago for me to rememeber much else. I think it also had rain delays. It did some things right.

But a big drawback was that hitting was very random. A developer for a 2K8 even admitted as much.

People rave about 2k7's visuals...and wondering why the games graphics too such a large decline after Kush left...and why they didn't keep the same graphics processors and tools, instead of going for the cartoon look it has today....

No one can tell us different.....we never said the gameplay was perfect, as they've improved on that aspect every year since......But look at the screenshots attached and tell me why did we not improve from this point.

They can't "go back" to MLB 2K7. MLB 2K7 was developed by Kush Games and when they left - unfortunately - MLB 2K7 left with 'em ( this is also a reply to the post above wondering why the graphics declined ). Things changed after MLB 2K7 because I'm guessing 2K and Kush had a disagreement.

It really can't be put into words. You have to play MLB 2K7 on the 360. It can't be on the PS3. They're not the same game.
