Wow those were really nice pictures. Even though they were for the PS3 but I'm sure graphically it's the same game. I'm a little disappointed with the lack of a shot of the fielding interface though, as I don't remember seeing one, just reading about the RA control.

It used to be that I thought "legends" teams and players were lame because it always only included a handful. It seems that 2k has changed that this year and I couldn't be happier for it. Alan Trammell in a baseball video game is something I haven't had in quite a long time... the original RBI comes to mind (still a fantastic game I still play once in a while.) Nice to see nonetheless.

Ugh, seeing Seaver in a Reds uniform still rubs me the wrong way.

this game is definitely turning out to be a surprise. Just think what MLB 2k9 will be like. or if EA buys 2k, MVP 2k9 will be like with the ESPN capabilities and marketing ability. man, i'm pumped! I gotta say that if i was gay, i'd mary Ben Brinkman. sorry for that mental image. lol.

What if he just wants to be friends? Then see what happens.

Those minor league pics make me feel all warm and tingly inside

Yeah, these legends are something special. And speaking for myself, something totally unexpected.

On topic, now...

Once more, I'm stunned at how many legends are in this game (Molitor? Joe Carter? Dante freaking Bichette? Brilliant!) If many have signature style, that'll be fine for me. Authenticity should set these guys apart from Joe Generic Minor Leaguer.
I can't wait to play just to throw a fastball at Joe Carter's face..... repeatedly.

BTW, Dienkinger blew the call but the Cards still fell flat on their faces in game 7. Yeah I know, at least they made it to the Series in the last 63 years
Huh? Sandberg, Banks, Williams, Santo, and Jenkins are all in the game.

The PS3's grass looks volumetric compared to the 360's. Whats up with that?

Isn't the SWB Yankees pitcher Hughes? Looks like him to me, and he could be in the game since he played in the bigs last year.

Things look to be shaping up nicely. Its more friendly here unlike at 2K forums. I prefer the show and switched to PS3 but thats my peroative and I like to think people here dont push the Show on people too much
Let's PLEASE try to avoid these types of discussions, ok? Enough with the 2K vs. EA..err...Sony crap.

Anyone sensing a theme here?

This 2K8 as long as it makes great stride from 2K8 (which I think it has) I think we all should be fine. My disgust to your hype? None present here, I just wish we could talk 2K baseball here not The Show. As far as the postseason goes. Good job blowing the LCS.
Maybe you didn't read the post I wrote just above yours. Drop this discussion about comparing the two games, please.

Well the game will be here soon, i for one am pretty excited. Just for baseball in general The shots look good to me. Just nervous about transitioning to the swing stick...and pitching, i want it to be very difficult.
