    Bob Brinkman not the end-all-be-all, folks...

    I kept reading, for MONTHS, about how Brinkman was going to do this and that for this game, how he would be making all sorts of changes, how he was basically the head hauncho. Folks, the guy was brought in for his OPINIONS, that's it. He was never going to design this game himself. He wasn't going to be hiring/firing development teams.

    I think Bob Brinkman sucks and did a horrible job on this game.....

    Now I like what BEN Brinkman did with this years game and I cant wait to see how the game improves in the future.

      Ya, I don't know about that Bob fellow...but sounds like that Ben Brinkman guy did some good things with the game this year.

        This years game is fantastic and a lot of credit should goes to the former EA Sports MVP Baseball lead guy.

        Thanks Mr. Brinkman for making it a fun experience again.

            Excuse me... Ben Brinkman brought back a respectable game of baseball in 2ksports.... There are alot of happy people right now.. Ben and his game developers did a great job. Again this is only year 1 of a 3 year plan. From what people are saying I'm extremelly excited to see what next year brings!!!!

              This game is not perfect. BUT........ it's very very good. There are issues, sure, but a respectable, very good game has arrived on the 360, finally. The jump from last year's game to this year's game is amazing. No, not every single little issue is fixed and everybody will nitpick about that, but the game has come a LOOOONG way. And people that are having issues with the fielding cam, I feel for ya, but I think that will pass. After playing a couple games it's a non-issue for me.

                Game is much better than last year and this is a 3 year project.

                MVP was good after its first year so is this.

                  I have a question. Did you play MLB2k6? You can't even make these comments with a straight face if you had. This game isn't perfect and I haven't read comments by him or any other previewer that mis-represented what this game was supposed to be/is. You obviously were expecting something more. And that's OK. But seriously..........

                      LOL! It's one thing for people to complain with a valid point, but it doesn't help when they can't even get the person's name right.

                        Seriously this game is an update 2k6, the 3 year plan begins NEXT YEAR. So if you played 2k6 on 360 this game is more of the same, the evolution of this game begins NEXT YEAR.

                            I disagree. Think this game is a major upgrade over 2k6. I can even finish a complete game, without a lockup. (Knocks on wood.)

                              The difference between 2k6 and MLB 2k7 is like night and day. I played 2k6 for like 10 min before selling it. I've been playing 2k7 since 10 am this morning. Awesome game! Nothing to complain about, looks and plays great. No complaints about the fielding camera, I think it is fine and haven't had ANY problems with it. Quit complaining people! Ben Brinkman is the MAN!
