    Why no outrage...

    over the bugs and carelessness of the people who make this game? I don't get it. If this were Madden their would be calls for boycotts of EA and complaint after complaint. Heck there already are EVERY year. Yet 2k sports puts out bug riddled game after bug riddled game and it barely makes a blip. Sure people complain but not nearly as strongly. Why?

    I am without a baseball game for my 360 because of the poor job this company does.

    Man I wish this company would just fold up and die. What Uwe Boll is to videogame movies they are to videogame sports. The only thing I am happy about is that they did not sting me for another 60 bucks this year. I will use my money for God of War II and The Show for PS1 instead.

    Thanks for ruining next gen baseball for 360 owners 2k sports!

    Re: Why no outrage...

    I actually feel they delivered excactly what they had promised.

    They stated this would be a 3 year fix, focusing first on making the game playable which with 2k6 it was not. 2k7 is a playable game with what seems to be a bunch of franchise issues.

    The franchise issues are unfortunate, but the makers made no secret of the fact that franchise would be focused on in the following years.

    So for somebody like me that bought the game with the expectation to be able to play a fun game of baseball and expected their to be problems with the franchise this year I got excactly what I expected for my $60.

    People who expected more just didn't listen.

      I'm sure I could scan the boards and figure out what everyone means by how this game is 'bug riddled', but I'm clueless. This is one of the best games I've ever played.

        Don't look, you'll be better for it.

        Also, if you look like I have, and have noticed the bugs yourself, but continue to just play, you'll be fine.

            Another EA fanboy thread of hatred. The game is good now get over it.

            Madden is mediocre football, thats why its boycotted, MLB 2k7 is a masterpiece with minor flaws. Not a washed down cashcow of a game like Madden.

            If you don't like it, get the current gen looking game MLB 07 The show on PS3. Its really looks promising (sarcasim).

            2k even patched their game this morning....Madden waits til 3 months later to even thing about a patch.

              And they stated earlier that it was a three year project. The game was seen as universally bad last year and now people actually like it. That's a pretty big improvement.

              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                You are without a baseball game because you refuse to spend $60. Not becaus eof this game.

                I am not happy with the stuff that goes on in Gm/mode but I can live with it. It would be nice if 2k could patch it or say that next years game they will focus alot more on correcting this but it probably won't happen. This game is fun. That is what matters most. Go buy the thing or wait until you can get it cheap and chill out.

                    Called a fanboy by Behindshadows, surreal, anybody who has spent more than ten minutes on OS forums knows how ridiculous that statement is coming from you.

                    Masterpieces don't have flaws. I would hardly consider the franchise bugs (not going into them here, don't want to spoil the "masterpiece" for anybody) "minor flaws".

                    To the guy who said I don't want to spend $60, you are absolutely correct. I am not spending money on a buggy product with an unplayable (for me) franchise mode. The price of this game will be $20 in about a month anyway.

                    The posters here are great. You guys are making my argument for me. I especially love the post about them "telling" us they were not going to focus on franchise this year. I guess I am an idiot for assuming they would fix existing franchise bugs, silly me. Wonder why they changed other stuff in franchise though? I thought they were not going to touch it until year 3?

                    Just by reading these few posts my question has been answered, the answer? Blind loyalty to a crappy company. Screw this, lock thread, I'm done...

                      You know the old saying, "Fool me once shame on you.....etc. etc."

                      I learned my lesson from these jokers. I knew this would happen. The game does not even appear to be worth a rent let alone a purchase for a franchise guy like me.

                              Flame bait. Dienekes, you shouldn't comment on a game you don't own. Look around. There are plenty of people constructively criticizing this game. You could learn a lot from them.
