Miller and Morgan Will NOT be back in 2k9...

[StevenSeagalsLipitor]

Who would you rather see? Realistically, the word is they're going with the Giants current announcers ( Mike Krukow and Duane Kuiper) but who would YOU like to see? I would like to see Vin Scully.

Oh and word on the street is Miller and Morgan won't be back because they want to much money AND they want there names on the cover (if you can believe that), the money is one of the reasons they didn't record new audio in 2k8.

Really??? Where did you hear this? Miller and Morgan might not be the best in the world, but they are way better than Mike and Duane...just pop in MVP 05 and you'll know what I mean.

Interesting. Do you have a link and/or source for this?

Regardless, I'm okay with the rumored announcing duo, as long as they have more recorded lines than they did in MVP. But I didn't mind them then, and I won't mind them now.

As who I'd like to hear? Sean McDonough comes to mind.

Someone I know who works/worked in the development/production of 2k8 told me this.

Was there even new audio recorded for 2K7?

OK I Dunno if I but the whole "I Have a friend who works there" concept. Many have tried that U don't gotta lie

But anyways I would use Dan & Peter from 2k Football Series. Well even if you just hired the voice actors to do 2 new guys, that audio was great. U eventually got tired of some of it, but it was one of the largest libraries I heard for PBP. Took me awhile to hear most of the stuff in the games

StevenSeagalsLipitor: Are you hearing anything about improvements for next year? Will they allow custom sliders for online games next year? Not sure why it was taken out in the first place.

Thanks!

Maybe Steve Physioc will be one of the commentators.He hasn't done a whole lot of Angels games this year.I know him and Rex Hudler have been on the radio though too, but I don't think they were doing it at the beginning of the season.So Physioc could of been working with 2k during that time.

Regardless, Kuiper and Krukow will get annoying, though pretty much anyone will after a while. They were the duo from MVP 05 and Krukow's one liners are just as bad as Morgan's antics, just in a different way. I'm sure it will be an upgrade just because they are cheaper, and closer to the studio's, so they should be able to get a whole lot more dialouge. While I hope it is not them, any new duo will at least add a level of freshness to the presentation.

Kuiper is the one who announced Bond's record breaking homerun (and most others).."He Hits it High, He Hits it Deep, This one is outta here!!!!"

Hopefully they have several variations of this call and use it sparingly (different levels of emotion) or after a while you're not going to want to hit HR's.

Krukow is the guy from MVP who would mention the "Ol Neck Ball" everytime you threw one up and in on a guy. He just likes to drop 1990's baseball lingo whenever he can.

Sorry if I sound bitter, but my roomate in college was a Giants fan and I was forced to listen to these guys way more than I wanted to for the better part of two years.

Who would I want? I don't know, but in all honesty, the less popular they are, it's likely that they will be cheaper and more available. I'll take Dan and Peter from APF 2K8 if they provide a high quanity of quality, meaningful dialouge. I'm not a real big fan of any of the ESPN teams.

I think they should hire Harold Reynolds and John Kruk,

Reynolds is on SNY, but I loved those two when they would be on baseball Tonight together

I'm not crazy about Kruk but hiring Reynolds would be a great idea.
