    Already Too Many Problems

    This is a post from another thread:

    I was so looking forward to a good baseball game, envious as all get out of PS3 owners with the Show. I didn't expect 2k9 to be as good as the Show, but from everything I'm hearing and reading, this is an unmitigated disaster, and I'm so glad I haven't bought it.

    The thing that ticks you off even more is that nobody from 2k is acknowledging this fiasco. Either they're too embarrassed or they're planning on just sitting on their hands and doing nothing about it.

    I hope more people on the fence don't lose control and buy this mess. At least until 2k officially confirms that it can and will remedy this debacle.

    Wait a minute ... I used the words "disaster,'' "fiasco'' and "debacle'' in the same post. I just had a Madden flashback.
    Don't get me wrong, I love baseball, I love playing video game baseball. But I've had it with the glitches, broken features, work-a-rounds, lack of integrity etc. I'm not doing it anymore, not for another $60. I bought last years game because I "needed something new". This time I'm going to fight my childish OCD and do without. I say make up your own minds, but it's time to fight back a little. Peace 2K.

    Right you is Rosco.

    The more I read about this mess, the more I am amazed it was even allowed to be put on store shelves, and that any company would have the audacity to charge $60 for it.

    It's not baseball. Plain and simple. The many apologists will point out that "if you do this, and adjust that and hold the R stick a certain way and stand in a certain spot of the room with your arms and legs in this position at a particular time of day on the second Tuesday of the month'' you will get four called strikes in a nine-inning game every fourth game, only one dropped fly ball every four games, only two or three instances each week of the first baseman pulling his foot off the bag.''

    I don't know about you, but I'd rather not spend hours and hours trying to figure out the Da Vinci Code just to get a somewhat realistic game of baseball.

    I can't stop patting myself on the back for having the self-control to avoid forking over good money for this garbage.
    It's on me. I shook his hand too hard. It was a hard ... kind of a slap-shake.
