    Thanks, Igor.
    It's on me. I shook his hand too hard. It was a hard ... kind of a slap-shake.

        I would be curious to see, with regards to the release date for this game, the contract between the 2K team and Major League Baseball. Because I think, at this point, they had to get the game out by a certain date or risk losing their exclusivity deal.

        I mean, it would be one thing for them to release this game half-finished and then just take the money and run. But the fact that they are putting together what seems like a comprehensive patch makes me think that they were mandated to put the game out on a certain date and just ran out of time. It's still not an excuse, but it makes me feel a little bit more forgiving towards VC.

          I wonder who's more disappointing/angry with 2K for releasing this game....Major League Baseball or Microsoft.

            I doubt that a bunch of fat cats sitting in their 5th Avenue high-rise office buildings -- or wherever they are -- really care about the quality of the game, or even are aware that it bites. Their only concern is how much money it makes them. They'll take a travesty of a game that makes money (apparently this one) over a solid title that doesn't make money (apparently College Hoops) any day.

              I personally think 2k put themselves into quite a predicament. I think one of the biggest difficulties sports franchises face is the 1 year development cycle. You really need a solid base to work from. That's why alot of sports franchises dont do alot of drastic changes. I commend 2k for what they attempted with 2k8 completly overhauling the control scheme but this probably would have served us gamers a better purpose by doing it without the exclusive liscence. Look at the NHL franchise not many people would argue that the NHL2k series was better until 08 and 09 when ea took over. Ea had a few years to perfect right analog controls and it was ok because we could play 2k. As of now with exclusive rights 2k has to release a baseball game and recoup money they spent on that liscence. I like the game and think it has massive potential just don't expect miracles to happen in one year.

                  If every legit gamer was like you and was so closed minded, it's a wonder any sports company sells games period. Video games are not real life and hence will never be perfect. To each their own but your little rant proves nothing about you being a legit gamer. I think you have a long way to go before you come into that category. Gamers appreciate a company's efforts and they acknowledge when a company makes the effort to listen to their community. For a first year effort from VC, these patches will go a long way.

                  Sorry you wasted your money.

                  Sorry I "troll" online I see people can't take perspective.

                    Stop trolling. This is grounds for warning. You must love the game or speak nothing of it. All the best Operation Sports.

                      First and only warning - discuss the patch, and just the patch.. Any further going "off topic" will cause this thread to be shut down.

                          Dang...so I gues I can't discuss "Caveman Games" any further.

                          Jokes aside. I'm wondering if people are pinning too much hop on this patch. I mean the game is so buggy overall, I just don't know. I'm not saying one shouldn't be hopeful for a better product. I just think some people might be setting themselves up for diappointment.

                          Chances are if you don't like the game much now, you won't like it after the patch. It will still be the same game, should just be a bit more stable overall. Just a thought.

                            Well, I'm really enjoying the game right now. I have encountered all the known issues that have been posted but the occurrences have been rare. I doubt I will play a franchise...I have never done that with a console game (might give it a go...just not sure yet). The fixes that are already confirmed are a great step. Anyway, as for myself, I'm loving it and am really looking forward to the patch.

                              That's good. I have no doubt people already enjoying the game will only enjoy it more post-patch. I also have no doubt that several who are trying to get into it (because the generally enjoy the 2K brand of baseball) might be able to finally get going post-patch. Between the patch fixes and the potential roster editor and other PC mods, I'm hopeful to start getting into this game a bit more as well.

                              I'm speaking more about those expecting this to "fix" a game they find to be completely (or nearly) broken. The more significant issues will hopefully be addressed, but this will still be the same game overall. If one doesn't see any potential in 2K9 (as a current title) then the patch likely won't change their mind.

                              Just getting that out there before the flood of "THIS GAME IS STILL CRAP...THE PATCH DIDN'T FIX IT!!!" type threads start rolling in...lol

                                I can't stand playing 2K9 right now, but I don't see the whole game as being broken. It's just that the things which are wrong with it are REALLY annoying to me, but thankfully those things are mentioned in the fix list (AI aggression, pickoffs being too easy, flyball issues, homeruns are WAY too easy to hit online) so if those problems can get ironed out, I could see myself enjoying 2K9, especially online.

                                I just hope they don't let me down like last year when they said they were going to fix the online lag, but never did
