I guess that's possible, but highly unlikely considering VC's recent track record.

    If we want to blame someone for the lack of info, then we probably need to put the blame on 2K's PR department where it really belongs.
    Yup marketing rules the roost!

      And all the talk about NBA2K team working on it, it sure showed with the lack of baseball sense with that decision.

      Just because they make one gem (NBA2K), does not mean they have the mindsets to make a totally different sport another gem. There is always two ways to looking at it.

      Get the fundamentals down, and go from there.
      ^This. That's how I feel, I remember people at the 2Ksports forums were about to riot when they found out there were no check swings. That would be like a chess game without Rooks.

      At least they patched in check swings.

      But they need to seriously address the bugs in this series (some of those bugs have been around for 2+ years.)

      Despite the lack of those fundamentals, it was a pretty decent game last year. There were certain things they did that were really good (the commentary, ballparks, sig styles, MLB Today, etc.). Overall, it was a good effort by VC and I enjoyed it for the most part.

      I think they have a fairly good chance of building on it and putting out an excellent game this year.

      With that said, there's also a chance they'll mess it up. I'm waiting until the demo, and if it's not up to snuff, I'm going to seriously look into upgrading from a PS2 to a PS3.
      Hey Jeffy777,

      I hope you keep posting at the 2Kforums too.

      I agree with this post here, and it makes a good point.

      Last years game was AWESOME, but no errors, no injuries, and all the bugs absolutely ruined the experience. (remember the invisible bat bug in MyPlayer mode? lol.) So I gave up and traded it in.

      Anyone who knows me from the 2K boards knows how I worked hard to put together the bug list for Ronnie2K. There were over 45 items listed, and I know the dev team was working off my list at patch time. They did fix some things with patches last year, and I would hope a full year would give them time to fix 'er up more completely.

      Heres a link to a thread of the bugs from last year;

        If I were 2K I'd keep all my failures a secret too... Best to let people plunk down the $60 and THEN figure out they got screwed.

        Won't make the same mistake this year, and I'm willing to bet this will be a low sales year for this game.
