    I guess you could punish 2K buy not buying the game even if it is fantastic. Otherwise, who heck cares what info they release and when. I like it when I get that info, but this entitlement issues some gamers seem to get about unreleased games is just insane.

    If you really want 2K to feel some pain, don't post about it. Don't talk about how bad you want info on the game. Pitching a fit because you can't watch some video of an unreleased game is just a good sign for 2K that their marketing is working.

    Even if you say you won't buy it, that's a lie. How can you get this upset over a game you don't even know if you will buy? It's really ludicrous if you think about it.
    Unbelievable. You missed the entire point. No one is kicking, screaming, and/or stomping, or threatening to boycott a game because of the lack of info. Take a deep breath.......now....go back and re-read the post.

      Really? Because I could have sworn you said that the lack of information was not tolerable or acceptable. If something is not tolerable or acceptable, then a reaction is required.

      All you can do is not buy the game or whine about it in a forum. So far, you have chosen to whine about it in a forum.

        Umm... nobody bought the game the last three years, that didn't really change much. Whining in here and hoping the VC devs see us is about the only option...

              I just am surprised that how bad this game was rated and taken in by the community they would release more info and video's to show people the strides they have made to improve this game, but i am sorry for me it just makes me think the same ol is going there....sigh as a xbox360 owner i really hope i am wrong.

                The poster you quoted raised legit concerns. 2K had no trouble releasing footage of their NBA game well before release. There's more footage out there for Topspin and it gets released after their baseball game. If they're serious about listening to their consumers then the poster did his part by posting his feelings and concerns. No need to call him "that guy" whatever that means. "That guy" has the same concerns I do

                    Listen, I know what you were referring to when you said "That Guy", if you actually paid attention to my post, all i am Saying is that look at any other Sports 2k and others, we have videos of gameplay of all sorts.

                    Last year even though videos came out 3 weeks prior to release they were very limited as what it was showing, and we know why after we played it, we found all the problems pretty apparent when playing the first couple of games. I back what i am saying, from the past 4 years, 2k shows what they are proud of and don't and that ends of being was subpar. I am not saying i am 100% accurate, but its fact as what happened with this game in the past.

                      I concur. After rushing out to buy MLB 2K8 thinking they improved on 2K7 I didn't mind the lack of info due to fact that 2K7 look and played so good. Man was I let down and disappointed by 2K8, so I vowed never to buy another MLB 2K game until I heard positive feedback and played a decent demo without thinking oh they might patch this or that. After 2K7 this company is really shady with baseball period, at least on older consoles they made good baseball games and you had a choice now there's only two and the one for Xbox 360 cares about money not quality, that's a shame. 2K8, 2K9, 2K10, and I'm positive 2K11 all FAILURES. Yes, I still play 2K7 and love it, wind blowing jerseys and accurate sun positions in the morning, afternoon, and evening times is still a masterpiece.
                      Coming is my style, but I have to go.

                        Waiting for positive feedback and playing the demo is a wise course of action before buying any game, especially this one.

                        However, there is no way you can be positive 2k11 will be a failure. Not when initial previews and feedback has been all favorable. That doesn't necessarily mean it'll be good, but it's far too soon to declare it'll be like disasters of the past.
                        It's on me. I shook his hand too hard. It was a hard ... kind of a slap-shake.

                          I agree. It's pretty silly to proclaim 2K11 as a failure before it's even released.

                          I really like what Owen Good said in his 2K11 preview for Kotaku:

                          "At some point, you have to judge a game on its merits and not the intrigue surrounding it. I think MLB 2K11 has earned that benefit of the doubt. In two key areas - pitching and multiplayer - MLB 2K10 was my preferred option. The refinements I was shown by MLB 2K11 speak of a studio that designed improvements to a good game, instead of a team saddled with overhauling a bad one."

                            I think this week will be the week we some some actual gameplay footage. Just a vibe. At least I hope this is the week.

                            Any word on a demo?

                              I hope you are right, as I am anxious to see some footage, too.

                              My guess is that when there is actual word on a demo, you won't have to ask.

                                OH joy, another "no info means it's going to be a bad game thread". Yet there has been information out about MLB2K11 and the majority of it has been positive. You can find most of that info right here on OS. People say the same thing over and over again year after year after year. YAWN!!! It's February 13th, does the game come out on Tuesday?
