Re: IGN review up

Our survey said, eh.

No mention of fatigue bug.

I stopped reading after the commentary sounded repetitive wording. Anyone can tell they added commentary this year that played the game last year.

I haven't encountered the HR robbing bug, yet over several games. I know it's there, lucky for me, I guess.

This game is much better than last years game, not just minor improvements or "baby steps."

Yeah, the fatigue bug needs patched and so does the HR bug. I've only had one bad AI decision so far. If they tightened up the AI with the above, this would be a great game.

Re: IGN review up

Overall its the best baseball game 2Ks made since 2K7. I'm having enough fun that I actually took my rental back and bought the game for 40 bucks and I swore I'd never buy a 2K baseball game again. Im just hoping that the inevitable second patch will work without having to start my franchise over again.

Re: IGN review up

How many reviews of an MLB2K title since 2007 have essentially said that the game shows some promise but has too many glitches and an overall lack of polish that hold it back, but "I look forward to seeing what 2K sports brings next year."? Dozens? It's the same story every year with these guys, they keep ignoring or failing to find game-killing bugs and neglecting fundamentals of baseball in the AI. It makes it all the more frustrating to know that, with even a bit of effort given to play testing and cleaning up the sloppy AI, this game could be really good, but instead we're stuck every year with "Still not great, but wait until next year!"

Re: IGN review up

I'm only going to say this and I'm done 2k did a helluv a job this year its not perfect no game has no game ever will be..the strides they made from 2k9 to now is phenomenal each year has been an e improvement over the last whether it be big strides or little steps. So my advice to you is to rent the gm first then judge it on its own not merits not based on the Show or on so reviewer who spent an hour or so on the game make your own criteria and see if the gm meets it thank you.
