MLB 2K13, how much are you willing to pay?

I look forward to hearing the broadcast team talk about the events of 2012. Will be interested to see if they comment on the playoffs in the game.

If they did not work on this game earlier in the cycle, this could be a huge pitfall.

I enjoy 2k11 on 360 and 2k12 on pc too much to bother with 2k13. The current 2k11 rosters on 360 are good enough to play franchise wise, and the graphics on pc 2k12 are good enough to marvel at.

If it was released on the pc I'd pay $30.

For 360? Maybe $40.

I'm guessing the main reason 2k fans are mostly excited about this release is we will get the new divisional alignment. I would be fairly happy just continuing 2k12 as is except for that.

I own every baseball game on God's green earth....so I'll get it, but since it isn't going to be a necessity to play, I'll wait for a price drop if it's regular retail to start.

Re: MLB 2K13, how much are you willing to pay?

Last year they offered 2 games for the price of 1 (NBA 2k12 packaged in). $29.99 seems fair if it is the bare minimal upgrade. If they offer more content I have no problem paying more.

I said the same thing last night. Plus I had no plans on getting 2 baseballs this yr since 2K was not coming and I still have no plans on paying 60 for 2 baseball games this yr, like it or not.

The NFL didn't care that 2K sold their game for $20. Otherwise they could have just changed their licensing agreement to require them to sell new software at a minimum price.

EA cared that their competition was undercutting their price/profit. THAT'S why THEY went to the NFL for the exclusive deal.

I wouldn't pay over $20.

Re: MLB 2K13, how much are you willing to pay?

I really love playing this game, and look forward to it arriving. I'm strictly a 360 guy - so this is my baseball game each year. If it's $60, then so be it... I don't buy many games anymore, so it's well worth the money. But that's just me...

[GruffyMcGuiness]

No way I buy it unless it's $20. 2K's games are an embarrassment to baseball.

I may be wrong, but I had heard different.
From what I've read (looking for links now), the NFL wasn't very pleased with 2K offering their product for such a low price, making their brand look bad.
So they went out looking for an exclusive deal and contacted EA first. The rest is history.

I really hope that eventually all licenses are opened up so that anyone can make whatever sports game they want. Competition is great for consumers.

My understanding is that EA had been begging for an exclusive NFL license for years, and finally the money/timing was right. I would be surprised if it had anything whatsoever to do with how 2k priced NFL2k, but I don't have any evidence to support that.

Regardless, that was the beginning of the end of my obssessive sports gaming...so maybe a good thing in the end.

Re: MLB 2K13, how much are you willing to pay?

I used to buy 2k & Show every year, that is until last year.
I haven't had as much time to play two baseball games, & bein' a PS3 owner,
I stuck with the Show last year.

Long story long, I would buy 2k this year if it were less than $30.
I don;t see that happenin' though.
When 2k12 comes down in price, I won;t be able to resist finally pickin' it up,
even though I'll only play it sparingly.

I picked up 12 at the Microsoft Store on Black Friday for $10 shipped.

Re: MLB 2K13, how much are you willing to pay?

If the game plays like the real major leagues, have a smarter ai, a deeper franchise mode that rivals mlb the show, and I don't have to adjust the sliders to make the game play realistically and put out realistic baseball stats, I would pay full price for mlb 2k12. All of the problems the previous games had I could actually live with. My main problem with the 2k baseball franchise has been the unrealistic stats that were put out between the user and the computer. I would have off these wall scores and stats that would reflect stats from the real world. Sliders can't fix these type of problems. But that's just me..

Re: MLB 2K13, how much are you willing to pay?

Im going to assume that this is going to be a cheaply made game. Most likely will change two small things and update the rosters. They will try and sucker people out of 60 bucks. They still will likely end up losing money on it though
