    Why all the bugs... problems...

    As a baseball fan and gamer it makes me sad to see all the problems that are happening with 2K5. Next year we won't have any choices in baseball games and will have to live with holes in this game (if they aren't corrected) or not play at all...

    They'll be corrected. This game will rock next year, no question. Too bad they got sucked into competing with EA this year, and then rushed the game into production. There was no reason for that. Imagine this game, fixed and fine tuned, coming out just as BB season starts. I'd buy it! I'd buy two copies...

        On the plus side, the MLB license means Take Two can take more time to QA and debug next year as there shouldn't be a head to head battle with EA to rush product to stores first. I would expect as a result next year's game should be less buggy.

        On the other hand, losing the ESPN license could seriously set back the strength of the product - it's presentation and announcing, leaving us with a lesser experience. Take Two will really have to pull a rabbit out of its hat to avoid that setback.

            well, when you look at what kush did with the nhl 2k series, 2k5 w/o a doubt being the most sim hockey game ever made i think there is a great chance take2 can do the same for baseball.

                I agree: impossible to replace Joe and John. On the other hand ;-) NFL 2K5 proved all you need is a great game and decent announcing. With a lot of work on the game play and a little bit of Fox Sports or whatever thrown in, it'll be fine hopefully. Oh yeah, they need to fire the High Heat animators they hired when 3DO folded and get some people who can actually recreate human faces and bodies...

                    Thank God I got a PS2 and will still have a choice next year
                    I creating Ryan Langarhans and put him in the braves roster, but not only my entire braves roster changed but other teams roster changed too. Why is that. Now if the braves or other teams trade or sign players, there will be no point for chsnging it. If u don't have online like me, u be sad too.

                        I won't predict anything but I bet next year's game will be leaps and bounds better considering they don't have to compete with EA and Sony didn't try and do the "release the game 2 weeks earlier at the last minute" thing.

                            And we won't really miss the ESPN thing all that much (or at all) if they can grab the Fox rights.
