It's OK we get the message.

Again like High Heat Baseball, we should have more control.

Break it up a little. Semi sim. In High Heat you could CPU Batting and fielding and control pitching and visa versa.

When playing off line be able to set all teams roster with out a budget problem.

Be able to sign any player on all teams from the FA pool during Franchise season.

Be able to put a player on the disable list who are there in real life.

Be able to do all those things when you place the controller in the center to see actual play in sim mode. Then interupt play and make the necessary changes by moving the controller to your team then move the controller to center and resume play.

They need to make the 9th inning its own monster. When a closer comes in the game just becomes different and baseball games need to reflect this. Crowd noise needs to effect the closer or pump him up. The controller needs to rattle. Clutch batters should be able to go into a zone. Same thing with closers. When they have a 2 strike count, throwing their out pitch perfectly should be difficult but if pulled off then the pitch should be deadly ( K-Rods curve/change, Mo's cut fastball, Paps fastball)


How about instead of making a separate GM game you guys just incorporate all of that stuff into MLB 2K9

They should add a season online tournament with stats like yahoo fantasy baseball. Have something like yahoo fantasy baseball but instead members who join your league have to play out the games and if you don't show up then a challenging computer will play it out for you.Have private leagues too.

Have a challenging computer that does the exaggerated shift like an infielder playing the outfield when a power hitter like Ryan Howard comes to bat.The fielding positioning should automatically be done for you.

I would like to see the computer catcher throw snap throws to the bases.

One cool feature would be to add any songs from your hard drive to the players . Like if i decide to put the song that Alex Rodriguez actually uses when he walks up to bat "this is why im hot."

The stadium looked better and was shinier on the 2k7 than the 2k8 version so that should be improved.


The pitching Style on the game "The Bigs" made by 2k sports is awesome on hard level and should be added to 2k9. The thing i love about it is that it is challenging to hit the strike zone consistently because you have to time it almost perfect to hit the top of the meter. If you miss the meter by a bit it goes out of the strike zone.This is what you want simple pitching mechanics and challenging at the same time to hit the strike zone.Have the crowd play a role on this too. When the crowd gets loud your pitcher could get a little nervous and your controller rumbles.

I think the way the players looks on the game "The Bigs" looks hot and that's how they should look on 2k9.

The pitching Style on the game The Bigs made by 2k is awsome on hard level and should be added to 2k9.

That's already in the game bro.

Idk man, I hope there are but it's seriously late in the dev cycle. The game comes out in March, 3 months.

Maybe they can change animations and such but not like game modes.

I wish the Developers came on here and chatted with us like Ian/Phil do for Madden.
