These guys need to generate some buzz for their title. Many people have been thouroughly dissappointed the last few years. They need to be showing some actual gameplay or screenshots to generate some interest. It's like the head of marketing for this title is secretly collecting a bigger check from SCEA.............Wow

I just honestly don't know how you go from being the premier baseball video game and turn into this. Like someone else said these videos do not make me want to rush out and buy the game. They have now released two trailers that show NO gameplay footage. What gives 2k.

Rather than sign and pay all those players to promote the game, why didn't they just take that money and put it INTO the development of the game itself? Oh wait I forgot this is 2k where the only sports title that gets the budget and effort it needs is NBA.

Sadly, none of these things 2K is doing will make the game a seller or play better. Let's hope they have some goods things up their sleeves this time out.

Oh, thank the heavens that 2K figured out exactly what fans of the MLB2k franchise want: endorsements by real major leaguers.

Ugh. I'm with y'all. I'm really hoping that this year's game will be good...no, forget that, at this point I'll take acceptable and without game destroying bugs (random fielding errors, sudden loss and catch up in fielding speed, CPU swinging at every strike, wonky baserunning and ball physics, among other things) and screwups in franchise mode (217?, unable to edit players, weird stats).

But it seems to me (and I'm afraid) that if 2k had something that they were really proud of, they'd just be coming out and telling us about it themselves, rather than spending money to have ballplayers come out and try to do it instead. They say they're focusing on the pitching/batting for this year, which is great, cause imo it was only everything else in the game that needed to be fixed, not the pitching/batting. I really hope that the next "news" is actually news about the game and that they've listened to people and fixed all these things. I'm just not holding much hope anymore.

It is a shame that NBA2k is the only game that gets a good budget, cause it is really good (despite the flaws). Could you imagine MLB2k with a MLB Today feature integrated in? I'd buy (as long as the above fixes were in place).

Maybe there'll be a PS3 sale sometime in the next 2 months...

This really scares me almost like they are trying to justify this game by saying all these pros helped or give their stamp of approval .
Just show the game guys all the improvements .

If they were going to use all these players in marketing, they should've gone with regional covers. Casual fan in Washington is more likely to look at the display case and go "FELIX! I want that one" instead of just buying The Show like hardcore fans do.

This really insults one's intelligence. They think by having this ridiculous panel promote the game they can fool people into thinking it's the real deal. In other words, they think we're chumps who can't figure out the difference between style and substance.

What a freaking embarrassment this series has become.

How a company that makes such good basketball games can roll out this rubbish on an annual basis is beyond me.
