The frustration is understandable.

After the first insight, Ronnie told people he had several insights approved and there would be no more delays. Five days later... delays due to an unapproved screenshot. He clearly did not have the Insights approved in that case and I find it curious why he told all his Twitter followers he did.

That said, I feel badly for him. I often get the impression he is one man dealing within a dysfunctional management structure.

Take2 and 2K are two disorganized companies from the top down. Just look at the refusal to sell to Electronic Arts. EA offered to buy the company at three times its current stock value and T2 refused. The decision cost shareholders millions (if not billions) and employees their jobs.

Regardless, other insights are coming. I'm still excited about the direction 2K10 is taking and the only blemish (for me) so far is the lack of a check swing (which for me, is not a killer).

I agree with most of what you said, with this exception. I can't feel sorry for him as he's made himself part of the problem. I certainly don't blame him for all the miscues and dysfunction, but he could take simple steps (really, one extremely simple step) to ensure that he's not exacerbating the issue.

I dunno...He may be a decent enough guy, and I do believe his intentions are very likely in the right place. He's defensive, not accountable, and disorganized though...none of which is the fault of anyone but him.

Looks like Ron may have learned his lesson, though I can't say I like his defensive attitude:

RT @jean1991@Ronnie2K New MLB Insight today?->No longer giving advance notice. People are mad over something that didn't even exist last yr via Twitter

lol, ok Ron......seems kinda like a snobby tweet, no?

What? What is this guys problem?

Man, 2K needs to get their act together. This is not how you treat your user-base.

Completely agree.

And I'm pretty sure I remember reading at least one developer insight last year, about the franchise changes they made in 2K9....so yeah....unless I'm just imagining it?
