I bought one 2K sports game in the past 4-5 years, 2K11 for the PC. Again, I'm just happy they got their act together to put out a playable PC game. I'm happy with it; it serves as my baseball fix; and I just won't buy another game of theirs until they get their crap together as a game company. But for people who can't live without updated rosters, I can understand why they'd buy it. I don't see it as an issue.

I had a PS3 last year, but still went with the 2k12 and I never once regretted that decision. Sold my PS3 three weeks ago and will be picking up 2k13 tomorrow. 2k plays a fun game of baseball and in the end that's all I care about.

For the record, I have 2K12, I like it and plan to play it again this year. 2K13 appears a little better, but not enough for me to buy it. So while that is disappointing to me personally, I think I understand the business strategy. While there are a few of us here that really like the game, by all accounts we are in the vast minority. 2K probably feels that are already way too far behind, so rather than try to catch up, finish out this generation by cataring to the Million Dollar challenge crowd. I am guessing that they have the market research to determine how many copies that the promotion sells, and that they make money on it. But they probaby don't feel that there is a ton to gain by dumping alot of investment into development at this point.

I understand that people many think this is underhanded, but I don't. They haven't promoted any new features. The back of the box is the same, the achievements are the same. It has been pretty obvious from the start that this would be a light paint job. And for anyone who doesn't have a recent version of the game, then it is a solid title.

Grenke still wit a Brewers hat in his pic. My dirt hit was a double that ended up being an inside the park home run because Trumbo got glitch standing against the wall. I love 2k but the didn't even try. For the Dodgers fans that asked, they have the new dodger stadium seats but still have the old big screens.

Well this statement isn't totally correct as Harper had his own cyberface in 2k12 and it was a good one. As far as the others your likely right but Cespedes has a generic face in the show as well.

I like Kruk Phillips and Thorne in this game but wow this game just doesnt even belong on the same level as the show... I traded my xbox in for a ps3 just for the show sorry boys but after being totally disappointed year after year I finally did something about it... My name is Trevor and I am a survivor of 2k baseball letdown

Awesome so you are done posting in here. Cool!


To me the game looks way more polished.

This board needs a separate thread to direct all the show fanboy trolls to with their comments. So we can be like hey didn't you see the sticky? You can post your "I got the show and haven't looked back since. How does anyone play this crap" comments there.
