Re: Major League Baseball 2K8 Beta Impressions

Hate to be a pain, but Is Kosuke Fukudome's name available in the list of names when editing players? can you edit the name and see if the announcers still say the fake name? I know its a bit much, but I appreciate it.

This was a MAJOR problem in 2k7. If you edited a prospect and changed his name to his real name, the announcers would still say the fake one, even though you edited it! Made me very mad.

Re: Major League Baseball 2K8 Beta Impressions

right, I don't understand the point of changing the name if the announcers and P.A. don't say the correct name. I can understand Jon and Joe being divas and not wanting to put in the extra work (if that's what it is), but hell the p.a. guy should be forced to work overtime to get that stuff right.

Definitely not available in the list of names. As for editing the names, etc. for the announcing. I will have to check that out at another time. It's time for bed! Almost 3:00 AM! Ugh.

Its also the fact that you could change someones name to something as simple as Joe Mauer (a name they can obviously say), and Jon and Joe would still call him by his made up name. Its really just stupid.

I'd rather they just say the players number instead of the jacked up name.

Just realized I did not have a mini avatar. So I will ask my question again. With the new swing stick how easy is it to hit a sac fly when you need to. Thanks

Steve in your opinion is it a big step to a better baseball game this year. Is their that much of a difference from 2k7 and 2k8? Also since Jimmy Rollins won MVP last year. Go Phillies, what is his rating?
