I'm not in the camp that has fond memories of MLB2K7. The only thing I remember from that game is that it played like glue--- just like every MLB game from 2K this generation.

What I'm big on is animation, and you all should be too. Animation is king in videogames, check out an old Aki game for reference. Player models need to move swiftly and fluidly when you're running down a ball in the outfield.

I am VERY weary that Gamespot experienced graphical bugs at this point in development. I do enjoy the clean look of the graphics, but framerate issues means this game is not worth my time (again).
