    Will you be buying MLB 2K9?

    Now that we have seen gameplay video and have read about the improvements, changes, and franchise mode, who is buying it?

    I personally have bought every rendition of this game for several years, so I will be getting it. I'd imagine Ill be playing the Show a bit more, but it is nice to get a little different experience once in a while, so I'll probably pick this one up too.

    yes I'm going to buy it. If it has show-stopping issues like 2k8 that go unchecked again though I'll never buy another 2k product. This is literally the last chance for them with me.

    However, having said that it looks like this title might be just what the doctor ordered. Looks pretty good to be honest.

      Me to i have bought every 2k game since world series baseball for Genesis, last year i rented it and thank god i did. This year there are a couple of issues that i am still warry of and will read everyones impressions before i go out and buy it. But overall i am pleased what i see, but that only gets so far.

        I'm very interested in the PC version, but to be honest I need to play it first hand and wait out some PC reviews before I make the plunge. There are too many little things that are bugging me, so I need to make sure they don't dampen the overall experience before I buy.

        Mark me down as "undecided" for now.

            Yep, purchasing. The information from the past week sent the game from a likely buy to a must buy. I think the new takes VC (seems to) have on Presentation with RTA and customizable gameplay cameras have the potential for having as much impact as Signature Styles has had, where it's something that's desired in other sports games. Also like that they've simplified/improved the gameplay interface while retaining it's interactivity. And really looking forward to how they seem to be doing Practice mode. Game should be a lot of fun
            HBO's "The Wire" should rank as one of the top 10 shows EVER on tv - period

                  As much as I love baseball Ill have to pass on this one do to the show .
                  I do wish 2k luck and hope they build on this once proud series instead of new inventions and gimmics each year .
                  Nothing can beat great gameplay remember this 2k.

                    Where's the "Will rent first" poll option? I would guess a bunch of people would choose that one this year.

                      Those last few videos sealed it for me, pre-order is done.

                        Agreed their should definitely be a will rent option.

                          That would fall under the "I haven't decided yet". If you need to rent it first before you know whether or not your're going to buy it, then it makes sense that you haven't decided yet

                            Pre-ordered for 360, changed it to PC as soon as that version was announced...due to the last couple of versions, 2k hasn't really earned my 60 bucks for a baseball title.If this year's is good, 2k10 will be bought on 360
