LOL, CB I don't think it's even going to be possible, you think 2K really just want's to give anybody random Joe a Million dollars for pitching a perfect game?
I'm not trying to kill 2k with this, but I will match there million (LOL, if I had it) and bet that they have the game data written so that this never happens, to me it's just a ploy to get gamers to buy there game. Look at the track record, I don't believe that the MLB 2k Series has even made a million dollars selling this game in investments total on both system the last few years, and now there willing to pay a gamer a million dollars for pitching a perfect game. I'm sorry I bet it's rigged, but by no surprise they will hold a conference and most likely pay some guy like 10,000 and make it seem like they he really won , or just get some kid little brother from the 2k famliy to fake it just to show that it was possible.
In the end, IMO, it's we know our game is going to struggle, but hey just buy us anyway you have a chance to win a Million. Not cool, just make a great product and you will feel better about your game and company.
IN the end I think this is a Hoax. Sorry guys. Just my opinion.

If they have programming into prevent this from happening and it ever gets exposed, they would be liable for one helluva class action lawsuit for all out fraud.
Imagine if it was found out the the state lottery purposely chose a series of numbers as the winning numbers that were knowingly not selected on any ticket. This would be fraud.
I imagine they have taken out an insurance policy of some sort to pay the claim if it happens (most teams do this with the half court shots for a million $) or the (If any player hits a grand slam off the taco bell sign, everyone in america wins a free taco). I can't imagine any sponsor putting up the $1 Million since no name seems to be attached to it.
Again, I don't see this as a sign that this game is going to struggle and they need to sell copies. I see it more as a "this series has struggled in the past and we want to get people interested and thinking about 2K baseball again."
It's no different, IMO, than a crazy black friday doorbuster that gets hundreds of people lined up out side a stores door with the hopes of getting them to buy other stuff. Best Buy doesn't make these offers because there store sucks and they think people won't shop there...they do it to get more people to show up and shop there.
