Major League Baseball 2K10 Screenshots Batch #2 (VSN)

Re: Major League Baseball 2K10 Screenshots Batch #2 (VSN)

All I was pointing out was that the photo does not look like that in game. And 2K back with 2K6 and 7 were known on the web to doctor the photos.

I have the game right in front of me, popped it in just for arguments sake, and low and behold, does NOT look like the photo.

Just don't want people getting caught in this delusion of grandeur that the game was some holy grail graphically by the early 2K shots that do not represent the actual product in comparison to 2K10.

They do it enough on here with the MVP series, don't need it done with 2K7, the game was decent, but far from solid or anything close to viable. It had some better graphics going for it, but that is just about it. And it was my game of choice back in 07.

But people have to get defensive as if I put down their mommas, and others have to act hypocritical.

Anyhow, back on subject. Like others have said, the game looks good enough, it is how it plays that matters. And if not solid sim, then not worth the time IMO. I am jonesin for two games to play, one through the season and one in the off season on my PC gaming rig. I miss the days of 4-5 games to choose.

And there is no problems with slight criticism of photos of 2K10 like the equipment and bats. They are here to discuss. Outright bashing of them is one thing with silly nitpicks, but saying things they can improve upon is another. And should be warranted. Just how I see it.

I happen to know personally that he is rooting for 2k to be good. Like many of us, he wants to have 2 great baseball games. So no need to take cheap shots.

And some of us are rooting hard for it. I'm trying to be realistically optimistic, and I love the shots I've seen. At this point though, I think many of us are smart enough not to confuse cool looking trailers with anything that may entail the game itself. Though that would explain why most of 2K9's commercials of note just had the game-Lincecum and real Lincecum in them...

Can you guys quit the "us vs. them" mentality?

Everyone is discussing the game. If you don't want to talk about the topic, don't post. Stop taking shots at each other.

That photo has been known to be doctored. The game did not look that good with 2K7, I have my copy right here, and it does not look nearly that good.

I broke the 2k7 disk, but looked at some pure gameplay videos and the graphics look pretty good to me. Maybe the game would look different on my TV screen, but I don't have the opportunity to play it. Most people seem to think that the game looked pretty good, but it's fine that you don't. The picture may have been doctored a little, but I don't think if we will ever know for sure.

I never said the game didn't look good. So that is just putting words in the mouth.

I did say it did not match their official photos of the game. Which is well known to be touched up.

That is all. The game looked good at the time, just not that good. Thus I would hate for people to put 2K10 down based on comparisons to touched up photos. It is not a fair comparison and should be laid to rest IMO.

Agreed. I thought the player models and cloth movement (though overdone) was excellent and still hold up VERY favorably today. The faces are another story all together...lol. Some were very good, most were crap.

The stadiums were not great at all either and the crowd was just okay. I think people remember those very nice base models when they claim how great 2K7 looked. I suppose it comes down to what people place their focus on.

I wouldn't worry about it dude, most of us understand what you mean; the game looked good, great even, but it sure as heck didn't look like that photo, which was obviously doctored.
