In everything I've read about this year's game so far, the overriding sentiment seems to be that it's still not a great game, but is a vast improvement over last year's steaming pile of feces. I'm glad that 2K improved the game from last year, but is a huge improvement over a disaster, which still amounts to an overall so-so game (which seems better to us than it really is because it's being compared to 2K9), really worth paying $60 for? I feel like every year we're saying, "Well, it's just okay this year, but I bet next year is gonna be AWESOME!" I just wonder how many years in a row we have to be disappointed in the overall product before we stop paying full retail for 2K's half-baked efforts.

And, lest anybody accuses me of being a "The Show" fanboy, I don't own a PS3 and have never played Sony's baseball game. I only have a 360, and 2K is my only hope for good baseball.
