Major League Baseball 2K12 Review (360/PS3)

[mcmax3000]

I feel like I'm the only person that can't stand 2K's analog pitching. I originally thought I didn't like it because I wasn't very good with it but throughout the years of playing either the full game or the demo for 2K's games, I've gotten to the point where I'm as good with it as I am at pitching in any other game & I'm still not a fan.

I get what it's trying to do and I think it does it well enough but I just don't find it to be an enjoyable way to pitch.

I decided to pick up The Show again this year & not 2K12 but I will say, if I didn't have a PS3, I probably would've still gotten a baseball game this year because I did find the 2K12 demo to be pretty enjoyable. I especially found that hitting was much better for me personally as I found it much easier to read pitches & hold up on balls instead of swinging at everything like I find myself doing in The Show.

if you have a PS3 don't even bother with this game. But for 360 users, it's not a bad choice. It could be worse, it could be mlb 2k6-9

Best review I've read. I'm curious, what hitting view do you use? I think the default is actually quite good.

He uses the best hitting view in the world. It's identical to The Show 12's batting camera.

Batter 1
Zoom 2
Height 6

I hate the 2k12's default batting view too. Makes everything look out of wack and the outfield stands look like they're a mile away.

vince. . if u thinking of getting the ps3 ver goodluck.....not even close to the 360 ver.

Do you have both retail copies or are you just saying?
Not saying the ps3 version isn't inferior, it quite possibly is, but wondering if thats from first hand knowledge.

Did the ps3 version get the patch yet?
Never mind i see it did get the patch fixing the framerate issue.

I like batter2 (default) because I can see my runners on 1B and 3B.
