    Re: 2K Sports Confirms They Are Done With Baseball

    I will miss the announcing team of MLB 2K, stats, and pitch/hit analyzers. Even though there were many flaws, there was a lot more right with the game. I hope 2K sells this to some company that can make it what it deserves to be.

      2K12 on PC with mods was a pretty good experience imo.

        I will never understand the direction this game took. They had the one version that looked absolutely beautiful and the framers yes suffered. They put in the "Meat Ball", which was horrible. However, they nailed the analog pitching. I love the "fun factor" of the game. I just always fueled they were being pulled into many directions during development.

        Sad to see them go.

        I would love to see a rebirth of:

        1.) High Heat
        2.) All-Star baseball
        3.) my favourite franchise MVP.

        I know it won't happen, but I would love for them to make any of these titles.
        I am the lesson after the fall.

          What a sad and barren wasteland sports gaming has become. Only a paltry selection left to choose from. Not good.

              This is the most depressing news I've heard in a long time.

              I know its reputation dropped off the table tremendously here, but I liked the game. I didn't like the hitting system, camera options, or cheesy effects here or there, but I personally thought the game was awesome and the other option was a great thing, especially for Xbox owners.

              Not only that, but think back at the developer diaries. There was some serious heart and soul poured into this game by some people, minus some misguided direction overall by the higher-ups. I'm just going to miss it in general. I loved looking forward to news on these games, and I do think that next-gen could have helped with a turnaround.

              Oh well. If there is any chance though that this means they can allocate resources to another NFL, NHL, or CH game someday again, that would be the only good news that comes out of this. Otherwise, as "expected" as this may have appeared to most, I just don't like it.

                With no football, hockey, boxing and now baseball game, can they officially change their name to 2KSport?

                  NBA2K more appropriate

                    Well there is still wrestling if that is classified as a sport.

                      Saw the news about the cancellation last night. Sad indeed. I really enjoyed 2k12, alot. The community was amazing in improving and updating the game. It did play a great game of baseball.

                      Just got to thinking of my game collections........NHL 2k, 2k2, 2k3, 2k4, 2k5, 2k6, 2k7, 2k8, 2k9, 2k10, 2k11........World Series 2k through 2k12 (no 2k8), NFL 2k, through 2k5 and All Pro 2k8.

                      Now, I have nothing to choose from. My 3 major sports I play from the company I liked the gameplay most from has no options. Ugh. Now what?

                        This is disappointing. The MLB2k games were actually pretty solid. Sure, they weren't the Show, but for what it was, it was a darn good baseball game. Yeah, there was almost no improvement from 12 to 13, but the team had little to no time to work on 13. I would have liked to see maybe a year off for them, then bring it back on Next-Gen, almost like Live.

                        I guess this opens the door for 2k to bring back an old franchise, like NFL, NHL, or CH, or even begin to push WWE2k further for Next-Gen, but even as a Playstation guy, this sucks.

                        Hopefully EA restores MVP Baseball. Loved those games growing up.

                              2k sport, is so true, they really need to make another football game, don't care if it's a fake league, but they need more sports games for a video game sports company!!!!
