    Re: 2K Sports Confirms They Are Done With Baseball

    I was kind of holding out hope for 2k14, but I didn't have much.

    I had fun with this series, and I still play 2k12, but I would have liked a new effort.

      I must say this is one of the saddest threads I've ever read in relation to gaming.

      Mismanagement and exclusives have practically killed off sports games

        Sad indeed.

        MLB 2K always got a bad rap, but I always really enjoyed both baseball games. I'm trying to make a comparison post, but both games had their pros and cons. I always said if you could mix the two and make a new baseball video game baby we'd have as close to the perfect game as you can get.

        The RBI news softens this a little for me. I'm just hoping that one of the games picks up 2k's pitching mechanics, as well as some of the franchise mode features.

          Well said. There are things one did better than the other.
          I've said it a thousand times, but despite 2K's flaws, I always had more fun with it compared to it's competition.

            Sad news. They should just change their name to 2ksport and drop the s..only NBA remains.
            EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

              Yeah...the passion for sports gaming for me is almost totally gone. On the plus side, I've rediscovered other game genres I've neglected for many years.

              Still love this board, though. It's really odd that I read/post more about sports gaming than I actually engage in it these days....

                You people B TRIPPIN! First we already knew 2k was no making a baseball game this year. Which makes since for 2k not to pay the fees to renew there license for 2014. Watch out for the sky

                    If it's not the rounded, bubble character models with the ability to move the ball after you pitch it, with 1986 rosters included, I'm pretty much not interestd....

                      I think MLB 2k was always considered a joke of a series but really wasn't that awful. With the power of OS roster, 2k12 was a pretty decent game. Still play it from time to time.

                        I've been plugging away at 2k12 for a little while now, and still really enjoy. I have it on 360 on which I play my franchise, and on my pc on which I play my player.

                        I've found a great way to play franchise (only meaningful September+ games). I can only do a couple innings a day, so it's a good way to not get bored with May and June baseball.

                          For those of us who do not own any other system except a 360, 2K Baseball was all we have. It's easy to point a finger and say, "Well, just go drop another half grand of $$$ and buy a new system so you can play The Show." Not so easily done...

                          2K Baseball has it's flaws, but with some work (like any other video game) it was a fun game to play, even had some solid simulation to it. I will miss it...

                            Agreed. it was our only option but if you gave it a chance, it was a pretty damn good option. I enjoy that game more than any other. Challenging pitching system, good hitting, post attribute edit fielding got much better.

                            Really enjoy 2k12. I find that as a whole, gamers are becoming more and more needy and NOTHING will ever be good enough. So I'm trying to turn a corner and find the good.

                            No one complained in RBI Baseball that the throws didn't reach first. Now, every pixel seems to end up on Youtube getting ripped.

                            I enjoyed it, will continue to and that is all I care.
