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.

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

Re: 2K Sports Confirms They Are Done With Baseball

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.

R.I.P.

Re: 2K Sports Confirms They Are Done With Baseball

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

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