I don't believe that either for the exact reasons you posted. I hope it is fixed though because I love using the new controls and would hate to eschew that just to be able to play an online game.

Many good issues stated throughout this thread that should be addressed by 2K, but the main bug I would like to see fixed is the complete and utter lack of pitcher injuries when simming games in Franchise mode. I have simmed through multiple seasons and NOT ONCE have I seen a pitcher at any level of my club go down with any sort of injury. This is a huge issue and kills realism for me.

This is the main issue I would like to see addressed. Thanks.

I was about to post that....they also need to fix the lack of k' there is when simming and the rained out games, everytime a game get canceled is like you pressed the restart gbutton instead of a rescheaduled game

MLB 2K8 has driven me off of 2K sports games completely; I have wasted too much time and money with their titles. Color me a Sony and EA sportsgamer going forward.

you should go play madden 08 for the ps3..... that will show you that its not just 2k... not tryin to bust your balls, but EA put out a PISS POOR title with that one. now the show on the other hand, yeah they got that one right..

Thanks for the links but I don't have a router and really don't want to buy one just for this. Especially when the download times will be pathetically slow for the patches.

If there is no other way to get the patches/downloads...I guess I'll have to wait until my apartment gets rebuilt (burned down in a fire). Should be about 6-8 months.

I hate to say it, but in May I'm gettin' my PS3 and The Show. Trading in 2k8. I tried really hard to enjoy it. There's just too much freezing, frame rate issues, and the interface is horribly user unfriendly.

Thank you?

Why do people keep saying there will be no patch for the ps3.
