MLB Power Pros 2008 Review

[BlackNGold]

I love the last PP and love this one too. The only baseball game better is MLB08 The Show for ps3.

That sticks out horribly. I think the stadiums actually look pretty good for what they are but on shots down the line it's weird seeing what looks like wallpaper over the stands. Obviously a minor complaint but every time I see it I cringe a little.

I would love to see a graphically updated sim version that cometes with MLB: The Show going forward. I think they have a good base to build off of with the play mechanics. I thought MLB 2K8 was pretty lackluster too. The Show is light years ahead of the main 2K game right now.

Konami already has that, it's called PYS.

I doubt 2K would ever approve of them making a MLB version of that though, unless they can their own MLB series.

I did an in-depth review of this game over on MLBPPworld.com with a lot of detailed comparisons between 2007 and 2008 if anyone is on the fence about whether to get this - http://www.mlbppworld.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=889

In the producers interview Rob Nelson said there have been talks about bringing the game to next gen, but nothing official. And, Konami would have to do it, because 2k just translates the game to english and brings the game to the US.
