Calll me crazy...

Call me crazy but I think it's become cool to say that this game sucks.
I just read one too many, "Yeah, it sucks for all the reasons everyone else said and also cause it, like, you know, sucks. And, oh yeah, I'm personally offended by this game and how dare they put this on shelves?"

No offense, I just think it's become the topic to come on the site and be funny about. No worries, that's cool.

The truth hurts sometimes, even when it comes in spades.

People are pissed.

They should be.

Hmmm...interesting. I would say it's about as trendy as people starting threads here with attempts at quasi-profound statements about how people are complaining for the sake of complaining.

I would also venture a guess and say the people who are complaining about this game are doing so because they are disappointed with it. Not the most poetic of notions, I know, but truth isn't always poetic...lol.

Also, for those who may in fact be "following a trend," there's a perfectly good way for VC to ensure that trend is no longer, well...trendy.

I think I get what you mean here. I am not saying the game is "great" but, it is good. There are many things that need to be addressed but, it is a large improvement from last season. I don't understand why NCAA Basketball by EA which was not great but a good improvement over the previous game is generally praised for it's improvements but, when 2k's MLB game does the same it is slammed for the things that it has wrong. I actually enjoy the gameplay I hope that the bugs get fixed with patches and such but, I respect the improvements and hate to say it but next year should be even better. I own an xbox and this is my only choice this season and I think if we stop comparing the game to the show so much it wouldn't be as bad in people's minds.

I don't agree. I think it's the opposite. I've seen a lot of people defend this game even when it comes to the obvious issues and calling people trolls when they say something negative.

People say it's a bad game because -- and let's get real here -- 2K has now released four extremely sub-par baseball games on the 360. People are FED UP. Think about it: this game represents FOUR YEARS of next-gen video baseball "advancement." 2K9 would have been considered passable as a first effort on next-gen systems. But four years later gamers are expecting a quality effort, and this game is far from that. It has some nice things about it, but the simple reality is that, once again and as usual, 2K released a game that appears to be 4-5 months away from being finished.

yeah man,when you cant even watch pitches online,due to the off sinc bull crap,then this is bad,then u say to yourself since online is crap,i will play offline,but then the cpu swings at everything in the strike zone,and this pisses you off,so then u say"oh i have an idea,I will just play in leagues online,this way i can edit my batting controls,and revert them back to classic controls,this way i can check my swing online,so im not swinging at bulll crap pitches because i have to",but they dont even let u change controls in leagues,so you stuck ethier planning on watching pitches,or swinging and just hopeing for a little contct!!!!!!!they need to fix this game bad,just let me hit classic online,so i can at least check swing,and fix the cpu aggresiveness,and this game becomes "pretty good",otherwise it is not!

I've said it before and I'll probably say it again: the information you can find on this website is second to none, but most of the time you have to fight through a lot of random complaints about just about every aspect of a game to find it.
