MLB 2K8 Update

"Brinkman also had a lot to say about a new Trading Card system. These cards are somewhat tied to Xbox Live Achievements, in that those who play a lot of the game are rewarded. Each team has about a dozen cards, and as you complete feats you will earn cards."

"n a sense, Brinkman is dead-on accurate – to really turn a meandering franchise around takes more than a single ten month development cycle – it takes years to get things right. Of course, gamers see a $60 price tag and want results. It’s really a no win situation for Brinkman and the 2K team because of the restraints specific to sports game development."
