PSU writes: "Baseball is one of America's oldest and most favorite pastimes. However, its translation to the videogame market has been anything but apple pies and ice cream. Sadly, capturing the essence and enormous details of baseball in a game has resulted in some decidedly weak efforts (take, for instance, Major League Baseball 2K9 – a game that was embarrassingly riddled with flaws). As such, Baseball fans have good reason to be a bit cautious with Take Two's latest effort, MLB 2K10, but we can safely say it is a vast improvement from last year's installment. Sure, it still has some noticeable flaws, but overall this latest entry offers a neatly packed gaming experience that nearly every baseball fan will enjoy – for everyone else, it's more of a game you'll want to rent, rather than own."
MLB 2K10 Becomes OnLive’s 118th PlayPack Title
XMNR: With the American and National League Championship games still to go, 2K Sports ran a simulation to determine who will capture the conference championships and go on to win the World Series. The result is a prediction that, after dispatching the home town Atlanta Braves, the San Francisco Giants do likewise with the Philadelphia Phillies before going on to meet and defeat the New York Yankees in the World Series.
Andrew Reiner: "Each year, I simulate the season in any baseball game that hits the market. Outside of telling me that the Yankees have a shot at winning the World Series, most simulations are way off the mark. But in a season that doesn't make sense, how close do the games come? Let's take a look to see how accurate Major League Baseball 2K10 and MLB 10: The Show are in their simulations."
