MLB 2K8 or MLB '08?

[kcxiv]

People say the Show is better, but its your basic hit the button and press the button for hitting and pitching. They say its a good game. I have never played it before. So i dont know. 2k games at least try to be innovated with pitching and batting and what not. This year. they have rewritten the ball engine. The fielding engine, the batting and pitching engine. Demo should be out within the next few days.

I will be buying MLB2k8 for sure.

Some of us like the simpleness of those games.. That is why the Wii makes me mad, I want to sit down and play a game.. Not ****ing learn techno moves to acomplish something..

I loved the original allstar baseball game on n64..

That and basewars.. Give me a new version of basewars...

I still enjoy Baseball Stars original 8 bit game.

I believe it was the first game to ever keep running stats.

Plus you could run multi-player leagues. I had it in the Army and everyone on my floor in the barracks was in it. We wore the piss out of that game. I even had to change the battery inside the game once.

Played the MLB08 the Show demo. The game seems pretty cool. I didnt care for the pitching. Its like hitting golf balls in video games. 2ksports kills them in graphics no doubt.

Going to play the demo some more, and whenver the 2k demo drops check it out and see what game i will purchase. I am curious to see the new swingstick 2.0 and the new pitching from the 2k game.

I too just played the demo for the show and it killed MLB from last year.

If the graphics are the same in 2k8 as 2k7, the show will destroy them.

2k7's graphics are way better then the Show. I dont even see a comparison really. The show runs alot smother though, but thats compared to last years game. No clue on this years game. Will find out in a few days though.

absolutely! Still play it from time to time in NES emulator.

I played that game day and night back in the day....for an NES game, it was quite complex....free agency...building up your players attributes...standings....full stats with top 10 in many categories....and that catchy music non-stop.

The best was when you could climb the outfield fence and rob someone of a HR.

Great game.
