MLB Baseball 2k7 - Official Thread


Recommended Posts

Yup, just went out for lunch to get it. Stopped at an EBGames and a Gamestop. Neither had it yet.

I'm depressed. :(

Being I work at Best Buy, I checked every store in the district and same thing. Each store has at least 50 copies on the way, though.

Well I picked up my copy today and I love it. Takes a while for me to get used to since I have not played a baseball game since n64 LMAO

I enjoy it also. It's a lot more polished than last year's iteration and some of the players are amazingly lifelike. Hideki Matsui looks strikingly realistic. The fielding, while better, is much harder as momentum seems to be a bit exaggerated.

My only real complaint is that I noticed slowdowns every now and then and thats concerns me because, while I haven't played on Live yet, last year's game slowed to a crawl online. Oh, and the over done blurring of the background can be a bit dumb looking at times.

Either way, I'd recommend it. It's a much higher challenge (on Pro I lost to Tampa Bay) and the presentation is very very nice.

No crashes at all for me. The slow downs actually seem to only occur when there's a lot of blurring going on at once (in one of those previously mentioned exaggerated moments). Hitting is so much harder, though. This year, it doesn't tell you if you were late or early, so it's harder to judge.

I haven't gotten the full game, but from playing the demo, I'm definitely impressed. I think the graphics are amazing (at least they look it on my 32" LCD TV), the controls are top notch and responsive, and the presentation is great. I'll be picking this up when I get the chance and the funds :yes:.

I'm a little sour I bought MLB 2k6 last year for 60 the day it came out then went down to like 30 in a month but I didn't really like it that much but home runs are awesome. I don't really like the mlb game on the 360. I perferred MVP > 2k.

I just finished playing the demo and man am I impressed! Looks beautiful, I think and the gameplay is very rich and seems very polished overall. I will definitely be picking this up eventually, if not at least renting it. :)

Well, I got the game on release day and have played 4 games. Oh yeah, this is the real deal. Finally! A contender to beat the almost perfect MVP 2005.

A MUST BUY!

...that said, it's still early. While I haven't noticed any major bugs, only time will tell...

I did hear that they rigged the rankings. How in the world are the Astros rated 23rd is beyond me.

Because they lost their pitching? It's not exactly like they were amazing last year either.

Oh, I understand that, but we aren't going to be terrible this year like 23rd.

You'll be a good NL team. That doesn't say much, though lol.

I really have problems adapting to the swing stick. I may just be stupid or something, but man, it's really annoying to me. I always end up bunting or completely missing timing/pitches. Ended up switching to classic mode. Then again, it's been a while since I've played a baseball game.

Make sure you're not pressing the button. You pull back to make your step (right before the pitcher releases the ball) and then have two choices: Let go of the stick for a level swing or push it up for an uppercut swing.

so every time I click "done" after my 13th game in the season, it freezes. I really don't want to start a new season

I got past it finally. I waited like 3 minutes and then made sure I didn't click done while it was trying to loading another background highlight. Seemed to do the trick. I only had to win the game 3 damn times.
