MLB 2K10 is a great game. The graphics are good, the only thing I don't like is that the classic mode of pitching is really hard to figure out. The options for quick play are great and the franchise mode is fun!
 A game filled with gliches May 15, 2010
zck7592
Comming off of MLB 2K8 I had high expectations for 2K9. These expectations were not met at all. 2K9 is much worse then 2K8.
It is filled with gliches. For example, throwing the ball to first base and the firstbaseman's foot randomly comes off the bag. Also, when the ball is hit to the outfield, and right before the outfielder catches the ball, the player moves away, causing him to drop the ball.
There was not a single game I played of MLB 2K9 that did not have at least one glich.
Could be better April 4, 2010

I bought MLB 2K9 so that I could get my baseball fix, and after a while I forgot about buying another game. This year, however, I plan on buying the newest version of MLB The Show. The things that turned me off from the 2K series is a lot of little things. For example, in dynasty mode, any prospect with a potential rating of 100 probably has a contract of $40 million so you can't develop them and still have room to sign other players. Another thing is that every batter has the same batting stance, and every pitcher has the same pitching style, making the game less realistic than it could be. Also, the faces of the picture for the player doesn't always match the face of the player in the game. An example of this is Brent Clevelen is obviously white in real life, but when you go into the game he is black. The game increasingly does this as the franchise goes into later years.
As far as gameplay is concerned, it has a few glitches like replaying the same play about 5 times before it lets you get back into the game. My game also freezes for about three seconds everytime an out is recorded which makes for jerky play when you're trying to turn a double play or tag up from third. The pitching meter could be made better so that the pitching is more realistic. I really enjoy the batting procedure of having to time your step and your swing. I think that this makes it a lot more realistic and makes the game more fun.
Overall, I guess the game was ok considering it was about $10 cheaper than MLB The Show, but this year I will be going with The Show.
