MLB 2K8 patch still not up to bat

PS3 News from N4G | Major League Baseball 2K8

PS3 - Major League Baseball 2K8 - MLB 2K8 patch still not up to bat

TVGB: "Last month 2K Sports, part of Take-Two, released MLB 2K8. Because Take-Two has exclusive third-party rights to make MLB games, every baseball gamer who has an Xbox 360 and some PS3 gamers (most will go for MLB 08: The Show) flocked to get this game, me being one of them. Yes, I did read the reviews and saw the comments about some bugs and glitches, but from what I read the good outweighed the bad. Besides, 2K Sports had said they would be releasing a patch to fix the issues. Being someone who has played PC games for many years now and downloading many patches I said to myself, "Thats ok, been there dealt with that.""

Major League Baseball 2K8 - What to expect

PS3 - Major League Baseball 2K8 - Major League Baseball 2K8 - What to expect

I had the opportunity to sit in on a conference call with Ben Brinkman, Producer of Major League Baseball 2K8. Ben was taking this time in order to give a deeper look into this year's installment of their baseball franchise straight from the horse's mouth. Now, while I understand the PlayStation 3 has almost been deemed MLB 08: The Show territory, I can also say with confidence that it probably wouldn't hurt to take a look at MLB 2K8 as well. Here are the reasons as to why that may be a smart move on your part in order to find the best baseball experience available to you.

PS3 - Major League Baseball 2K8 - MLB 2K8 Shows Off Big Head Mode

2K has sent over a few screenshots showing off the "Big Head" mode from MLB 2K8. These actually remind me a little of The BIGS in their look as they appear to fall more on the exaggerated side than going way overboard.

I'm always amused by modes such as this, sometimes it's a relief to not take the games so seriously and just have fun with them. Click the thumbnails below to view the images full size.

MLB 2K8 - Too much content to fit on 360 disc

PS3 News from N4G | Major League Baseball 2K8

PS3 - Major League Baseball 2K8 - MLB 2K8 - Too much content to fit on 360 disc

The March issue of Game Informer has made its way out and it includes an article on MLB 2K8 that mentions a few previously unknown details about the game.

Apparently the 360 version of the game is lacking the unlockable stadiums and Cool Base alternate uniforms that the PS3 version has. Because of that they will be made available on release day as free downloadable content. While this shouldn't bother those who have access to Xbox Live, those who don't will miss out on the content completely which is unfortunate.
