Summary
Essentially, MLB 2K8 does a lot of things right and enough things wrong. The game may be a huge improvement over last year’s title and give The Show a run for its money in the 2K9 installment, but it fails to clear the bar of respectable competition and will probably play second fiddle to MLB 08: The Show.
We like
- Great pitching mechanics
- Trading Card feature
- Precision Throw Control
We dislike
- Poor fluidity
- Some awkward visual effects
- Sometimes poor collision detection
