And buy this game. This game has good graphics and I am using a 6850 and AMD 945 @ 3.4ghz. Runs smooth and no lag. Takes a bit getting used to at first (i.e.batting and pitching), but I am finding myself enjoying this game immensely. I have not had much time with it so far, but I cant see any show stopping bugs after 10 hours of play.
For the casual baseball fan that wants to play some good baseball on his PC. This is the game to get. I appreciate the fact that 2K is still supporting the PC. And likewise I will help support them.
Every year people complain that we dont get updates as fast as the console counterparts. But just be happy that actually care enough to release a version.
2K. I know you guys pour alot of money into marketing. But you should really market more toward the 28-35 crowd. We grew up with all the game machines and we are now the likely audience to actually buy the game.
To sum it up. This game is alot of fun and I cant wait for Baseball to start! Go A’s!

This review is from: Major League Baseball 2K11 (DVD-ROM)
Baseball games are about the most fun a red-blooded american boy can have. I have owned alot of baseball games going back to the Tony Larusa set of games that I played on my 386SX PC. I look for playablity in a game. I’ve seen games that look pretty but don’t play very well. MLB 2K11 is not one of those games. It may not be the absolute best looking game I’ve seen to date, but it plays very well and has a lot of in-game featuress that make it a very cool baseball game.
One of those features is that the announcers during some point in the game will come up with stats on your player (I create players and insert them into my favorte team)or other players around the league that make it more interesting especially when you see one of your players listed at the top or near the top of the hitting category that the announcers are discussing. The game is very scalable according to your degree of experience. You can make it as easy as you like or as hard as you like. Other great features are instant replay and player creation.
I am more of a person that likes to play the games instead of managing or simming however I do sim games to shorten season and make any adjustments to the team along the way. Playing about every 5th game makes for a long enough season. This game has all these capabilities. You can manage, sim or play any given game that is on your schedule.
The reason for 4 overall stars instead of 5 is that the graphics are NOT the best out there and some of the player movements are a bit unnatural. The player stats area is a bit strange as well since that 1 graph is used show all the stats. You have to cursor over to the subject heading and hit the sort button to see who is the best or worst player for that category. Players that don’t have enough games to qualify show up which distorts the stats. All categories should be a on a seperate page where the unqualified players are automatically filtered out or at least have the opton to filter them out.
This is a great game and it is fun to play.
