It's an upgrade for 2k11. That much is certain. One complaint is that the graphics aren't up to par with the games rival MLB The show. I did enjoy the new menus in comparison to 2k11's, which I thought were a tad bit confusing to navigate at first. The new batting style is favorable.

Perhaps my biggest peeve about this game is the face that My Player mode wasn't modified enough. It feels the exact same as last year, with a few graphical changes. Sure you can now define your player to fit your favorite role (Strikeout pitcher, ground ball pitcher, etc...), but it just isn't enough. Realistically created players would be submitted minor league offers from random teams and be able to choose the highest paying contract. I haven't gotten much past the first game in my player mode, so I will update when I have finished a season.

Dynasty mode is an exact replica as last season, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. I like that you get to start out in Spring Training,... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, BUT............., March 8, 2012
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Major League Baseball 2K12 (Video Game)
First off, I LOVED 2K11 and was really excited to get 2K12 for the updated rosters and because Justin Verlander is my favorite pitcher and the cover athlete. I cannot say I am disappointed in 2K12, but really, it's pretty much the same as 2K11 just with updated rosters and a few minor changes here and there. This is not a bad thing, I just wish a few more changes would have been made such as more minor league stadiums or classic ball parks would have been nice. My Player mode seems really no different from last year AT ALL, neither does Franchies Mode. MLB Living Season mode is cool but not really for me since you csn only play one game at a time (on the current day of the year).

3.0 out of 5 stars few changes overall same ol, March 8, 2012

This review is from: Major League Baseball 2K12 (Video Game)
Its bit of a dissappointment as an overall game. Most of the stuff is the same with very few changes. I dont know if its just me but seems like the graphics took a step back. Players running to a base after hit look like they are dying and struggling to get to their base with their head leaning back. Real players look somewhat the same but overall the graphics are not their strongest suit. Im a big My Player person this is probably the only reason I get this game but dissappointment in that category same as 2k11 only change is "roles" which are ok I guess but it doesnt make you feel like it was $60 dollars worth also theres not enough customization options just like 2k11 the weigh option might as well not be there because depending on what type of body you chose itll give you a default weight. I would of also liked if they would of put your contract worth, it just says signed to a 4 years but how much do I make who knows. Those are just a few things I found dissappointing on this...
