If you don't own a PS3, then MLB 2K11 is your only choice in baseball video games. It's not a bad baseball game, and has certainly made some improvements. Pitching and hitting are both fun, and the My Player mode has been expanded on to make it more accessible and engrossing. The glitches are fewer, but still noticeable, and the game does make some graphical improvements, though the game engine is looking tired. As cliché and tired as it sounds, IGN looks forward to seeing what 2K sports brings next year.

Like last year’s MLB 2k10, 2K11 has a date specific achievement involving this game. The achievement is called, “Mid-Summer Classic” and the description simply says, “Play the All-Star game in MLB Today.” Even though the All-Star game is not until tomorrow, 2K Sports is giving us three whole days to get this achievement out of the way. That’s right, you all have from the rest of today (July 11) until July 13th to knock this achievement out of the park.
Calvin Kemph states, "While there's nothing worse about this year's game than MLB 2K10, many of the improvements are trivial, so incremental that they add little meaningful value."
I play MLB2K every day because it's the only baseball game on the PC.
I play it with two monitors. The second monitor is showing the MLB TV streaming feed.
"2K Sports announced today that the next million dollar winner has been confirmed for the Major League Baseball® 2K11 Perfect Game Challenge. The winner, who will be revealed on Thursday, May 26, will take home $1 million and a lifetime’s worth of bragging rights for being the first person to pitch a verified perfect game in Major League Baseball 2K11." -- Wiiloveit.com (Official Press Release)
looks like it is runner up again to MLB the show
If you don't own a ps3? Buy it is easy and play the best baseball simulator out there.
You cant compare scores. A score is strictly for that game and that game alone.
If they were to compare games it wouldnt even be close. The Show destroys 2k11 in almost every aspect.
The Show is one of the best sports franchises out there for the past several years. I don't think it gets the recognition it deserves because it's a baseball game, but to baseball fans it is a fantastic game.
