Major League Baseball 2K11 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this game to see exactly why everyone says it can't hold MLB the Show's jockstrap, and, well, let's just say after a couple hours of playing, I was down at my local Best Buy picking up MLB the Show 11 (see my review of that game here on Amazon). 2K11 isn't a bad game, let's just say that right off the top. But, the graphics are dated. They look a few years old. The player models are average at best. Gameplay is pretty good, analog controls work nicely. However, the animations are incomplete, I guess, for lack of a better word. I can't stand how the fielders do some weird jump before they throw the ball. Takes away the realism if you ask me. Running animations are done poorly too. Running from first to second, the runner will most times take a perfect 90 degree turn because the animations aren't properly spliced, so if you don't hit it at the right time, it's not a realistic turn, looks dumb. 2K Sports is getting there, slowly, because it's not all bad.
The commentary puts the Show to shame. The sounds of the ballpark are completely immersive and the fielding view when you hit the ball is fantastic. If you have an X Box, then this game is a good enough game to keep you from lamenting not having the Show. However, if you have a PS3 like me, there is no choice, but to get the Show. And I am not a fan boy for the Show either. I didn't get 2010's version because I knew it would be a roster update and really wasn't even going to get this year's version until I saw all the add-on's. So, this is an unbiased view of 2K11. I can't stand people who bash this game just so they can think they are tough. The Show is clearly the better game, but 2K11 is more than enjoyable enough to play on it's own right.
