Anthony, the thing about "$15 downloadable title" means sacrifices have to be made. Modes like MLB Life, Shop, Arrange, League, and maybe Practice would need to be cut. Either that, or you get a total half-assed product that has all the modes.

This is all speculative of course, seeing as the odds are extremely slim that we get everything


I know, but I think it's time we ask 2K Sports again. Just to check. Whether it becomes a $15 downloadable title or a full-fledged console game depends on whether they want to make it again in the first place.

I severely doubt that 2K would even read the e-mails if any of us sent one. Not even just to check. Those tightwads say one thing, but do nothing.

Then can anybody think of a gaming company that may be interested?

Your other choice would be EA Sports but they'd probably be focused on making a new MVP Baseball game since they got the baseball license.

Yeah, you're probably right.

But still, we can at least try 2K Sports. We need to pick a format. If we want a $15 download, which modes do we want and for what consoles? I would say Exhibition, Success, and Season are the most important, followed by Arrange and MLB Life. As for systems, I would say PS3 and either Wii or WiiU, with a possibility of PS Vita or 3DS.

Yeah. We need to get a group together and plan something. Get a plan out there that's good enough for some company (2K Sports, EA Sports, Nintendo?) to consider.

If I were to start a topic, should I start it in Suggestion Box?

Anthony, I love your enthusiasm about this, but you have to be honest with yourself. You have (at most) 40 people who are willing to support this very niche title. To put this in perspective, PSASBR had thousands of people asking to have Crash and Spyro put in as DLC (not even asking for a game, just some DLC) and nothing happened. The thing is, the game won't sell. That's why I'm sure it got discontinued in the first place. Cartoon-y sports games just aren't profitable

I second these statements. We do appreciate the enthusiasm, but it just won't work. Sorry 'bout that. :frowny:

It's okay, although it would be cool to get a new one.

As would we. But you have to realize, there's no chance. Like cooldude said, the best chance is if someone here gets rich and hires people to make it. Or, I guess if someone here got famous, and told their fans to ask for it, that would work too. But both of these scenarios aren't happening, at least for the time being.

Maybe if there was a game developer out there who wanted to make it they could do a Kickstarter but otherwise we're SOL.

I still think the game would have sold much better if there was any sort of advertising budget used for it. I've only ever seen one advertisement at all anywhere, and it was just a tiny rare banner on a site that gave literally no information on the game.

I mean, it's incredibly rare for games to make it into mainstream popularity if they aren't advertised regularly through several different mediums.

But if you're in charge of Take Two, and your goal is to make money, do you advertise 2Kwhatever, or Power Pros?
