That is reason I pre-ordered my copy. Picked up mine after soccer practice. Gamestop kept thinking I was there for Soul Calibre, whatever!

Can anyone that's played it for awhile comment on whether it's possible to draw a few walks this yr?

I managed to walk during a Success Mode game.

I really have doubts about getting this game soon, I haven't found it at my gamestop yet, I'm going to call again and see if they got the shipments but many people have said they just get about 2-3 copies of it which sucks. My brother is getting back today so if he is going anywhere I'll probably go with him to check some stores.

Got it! I'm lucky I was a little persistent with the GameStop.

"You got MLB Power Pros '08 for PS2?"
*Hasn't checked the shelf or computer*
"Nope, we don't have it."
You sure?
*Sighs, checks shelf.*
"This?"
Um, no. That's last year's. '08?
*Sighs again, checks again.*
"This?"
Yeah, that's it! :wink:

I was able to pick mine up at a Gamestop yesterday (7/29) with no problem. They didn't get their shipment in that day until 11:30 or so that morning. I showed up and picked up the first copy (according to them) an hour or so later.

I'm new to the game and this community, but so far, the game is great! :mrgreen:

The gamestop in Tysons Corner mall only got 2 ps2 copies in. It looked like they had about 8-10 Wii copies in. I'm not sure any place is getting many ps2 copies in.

Anyone else annoyed that they took away the Schedule in season mode? Is there anyway to skip ahead without having to go day by day?

What???? That is stupid, why would they take away the schedule, but some people said it was way faster to sim a season so there has to be a way to skip ahead without going day by day.

Relax my friends. You can still view the schedule. It's mapped to a button in this year's game. It's listed on the bottom of the screen with the help options. For PS2 it's the square button.

Also, I'm confirming that the Bullpen option is only for Exhibition games and that really, really sucks!

I finally got it, it was the last copy at a gamestop about 15 minutes(driving) away from my house.

Thanks! But I am thouroughly dissapointed with a lot of the ratings with some players, I guess I'll have to start editing a lot tonight and I could probably easily finish them either late tonight or tomorrow, but I will be occupied with success mode. Felix Pie 7 speed??? If they got the ratings better this game would be flawless in my eyes.

I would say, try the game out before injecting players with the cream and the clear, despite the overall lowered stats, the players are, in relation to each other, correct for the most part from the end of the 2007 season.

Well, it's the people that are clearly underated, I'm not going and upping the big guys stats, I'm updating the rookies stats that are wrong because they either haven't had a lot of time in the bigs but have had a good year or the people who are just flat out underrated. But, I am playing the game, not just editing everyone.
