$1 Million 'Perfect Game' Contest Returns in MLB 2K11
by Alice O'Connor, Jan 07, 2011 7:00am PSTIf you accidentally tossed a meatball in the ninth in MLB 2K10, blowing your chances to win the $1 million 'perfect game' contest, you might be glad to hear that it's back.
If you fancy a cool millie, all you'll need to do is be the first person to pitch a perfect game in Major League Baseball 2K11--not letting a single opposing player touch base--starting from MLB Opening Day on April 11. Last year's winning game was pitched on the very first day by one Wade McGilberry, on only his fifth attempt.
The contest will only run on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, though the game by 2K Sports' studio Visual Concepts will also hit PC, PS2, PSP and Wii when it launches on March 8.
MLB 2K10 has also now been reduced to only $29.99, which 2K says is so "gamers can begin their pre-season workout" for the "intense competition" but we suspect might have more to do with clearing stock. Call us cynical, if you will.
As to what 2K11 will add to the baseball franchise, 2K has released a trailer trumpeting its major features--new player models, improved fielding and "so much more."
Comments
The very first batter in this video has a hitch in his swing. If they cant make a video without a screwed up animation, it's probably indicative of the same ol' same ol' we are used to from the 2K series. Overall the models were not that impressive either, and that seems to be what they are touting.
Maybe this is just a low quality video and deceptive of the final product.
I will wait for a Demo
