Video Game Reviews of Major League Baseball 2K6
Customer Review: It's ok.
Summary: 2 Stars
Well, I've had this game for over a year. I've played hundreds of 9-inning games. It is fun to play but there are a ton of glitches. Players can run through one another and its easy to throw out a person from deep in the outfield.
The commentary is the worst part. It hardly ever matches the actual game play. One specific example comes to mind. I was playing a season game, in the bottom of the second inning. I was winning 2-1 and each team had 4 hits. After striking out a computer (AI) player for the second out in the inning, Jon Miller says "And look at that Joe, he struck him out and he is now 1 out from a no-hitter." As I said, each team had already had 4 hits.
Also, when you switch positions during a game, the statistics will almost always be given to the player who is no longer in the game. For example, say your shortstop gets injured after his first at bat in a game, and you move your 2nd baseman over to shortstop and bring in a new 2nd baseman. For the rest of the game, your injured shortstop will recieve all of the stats of the 2nd baseman that was moved to shortstop. Pretty wierd.
But, after saying all of that, I still play the game and will continue to do so.
