To start with the timing of the controls make it very frustrating.  Xbox 360 games are supposed to be known for their great control system and every other 360 game that I've played does.  You cannot get used to these controls!  I bought another controller to see if it would make a difference; No dice!  MLB 2k6 for GameCube has very responsive controls; ----Nintendo!----  Nintendo has beaten Microsoft by a whole year!  The worst part is the graphics are hardly better than MLB 2k8 for the wii ----Nintendo again!---- The gameplay too!  MLB 2k really screwed up this year.
Now, writing this in 2014, 2k is at the end of their contract for making MLB games.  So we can sit back and play the few good ones they made regardless of the console.  This is not one of them.
