Along with a host of other new features, Major League Baseball 2K8 includes
added Signature Style animations such as new and improved player walk-ups,
batting stances, home run celebrations, steps-ins and step-outs, and more to
make each unique player true to life. For competitive players, Major League
Baseball 2K8 allows fans to have fun while competing against each other online,
testing their skills in a single game, tournament or full league season against
more than one million elite online gamers in the 2K community. New online
lobbies have been added to help users match up with others who want to play with
a similar style, including a “Strikes Only” lobby, where pitchers can only throw
in the strike zone, and lobbies where players use the advanced analog stick
controls or the controls from previous iterations of the Major League Baseball
2K series.
