I should have learned from my previous experience of NCAA Basketball 2K5 to avoid this company's games like the plague.  Chock full of 'innovative' controls, the timing mechanisms involved in basic gameplay frustrate every aspect of this game. The graphics are horrible.  Why not save money on the license and create your own generic players?  And did anyone bother to game-test this?  The cut-away scenes are horrible.  You will see your pitcher run off the mound to end an inning, the camera will zoom in, then zoom out again to show him standing on the mound to walk off.

Do you like to pitch?  The ball control works great...unless there is a runner on base which will almost always cause your pitcher to throw a wild pitch.  The is especially frustrating when you try to avoid it by throwing a meatball down the middle of the plate and it flies over the catcher's head.  I wish I was exaggerating, but in playing against my girlfriend 24 wild pitches led to 13 runs between the two of us.

Do you like to field?  You'll certainly enjoy your left fielder throwing out runners sidearm from the hip.  Or how about the your catcher jogging lazily to get a passed ball then running back to try and tag out a runner by himself?  What about trying to run to the ball with one player to find out control has been switched to another?

Or maybe you like hitting.  Personally, I find the analog stick control tedious.  You will miss on a lot of swings if you try to put any power behind it.  And god forbid you try to hit it in the outfield.  My favorite part is how the 1st base runners will almost always overrun 1st base instead of rounding the base.

I could care less about the Franchise or Manager features of this game.  I just want a game I can stick in and play easily.  I am sorry I didn't listen to my better judgement and go for the other MLB offering.  I would have gotten a free hat.  Now, I am out at least $15 bucks if I trade it in...but I would trade it in even if all I got in return was a Happy Meal toy.  This game is horrible.  Avoid it like the plague!

This game is RACIST. Shame on 2K sports and Spike Lee.

This game is just stupid. I can't believe it was a best seller last Christmas. It's messy and the whole game has a cheap feel to it.

Just an awful attempt at a baseball video game.  Horrible framerate, terrible graphics, boring gameplay, bad commentary - AVOID! 2K should lose their license to make MLB games after this mess. If you are a PS3 owner you have the option of getting possibly the best baseball game ever made, MLB 08 The Show.  There is NO reason to buy 2K8 instead of The Show.

Oh God where do I start.  Its just bad.  Just bad all around.  Character creation is selecting for a multiple choice format of premade only body parts.  The game play is just not fun or fulfilling.  The graphics look great so long as they don't move or pan the frame, otherwise it looks so bad.  The format for career mode is dismal.  The course selection is terrible.  I can't be much clearer in how bad this game is and how seriously of a mistake it would be for you to purchase it.  If you don't want to take the series of negative reviews to heart, look up professional reviews on sources such as IGN, etc.  IF you're still not convinced please go rent it first.  I have never been so burnt on a game so badly that it just disgusted me.  I know this all sounds melodramatic but for a frugal guy like myself, spending $60 of my hard earned money on something to fail so miserably just eats at me.  This was one time I didn't feel the need to research reviews and it cost me.  Please heed the warnings.

Half-baked.

Pros:
- Thankfully I got this $10 off due to being Prime.
- The game is easy to master and graphics are decent for a first PS4 run.

Cons:
- Work hard and win a big tournament like The Players?  Well congrats, no fanfare, no celebration, nothing.
- As many others have stated, the announcing is horrible.  They'll call the ball going into the water or rough only to end up 2 inches from the hole!!
- Very very limited customization. You get 12 or so choices for a face, no swing customization, limited outfits.
- No way to turn off celebrations.  Drain a birdie? Relish as your guy/gal does some stupid running-man chicken dance stupidity that you can't fast forward through.
- The system chooses your upgrades, not you.  They are stingy as well, 1 pt here or there for winning and playing 22 under!!
- Not many courses to play, gets old quick.

My advice, buy it used for $15 or wait for next year to see if they polish this turd.

Wanted to believe against hope that the game would have some semblance of fun to latch on to.  Boy, oh boy was I mistaken.  The controls are clunky; the fixed close-camera behind you is goofy when you are playing as the heros/villains (the first person mode is also terrible); the gameplay is slow; lastly, there is no sense of what makes the Battlefront series great (the single player campaign).  I saw all there was to see in the first five seconds of the game & it hadn't even finished loading.  Worst game of 2015/6.  It's just another garbage shooter.  Spend your money on seeing the movie fifty times more instead of wasting it here.  Move on.  There is no hope of anything good coming out of purchasing this hunk of junk.  For shame EA, for shame.

It was absolutely the worst element of any Uncharted game thus far.  The camera angles were disgusting, and the fight itself was way too fast-paced.  There was a trophy for not taking ANY damage whatsoever, and that is clearly impossible.  I'd love to know who was able to get that trophy because I tried for almost TWO HOURS, to no avail.  And it took another hour just to not get killed!  So a total of THREE hours just to beat the ending.  Pure garbage.  Leave it to Naughty Dog to royally screw up a game at the very end of it.  I'll never buy another Uncharted game ever again.  Deserves one star.

Condemned 2's developers clearly played Manhunt 1 on PC and PS2. This game woefully tries to mimic its mood and storyline but instead provides ugly, muddy graphics and a storyline chock full of expletives for shock value.

I couldn't get pass the first level. The entire game looks like a huge oil slick was dumped on everything. One can barely make out characters or details because of the ugly color scheme and detail given to everything. The story is cheap and stupid - rather than provide an intriguing storyline and main character, the player is given cuss words and a main character that's about as ugly and filthy as his language. The combo system is clunky, frustrating, and pointless. Hell, the main character should be able to curse everyone out and just walk off. That's how the fight system should've been. Choose the best cuss word and watch what happens.

It's a stupid game developed by stupid people that knew they could cash in easily with the use of strong language that (mostly kids, wink wink) would be shocked at. I'm sure they were pissed with the M+17 rating as this game clearly was not targeting an intelligent, 20yr old+ audience.

Condemned 2 is dog excrement.

I got this thinking it would be awesome like UFC Undisputed, Fight Night Champion and the like. Boy was I wrong. The fighting mechanics are boring and slow. Career mode sucks. Graphics are ugly for next-gen. Horrible game, basically unplayable. Should've went with something else. Please save yourself the money and frustration.. Do not buy this piece of crap. Thank you for reading.

I'll be brief since this game is NOT worth wasting much time on.
Short Version:
If you have ever played any other football game on any other platform this one will probably disappoint.
This is the worst football game ever (on any platform, going back to 1981)
This is the worst XBOX game that I've seen.
Graphics = D
worst of any XBOX football game, even last years madden for the PC was much better.  Truely disappointing.  For example the goal posts don't look like poles, but a stack of poorly aligned Lego blocks (very bad jaggies)
Sound = C+
so-so.  Nothing special, nothing horrible.  Very few choices and very redundent after 5 mins.
Features = F
Missing even simple things.  You can not review your roster, or set your starters.  There is no coach-mode, only arcade play.  Doesn't even pretend to be a sim.
Supposedly you can import players from this game into Madden 2003, but what would be the point when the players in this game do not have any names?  And don't seem to be based on actual players?
Gameplay = F
VERY VERY VERY BAD.  Play last years NFL Fever 2002 for an example of how an arcade football game should play, or last years Madden 2002 for the PC for an example of how a strategy football game should play (or if you want, try an oldie called Front Page Sports FootBall Pro for even a better example of a strategy football sim).

There are plenty of bad video game sequels. Remember "Simon's Quest", the sequel to the original "Castlevania", or "Zelda 2" for the NES?  Why is it that so many sequels are botched?  I'll get straight to the point: "Tooie" is a disappointment--a big one. All the fun gameplay from the first game has been replaced by stupid search-and defeat puzzles, and "Doom"-like mazes. Gosh, if I wanted to play "Doom", I'd go play it!  And caveat to those who get "motion sickness" from playing video games (I don't know how else to explain it).  I can't play "Banjo Tooie" for more than fifteen minutes without getting sick to my stomach--really, I'm not exaggerating!  The worst part is, is that I adore "Banjo Kazooie"; it's such a shame that they had to ruin the possibilities of what could of been a good sequel. Gosh, I waited two years for this?

This has to be the worst game I have ever played. Bad graphics,terrible sound and music and the camera flops around so much you have no idea which way you are headed. The plot [is bad] the bosses are [bad],its just another movie promo game hoping to squeeze even more cash out of the audience.
DON'T BUY THIS GAME!

Having to review this on Amazon.com not Amazon.co.uk BECAUSE THEY ARE REFUSING TO ACCEPT REVIEWS!  I think it's because this game is so awful they don't want to affect sales.

To be honest I would put up with the pathetic DRM had the game been any good but it isn't.  I'm playing on a 37" HD TV in 1920x1080 and it feels like I am always too close - it reminds me of a kids game and the awful RA3-like unit highlights just make it look worse.

I agree with everything most reviewers are stating so won't reiterate.  What gets me though is if a company is making a sequel then you expect the sequel to be broadley similar and true to the original - after all that is what people will primarily buy it for - they liked the original.  Really all EA had to do was follow C&C3, tart up the sound and graphics, add a few new unit powers and everyone would have been happy.  Instead they allowed the developers free reign to come up with a lemon.

Personally I didn't really like what EA LA did to RA3 but it was OK.  It was too garish for my liking.  But they've just decided they know whats best.  This could have been great - it's not even mediocre - even the background music is irritating.

And if this isn't bad enough - there is no LAN play.  I don't want to play ONLINE - I have actual friends.

Really - AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!

This game was the worst thing that could have ever been produced. I bought the game thinking it would be the best due to all the hype, and now im looking to get rid of it.  There are no season modes like in smackdown, that means no bakstage action or drama.  Dont listen to what the hype says, there are no backstage areans, no cage, ladder or table matchs, and you cannot load a song from to your hard drive to the game as an enterence song.  The attacking from behind while another person enters the ring also managed to flop, all you do is press a button and the computer does the attack for you.  there are ladders but you cant climb them, and there are tables but it is almost impossible to put your opponent through them.  despite popular belife you cannot see the blood on your opponent, and a fight cannot spill out into the crowd.  To sum it up all aspects of the game suck and special features that you are expecting either flop or are not true.  Dont Buy This Junk!!!!!!!

This review will be short and simple to follow. It is a BAD GAME for reasons including but not limited to:
1. Poor game play. I was told it was my after-market controller. After purchasing two different Xbox brand controllers, one wired and one wireless, I realized that it was just poor programming. There is no such thing as seamless movement in this game. I once pushed up on the left joystick and the character went down. Seriously, it is so bad that the character does not go in the direction you choose. Seems like UBI Soft should have just made a cartoon movie if they wanted to take away your ability to play the character.
2. The side missions, with the exception of the naval ones, provide little to no value to the gaming experience. There are literally ones that you have no clue what they even were about.
3. The price of the game. If you paid one penny, it would be a penny too much. This piece of garbage is not worth any currency.
