And no, I won't give them a break. I plan on putting down $60 of my hard earned money to play a baseball video game that can't keep stats as accurately as I could with pen and paper when I was 5 years old. Now I might put that $60 down on 2k8, depending on how well of a game it plays.

ok. so you're 6, now.

If it's simply a stat overlay problem, it's not a huge deal. It will be very harmful if it affects in season stats. I hope someone can clear this one up. Also, the idea to list bugs in one place (front page) is a good idea. I think we should nail them all down so that they're clear to the SCEA guys. Hopefully patches follow.

I hate to beat this horse dead....but I, too, as well as three friends standing next to me are very anxious to find this out.

I will personally test this when I recieve the game which will most likely be Tuesday. Can someone beat me to it?

Good god, give it a rest. You made your point posts ago. If it'll make you stop, I'll give you the $60 for the game, sheesh.

Alright, time to get this thread back on topic (yes, I got sucked in, too).

While I understand the complexity of the process I disagree that expecting stats to be accurate is expecting to much. Not when the trailers etc are all touting the realism and accuracy of the game. Then put out a disclaimer that it is all pretty realistic, except for the stats. Now if this is just an overlay problem, which has been stated, then ,well maybe not that big a deal. But one of the touted features was the box scores being saved for the whole season and even if it is an overlay problem that hurts that feature.

Nobody likes bugs. We're all trying to identify them, find out how far they go, and with any luck have them eradicated with a patch. We all have certain levels of expectations, but they're really not for this thread.

Okay, I'm jonesing for this game, and I've read through the whole thread with one major question left unanswered (unless I've missed something, and it's been a long week, so that's possible): how frequent is the winning pitcher issue occurring, and is it reflected in season stats during franchise mode? If someone who has played through the rotation a couple of times could answer these questions concretely, I would be grateful.
