Description
A continuation of 2K's baseball franchise, 2K8 features the obligatory roster updates along with some new features. It features the Swing Stick 2.0 which can produce many different hit varieties and a Total Pitch Control which utilizes the analog sticks for the PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360. The PSP has the same features, but uses the D-Pad while the Wii's controls are utilized by the Wii Remote and Nunchuk.

It also features many signature animations from the major players and features the commentator talents of Jon Miller and Joe Morgan.
