2K Sports and Konami Swing into Action with MLB Power Pros 2008
Critically acclaimed baseball franchise gets ready for another season of great family fun
Description
With over ten different exciting game modes including the traditional
Practice, Exhibition, League and Home Run Challenge modes, MLB Power Pros 2008
will bring fans closer to the action than ever before. Gamers also get the
opportunity to act as general manager and control the destiny of their own
franchise in Season mode, or engage in entertaining role-playing story modes
such as Success and MLB® Life modes. As general manager, gamers can trade, sign
free agents, coordinate practice schedules, purchase new equipment, call up and
send down players from the Minor Leagues™, along with other management options
to bring in fans, win playoff games and eventually, earn the title of World
Series™ champion.
In Success mode, fans can participate in a story-based career of rising players
in the Double-A Minor League system trying to improve their baseball skills and
make an impression on baseball scouts while also having to balance various
situations in their personal lives. Through a variety of amusing training and
game challenges, players who complete Success mode will also be able to take
their created player files into MLB Life as well, or also play as either an
existing Major League Baseball® player in Dream Mode, or start as a rookie in
Major League Career mode. As a new feature in MLB Power Pros 2008, MLB Life is
another story-based mode that will allow fans the possibility to simulate the
exciting life and experience of being a Major League Baseball player over the
course of a 20-year career. While continuing to play in games through the
regular baseball season, players will also participate in a number of realistic
situations such as signing contracts, purchasing houses and cars, making
charitable donations, building up relationships with friends and teammates,
picking up hobbies and much more.
