20+ years of video game competition experience - that is how I know that only live events have integrity. It's frustrating to sit on the sidelines while companies like 2K Sports repeat the same mistakes over and over and over. -
There's an element of this nobody has mentioned. There is no way to verify identity in an online tournament. When part of the prize is a trip, especially when that trip includes a shot at big money, people might play for other people.
ID's and passwords verify an account, not a person holding a controller.Last edited by Sportsflibs; 05-22-2012, 01:27 PM.Comment

They should not have the contest for 1 million dollers, when they could use that money for developing games. I'm happy for the people that got their lives changed, but 2k stopped producing baseball now.NBA:ATLANTA HAWKS

Thanks to all that helped with the Baltimore Orioles roster, and to N51_rob for making me an OS premium member.

Maybe with the extra money they could have done better with cyberfaces, and allowed for full player editing at least.GT: Herkyalert

I totally agree. The contest was cool at first but considering the fact that 2K is probably done with baseball games, it's pretty silly they did these contests.

Well haven't you played sports in your life, weather it be high school college, or whatever level it may be? What's some of the first things the coaches teach you? It's where those grey areas are in the rules and how to exploit them to your advantage over your competitor. It's not cheating it's exploiting the rules to your advantage.Not changing sig until Cards win next WS. Started 2012Comment

Are you guys f'n kidding me or you all are just all rich with no cares in the world already???
If all I have to do for a million dollars is switch a lineup IN A DAMN V-I-D-E-O G-A-M-E contest (might I add the rules don't say can't do this) then I'll do it EVERYTIME! I almost cant even believe this is a discussion amongst people who arent millionaires and have familes to take care.
"Spirit of an UNWRITTEN video game rule" vs. being awared $1,000,000 (if you just picked option one then ur the person Im laughing at as I write this)
WOW.Last edited by Rob Bec; 07-06-2012, 05:07 PM.Comment

EDIT: Just noticed you got another thread closed after you were warned about calling people babies. Seems like I was correct.Last edited by Yeats; 07-06-2012, 09:04 AM.Comment

Anyways, I feel like I just added perspective to the conversation by saying:
Not breaking an UNWRITTEN VIDEO GAME RULE vs. Being awarded $1,000,000 doesnt take one second of thought from me on which one I'm going with. And it shouldn't take any thought from any non multi-millionaire with a family to feed.
