One of the frequent comments when discussing 2K Sports’ MLB Front Office Manager has been that interest would be had only at a lower price point than the standard $60 game. There is legitimate concern as to whether a game of this nature can succeed on the consoles, especially after the relatively low sales and interest that NFL Head Coach was able to capture. Baseball fans though are more likely to be attracted to a game of this nature than football fans were to Head Coach.
The question as to how much the game will be appears to have been answered. Retailers are listing it at $39.99 for all platforms (PS3, 360, PC). The release, previously only stated as late January, officially appears to be Tuesday January 27th.
Does the lower price increase the likelihood of purchasing MLB FOM? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
