Picked up the game today, yay for insanely time sensitive sports achievements! Actually, given that 2K already shut down a lot of the online services for their 2K9 titles, it is likely that this will be the ONLY chance at the achievement.Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 03:59 PM
haha i hate it when developers do this its annoying to the people who can't play it tomorrow (im not one of them, as for i dont have the game. but EA did this in the past and i think they still are?)Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 04:08 PM
Haha, "or perhaps miss out until next year." Yeah, if the servers are still open next year :P xDMonday, July 12, 2010 @ 04:09 PM
Just decided on my next 1 day rentalMonday, July 12, 2010 @ 04:38 PM
Hopefully these kind of achievements are a dying breed. I had to rent brothers in arm: Hells highaway just to get that achievement because i traded it in. I'm not doin that again.Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 04:49 PM
wherd, i am pumped but be for anything i gotta rent it before time runs out..Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 05:10 PM

Been waiting a many moon for thisMonday, July 12, 2010 @ 05:39 PM
why do companys like EA and 2K do these time sensetive achievements?Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 07:12 PM
@11 So that people buy the game at or near full retail price instead of waiting a few months and getting it at a discounted price. Also it keeps people buying the NEW iteration of their sports games...Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 09:31 PM
damn i'm gonna have to pick this game up tomorrow i wanted to get it but just never didMonday, July 12, 2010 @ 09:43 PM
WOW, quite the tip ;) quite the tip...indeed... (...)Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 09:58 PM
@12... it's like $30-40 now lol... depending where you buy it.Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 10:26 PM
begins at 5 and im getting home at 7:30, fuck EA! oh and by the way you have to play all 9 innings.Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 10:33 PM
@16....EA? where is EA in any of this? BOO-YAH!!!!Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 10:44 PM
@17 EA made the game?Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 10:45 PM
@17 Wait no, you're right. Maybe it's because EA closed the Madden '07 servers? My bad...Monday, July 12, 2010 @ 10:49 PM
I don't have the game so I don't careMonday, July 12, 2010 @ 11:17 PM
#16- You can set your innings to three, you DO NOT need to play nine. And you have the whole all-star break to play...Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 12:20 AM
@18 - No, 2K did.Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 12:21 AM
wow, that was kinda easy for 40g. thanks!Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 01:46 AM
Go figure my game keeps freezing up on me at the title screen as soon as I decide I'm gonna get this achievement. Dang thing worked just fine 24 hours ago!Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 02:45 AM
You can do this anyday while being offline and changing the date... Lol @ everyone who waited xDTuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 04:48 AM
I had this game date marked on my calendar for months. Was afraid I would miss out with recent storms that would KO electricty & Internet recently but I did get the 40 gs an hr ago. Now if only I could get the wall climb cheevo I'll have 1000/1000.Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 05:14 AM
@17 really? thats odd.....thought 2K!!!!! was making the game the past 5 years. boy do you people know anything!?!?!Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 05:15 AM
@18, just read that comment. haha. nayways. i got it lastnight, won as AL 9-3. but.....for some reason i played as last years team on not this years' all star team.Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 06:46 AM
@24 mine just started doin that too. took the game from my bros room and now it wont get past the title screenTuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 11:16 AM
@29 Now the 2K server is unavailable. Maybe they had entirely too many people trying to get hold of the achievement and weren't prepared for the extra traffic? Sucks...Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 11:25 AM
I don't play a lot of sports games, but WHY do developers put these in games?!?! ARGH!!!!Tuesday, July 13, 2010 @ 01:13 PM
I hope there is more than a days notice for the Brothers in Arms: HH achievement in September so I can borrow the game off my friend again.Friday, August 20, 2010 @ 03:54 PM
@32 i was just thinking the same thing

In this year's iteration of 2K Sports' yearly baseball game, they included a time-sensitive achievement, only attainable during the All-Star Game of the actual MLB season. Well, that time is now! The actual game is not until tomorrow, but reports are in that the achievement is already unlocking with the start of the break today (and tonight's Home Run Derby), most likely pointing to an allowance for the entire All-Star Break. To be safe, unlock it before the end of the game tomorrow or perhaps miss out until next year.
