This is semi old news it was posted in June in an IGN article. The show has all AAA and AA teams but not single A I dont think but big deal However your right about one thing, no game has all stadiums for every minor league team.
Hopefully this isnt Just 2K pulling our leg, I hope it doesnt end up being like 30 generic minor league stadiums, I'd be fine with it in reality but when they make a statement saying theyll have ALL stadiums thatd be kinda weak if they ended up not having them all

I think he said that there would be some of the minor league stadiums, not all 90 of them. That would take up a ton of disk space.

I can already here the comment by Brinkman if there was just generic minor league stadiums.
"We wanted to get them all in there, we tried real hard, but in the end it was something that we just couldnt fit in to the final version."

I see its all good really im just glad he didnt say we have 90 major league teams and minor league stadiums. u know a play on words that makes u think otherwise.
but you guys are right it would take up too much disc space I dont feel those stadiums are THAT important.

I really can care less about the minor league stadiums, unless you can play as a player who is making a comeback off the DL through the minors I guess thats the only way I would play. I see no point of the stadiums but the teams I guess are cool, if they have a full roster since last year you would have like 10 guys on the team. Also would be cool if they can pull some strings where they can have the minor league players names in it. But I don't think the minors have a union.

Nice addition, but I hope it has REAL minor league players otherwise this is useless for me.

yea .. actually i mite play w/ the Iowa Cubs.. because there is alot of players that are usually in the AAA thing in 2k7 that i know .. about all of them .. and that Tim Lincecum thing is hopefully cool .. because Josh Vitters is going to be the Cubs "Tim Lincecum"

With 162 games to play for the real teams, I will be passing on this feature...quite frankly, I think resources are being wasted...All you MVP guys who incessantly whine about 2k's gameplay are also the guys usually calling for minor teams(since MVP had that)...what I want to know is, will it be worth it if the gameplay does not step up a bit?
