Less Than Two Weeks Before Release, MLB 2K13 Gets a Trailer

Last month I cast doubt on the idea that MLB 2K13 would be noticeably different from MLB 2K12. This trailer from 2K Sports, released Thursday, shows me that I am wrong. MLB 2K13 will have the Houston Astros realigned to the American League, and they'll be wearing their new uniforms. So if you are a fan of the Houston Astros, whose 107 losses last year were the most of any major league team since the Houston Astros lost 106 games the year before, then this is your video game.

After that, go fish. I don't see much in this video that suggests the game will be that different from last year, and for sure the announced feature set and lack of marketing communicate the same thing. I still see the same animations, same flat/no-contrast lighting in shadows, same everything. All of this is replay camera, too, so keep that in mind.

The game still only has one screenshot released.
