> April 15, 2008 - 2K Sports, in partnership with Deep Fried
> Entertainment, today announced that Major League Baseball 2K8 Fantasy
> All-Stars
> available on retail store shelves. Available exclusively for Nintendo
> DS(tm), Major League Baseball 2K8 Fantasy All-Stars will put fans in
> touch with the action like never before while offering a wildly fun and
> interactive gameplay experience featuring starting lineups from all 30
> Major League Baseball clubs, a variety of exhibition and tournament
> modes, All-Star training mini-games, along with fantasy-themed baseball
> stadiums.
>
> Utilizing the functionality of the Nintendo DS touch screen, Major
> League Baseball 2K8 Fantasy All-Stars provides fans the unique
> opportunity to control the power and technique of their swings and the
> speed and accuracy of their pitch by performing specific gestures and
> intuitive usage of the stylus. Fielding, baserunning and other controls
> will also utilize the DS touch screen, as players drag and trace lines
> to execute these specific baseball actions.
>
> Adding to the addictive gameplay experience, players will also have the
> ability to obtain special "power ups" to complete incredible batting,
> pitching, and fielding performances. Players can force their opponents
> to chase after the "chicken ball" that runs away from fielders once it's
> on the ground, or confuse them with a "crazy ball" that takes an
> unpredictable flight path. Pitchers can throw amazing new pitches such
> as a "super splitter" that splits the ball into two pieces to confuse
> the batter or a "fireball" that screams over the plate at rocket speeds
> while engulfed in flames. Fielders can join in the power up fun with the
> "brick wall" that causes a wall to instantly rise out of the ground to
> stop the ball in its tracks or the "super jump" that allows them to jump
> incredibly high toward the ball in flight.
>
