As I understand it, Sony doesn't have an exclusive license. If I remember correct, MLB sold semi-exclusive rights to 2K, where only they could produce MLB games, with the exception of console manufacturers... or that only 2k could make multi platform games, I forget the exact language. The problem was 2k baseball was ass, and they gave up. As far as I know, other people can make baseball games, but nobody thinks it's worth the investment. That's why only the competitors are cheap arcade games. <cite>karmageddon28 posted [p:950165835] in WTF someon...
