Take Two/Sega finalized that contract (starts in '06). It's weird because it still allows first-party publishers to publish MLB baseball games on their own consoles... seems to mostly be a move against EA. Is this good for baseball games? No, of course not. No monopoly is good. It'd have been even worse if old developers of great baseball games like 3D0, Acclaim, and Accolade still existed, but even so... sure, losing EA's MVP series is no tragedy, but what about baseball management sims on PC?
