Major League Baseball 2K12
Major League Baseball 2K12, also known as MLB 2K12, is an MLB-licensed baseball simulation and part of the MLB 2K series which began on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox. New features include more realistic pitching and batting interactions, a new throwing system, inclusion of real-life MLB logos, uniforms, and ballparks, and improvements to the AI and graphics.
Major League Baseball 2K12 received mixed reviews with an average score of 66%, praised for its graphics and overall improvements, though criticized for being a mere average baseball game, particularly in comparison to its rival MLB: The Show series.
Major League Baseball 2K12 was first released in March 2012, and includes 6 online trophies. Unfortunately, in January 2014, 2K announced they will not be renewing the series, and have since pulled all their MLB 2K titles offline. As a result, those 6 online trophies cannot be unlocked, marking the Platinum for this game Not Obtainable.
Since the the online servers were pulled in January 2014, the game's six online trophies - and therefore the Platinum trophy - have since become Not Obtainable. However, there are still 44 offline trophies that can be unlocked, so if you're still interested, then read on.
The first thing you'll want to do is create a user profile, as there are 10 profile-related trophies to obtain. These include the Home Sweet Home, Chicks Dig It, Almost There, Fanning The Flames, Set The Table, Productivity, Domination, Production, You Make Your Own Destiny, and the As Good As A Hit trophies. Check out the Major League Baseball 2K12 trophy guide links under our Links tab for more details on their requirements.
Before we start Franchise mode, it's a good idea to head into Rosters under Management and first select the Team 1 you wish to max out, then adjust the stats as low as they can go for Team 2. In Franchise mode, you'll need to play at least 20 games in order to unlock their corresponding trophies, then simulate the rest of the season. Then head into the playoffs and earn the MVP award to unlock the You're Special trophy. Winning the World Series will earn you The Champs trophy.
After that, head into My Player and create your player, where you'll be working on all the My Player related trophies, which include The Goal, Back To The Cage, Payback, Your Day, This Is Why I'm Here, The Call, A Job Well Done, 2-Peat, The Top, The Star, The Hall, and the What's Your Ring Size? trophies. Adjust the sliders if you wish to make things easier.
Finally, after all that, it's time to mop-up the remaining offline trophies. This will probably include getting to the top of the Best of the Best ladder in Home Run Derby mode, as well as any other you're still missing at this point. Again, check out the Major League Baseball 2K12 trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you're still missing and their requirements.
Unfortunately with the online servers closed, this is as far as we can go.
