Take-Two s 2K Sports division is launching a major giveaway for Major League Baseball 2K10. As reported in CNBC, the publisher is launching a contest giving the first person who pitches a perfect game in the videogame a $1 million lump sum prize. The contest starts when the game releases on March 2 and runs for 60 days. Players are qualified when they start the game in default setting. Once they pitch a perfect game a game where no opposing player reaches base they receive a code that 2K Sports will use in determining if it qualifies them as being the first. The game also has to be recorded so it can be verified by official videogame scorekeeper Twin Galaxies. CNBC says 2K Sports was unable to secure an insurer for the giveaway because it couldn’t calculate the odds of winning. Read more at CNBC.
