Jose Reyes Named Cover Athlete and Official Spokesman for Major League Baseball(R) 2K8
2K Sports, the sports publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software,
Inc. (Nasdaq: TTWO), announced today that New York Mets shortstop Jose
Reyes will be the cover athlete and official spokesman for Major
League Baseball® 2K8.
"This year we have signed one of the most
exciting players in all of Major League Baseball®
as our official cover athlete,” said Ben
Brinkman, Executive Producer, Major League Baseball®
2K8. "Jose Reyes is a multi-talented
player – a great baserunner, fielder and
hitter, making him the perfect spokesperson for Major League
Baseball® 2K8.” "This is the first time I have ever been on
the cover of a video game and it is very exciting to be a part of the
best video game out there,” said Jose Reyes.
Although he is best known for his speed and base-stealing ability, Jose
Reyes is also one of the most well-rounded players in the game and is
the first player in baseball history to have more than 63 steals, 120
runs, 192 hits, and 19 homers in a single season. Reyes led the Major
League in 2006 with 17 triples and 64 stolen bases and set a new Mets
club record with 104 hits at Shea Stadium. Also an avid video gamer and
long time fan of 2K Sports’ products,
All-Star Shortstop Jose Reyes is a natural fit as the official
spokesperson for this year’s edition of the
critically acclaimed Major League Baseball 2K series.
Major League Baseball® 2K8 will
be available spring 2008 for the Xbox 360®
video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PLAYSTATION®3
and PlayStation®2 computer entertainment
systems, the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable)
system, and the Wii™ home video game system.
