Video Game Ad Plays Cruel Trick on City of Chicago

Posted By Dan Gibson on Wed, Mar 7, 2012 at 12:00 PM

Tough luck, Cubs fans. You'll have to purchase a $60 video game (and possibly a PS3) to even experience a glimpse of a World Series win.

Of course, I'm a Cleveland Indians fan and I suspect that MLB The Show won't even simulate a championship in digital form for my team. You get to the final out and a screen comes up that says "NICE TRY, LOSER. NOT NOW, NOT EVER."
