he has, for several years, decided not to participate in the blanket licensing agreements the union uses to negotiate use of player likenesses en masse.
No licensing permission, no Bonds. And that's all of it.
The haters WANT there to be some dark conspiracy, because that's what their sad lives are like. There isn't one.

Bonds isnt in any video games cause hes not in the mlb players union so hes isnt licensed to be in the games.BTW there is a character w/ his attributes and swing but has a different name.

Barry Bonds is an SOB who doesn't believe that the fans deserve a piece of him. Did you see his interview during the Home Run Derby this year? He droned on and on about himself while his "peers" should have been in the limelight. In case no one has said it yet, I think it was selfish on him not to participate. He was afraid that all of the young guns would show him up.

MLBPA, he is not a part of it. He was a while back but is not currently. So games are not allowed to use his name or likeness in thier products.
Usually the game puts a similar player with close attributes and a different name and allow you to change the name manually.
And yes, Chipmaker is correct, however I don't really call him a member. Technically he is a member but he basically has his cake and eats it too. So I disagree in that respect.

No liscense agreement, but they usually make up some name for him and give him ratings
On MLB 07 The Show the Giants left fielder is
"Reggie Stocker"

He doesn't give permission to let them use him in the games.
Reggie Stocker is Bonds in most of the new games, but I don't think they have the right career records for him.

Probably because Sony didn't get permission from him to put him in any video games.

cause he's slime, and can't make money (enough) off of it, so they just put some guy in the game name Joe Smith with 100% ability

yeah it sucks he doesn't have the record for the most home runs though I think it starts over.
eg. he starts out with no career home runs
