Bonds declines to participate in the group licensing that the MLBPA (of which he is a member) offers to its constituents, which is his right. Licensors interested in using Bonds' name and likeness must negotiate directly with him or his representatives.
Millar and Lidle entered baseball as replacement players during the waning days of the 1994-95 strike. As such, while the union will represent them in labor issues, it does not represent them for licensing. Lidle also carries the disadvantage of being dead, so his licensing opportunities are quite small anyway.

I know in MLB 2K5 Barry is not in there. it has nothing to do with them letting him its all about Barry and getting paid for his likeness. He figures he can get more money on the open market then just by being in a game. That way he has more control over where he would like his likeness displayed.

guy, I had to click that thumbs-down button plenty... Bonds IS a member of the main effective League Baseball gamers association. many people, and scroll up for distinctive examples, get this thoroughly incorrect. whether, for a number of years, Bonds has declined to take part interior the blanket licensing settlement which the union provides to its individuals for negotiating licenses to apply the likenesses and names of the union individuals. this is carefully interior of his rights, and by using declining to take part, Bonds does not carry mutually licensing expenditures from the union's licensors. Bonds in union? definite. Bonds in union licensing application? No. His option to decide out. this is all of it.

It's not that hes not allowed to be in those games, he has to agree to be put in the game. Plain and simple. It's not like they don't ask him or something. Players have to give consent to be used in a video game.

He's not part of the MLBPA, the players association which does not allow him to be in video games, there are a lot of other players who do this as well.

I think that they choose not to be in the game. I don't think they aren't allowed, I just think they don't want to be in the game.

Bonds opted not to let them use his name, not the other way around.
