MVP 2005? The PC version is pretty fun.

MVP 2005 is the best now that EA basically put ESPN out of business.

I know and it sucks. I'm not really much of a gamer, but I love a good video baseball game.

On a related note. Bought NCAA 2006 last night and it is kicking some ass

Much better than 2k5? Worth the buy?


MvP Baseball 2k5 is a really fun game though. I love it. If you get it for Xbox let me know my gamer tag is Cuda1337, we can play sometime.

I played both the ESPN one and MVP. I sold ESPN, MVP is a much better game. It was the opposite for me last season but for some reason they decided to completely rewrite ESPN from the ground up and they missed a lot of what made last year's game good.

NEver played the 05 version. Skipped it because I was not really into gaming for a while. Saw 06 at a buddies house last night then went straight to the store and bought it myself.

Thanks, will do if I get it.

Seems like that is the consensus. I'll probably pick it up tonight.

funny considering that ESPN now owns the license to MLB and EA can no longer continue its MVP franchise

 

[PawNtheSandman]

I could have sworn that EA got the exclusive rights to NBA, NFL and MLB and ESPN got like 1-2 other less popular sports exclusive rights.

 

[Qwest]

another vote for mvp 2005

MVP 2005 for realism... Slugfest Loaded (or 2003, 2004) for fun play.

 

[maddogchen]

MLB 2k5

mvp 2005 isn't that good. I couldn't seem to do any trades at all. i even tried giving them Bonds for a minor leaguer, no go. 3 stars for a minor leaguer? nope.


edit: oh plus mlb 2k5 is cheaper, you could get it for $15-20.

On XBOX, I have both ESPN and EA. I thought EA was too "stiff" and linear. I also agree with the above that ESPN's re-code of the game missed a few things but overall I still like the feel better. The only thing EA really did BETTER than ESPN was the player animations. Technically, I like ESPN's gameplay a lot more. I would sell EA but these sports games go for chump change. I don't even touch EA anymore. (And this was their last baseball game).

MVP 2005.I was a fan of sega baseball games before, but this year MVP is just better
