MVP is probably my favorite game of all time, that 05 version was sick. anyone else agree??? Gag me with a spoon. MVP Baseball is garbage, it is arcade, easy as hell, 200+ HR's a season baseball, unrealistic pitching, lame presentation, lame commentary. The Show Series is the best baseball series ever. IT is sim, not arcade. Playing the demo the graphics are VASLTY improved from last year. Better textures on skin and clothes and even the baseball and even stadiums. Lighting reflects off name and numbers on back of jersey, and you can see pine tar on helmets with light reflection off of them. Clothes that wrinkle realistically, wind blowing clothing, tons of animations that give the game a baseball feel more so than any other game. No lame cardboard cut out crowd, they jump for balls hit near them. When you let the game go unpaused things get really interesting. players get bored so they do some...odd things to pass time. Umpires taking a bat from a batter and swinging it a few times before giving it back to the batter, or the batter using the bat as a guitar, or 1st baseman talking to first base ump and also talking to first base coach. Players in dugout doing the wave. Manny laying on the ground in the outfield, Ellsbury doing situps in the field. OR even PLayers trying o hype up the crowd and the crowd responds by cheering. No game gets closer to baseball than The Show Games who out there misses the MVP series by EA. that game was damn near perfect. the gameplay was second to none and i wish 2k wouldn’t have bought up mlb rights so they could have kept progressing the game into the next gen formats. MVP is probably my favorite game of all time, that 05 version was sick. anyone else agree???
