    Do not buy this game. This game has decent game play but what makes this game a rip off is that roster management problems force me to start bench players and bench my starters during season mode. This is very frustrating and not fixable. I cant stand to play this game.

    Too many annonying bugs make this very frustrating for a baseball fan (too many wild pitches, roster management problems, stats bubs etc).

    Questionable fielding holds it back from capturing the Golden Glove. "MVP" still holds that honor, but Major Leauge's innovative techniques make it this year's most exciting baseball game. [March 2005, p.118]

    While MLB 2K5 is considerably better than its predecessor, it remains the second best baseball game available.

    The game was number three in a field of three last year, but this season it looks great and has dramatic gameplay improvements for all skill levels. [Apr 2005, p.97]
