    The gameplay itself is awesome. But what moron wouldn't think to put the option of shortening the seasons. I work 40 hours a week and I can't possibly play that long of a season. It's very frustrating

    The new material that EA has implemented is minimal at best, and most of the additions don't generate a lot of excitement. With that said, this is still the best-playing baseball game on the market. [March 2005, p.118]
  2. The bottom line is that if you're looking for a realistic and feature-rich baseball video game, you can't go wrong with MVP Baseball 2005.

    MVP retains the Gold Glove for controls, but the competition has made up ground. [Apr 2005, p.97]
