    Unfortunately, there isn't a Franchise mode in MVP, but there is a great season mode, as well as an addictive Homerun Showdown. [May 2005, p.71]

    Gameplay definitely takes some getting use to, due to the design of the PSP.

    Sure you’ll miss the features found on the bigger boys (Owner Mode or even Spring Training Mode) but there’s just no denying how good this game feels in your hands.

    There isn't another baseball game on the system that feels this authentic or puts so many aspects under the player's control.

    MVP’s a solid game that does a nice impersonation of a PS2 title, but its got a number of flaws and missing features that make 989’s "MLB," not MVP, the baseball game to have for the PSP this year.

    Simply a solid hit rather than the round-tripper it could've been. [Aug 2005, p.84]

    Next time we want better looking characters, models, more detail in the stadiums, no black-out screens, less glitches and online gameplay. They're completely capable of pulling it off, which makes their shortcoming here all the more disappointing.

    The game is awsome and by far the best I have bought for my psp. However, there is nothing worse than getting into the top of the ninth, with The game is awsome and by far the best I have bought for my psp. However, there is nothing worse than getting into the top of the ninth, with a 1 run lead and 1 out away from a big winand Bam! the game freezes. I have had it happen too many times to count. I had to get used to waiting for the scrren to flash, which signals me that the game is done with the substitution. Then proceed with the game play. I shoudn't have to spend my time trying to read the screen so I don't lose my 3 homerun performance. Other than that, I love this game.… Full Review »

    This is way better than MLB. Besides you can't trust MLB look at Gretzky NHL. It's not all there! This game is so sweet. Buy it!!!!
