MVP Baseball 2005

[Smokey Joe]

I used to have this game for the ps2 and it was positively awesome, and one of the top 10 video games ever, IMO. Unfortunately I don't have it anymore, but I am looking for MVP 2005 for the PC so I can easily update the rosters/schedules/etc, so it will be like MVP 2007.

The problem is, I can only find them at ridiculous prices like 50-60 bucks, and at about 30-40 on eBay. Does anyone know where I can find a pretty reasonably priced version of the game? If anyone here has it and willing to sell it, please pm me.

Also, if anyone has played the PC version compared to the PS2/xbox version, are they both pretty much the same?

i have that game, its really fun, but on my game right handers hit alot more homers than lefties, so i basically just go all righty in my line up

i know some places you could get the game for free, but not legal, i'm not sure where you could buy it besides ebay, maybe check craigs list

[comahan]

Awesome game. Threw a one hitter with Jason Jennings earlier today.

[M.O.T.H.]

ha... i just let my friend borrow that game.

[RyanLeaf#1]

Funny you bring this up me and my brother were talking about this game yesterday. It is easily the best baseball game of all time, and is definitely still playable today. John Dowd (White Fake Barry Bonds) is a beast.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

I really do miss this game. I wish they would still make it because it blows ESPN out of the water.

[LTgiants]

i have it for the pc and its a ***** to update all those rosters

[P-L]

Like commie, I still play it...

[Smokey Joe]

yeah they both are... I have the site for you to go to once you get if for the computer that will update your rosters and everything to 2007...

[scar988]

dude, just go to mvpmods.com and download the MVP:07 patch. it updates everything

[WinslowBodden]

I still think the first Ken Griffey Jr. and Ken Griffey Jr. for the N64 are the two best baseball games I've ever played.

[RoyHall#1]

ha... i just let my friend borrow that game.

same here lol

[Smokey Joe]

yeah they both are... I have the site for you to go to once you get if for the computer that will update your rosters and everything to 2007...
yeah, I have been looking at both mvpmods and eamods. Those guys do a great job.

[Bem1]

its a shame that the one sport game EA is really good at making is the only one where they no longer make it

[LTgiants]

dude, just go to mvpmods.com and download the MVP:07 patch. it updates everything

thanks i didnt no there was a mvp site that does all this

MVP Baseball 2005 is the best baseball game ever. I'm pissed they lost their rights to make the game. It would look absolutely sick on XBOX 360.

[Sniper]

Such a sweet game. Picked it up recently, David Ortiz has like 52 HR in 65 games. He's an animal

[Shane P. Hallam]

Awesome game. Threw a one hitter with Jason Jennings earlier today.

Commie loves it. I love it. Everyone should love it.

[fenikz]

i liked all star baseball too, basically just for the batting system, i loved throwing down drag bunts & then i could always steal 2nd and 3rd

[jballa838]

its all about world series baseball 2k3

[fenikz]

2k sports suck unless its football or basketball

[jballa838]

sorry i meant INside Pitch 2003, it didnt get good ratings from the sites but it was still hecka fun.

[ironman4579]

MVP '05 is probably the best baseball game ever. Of course, Baseball Stars for Nintendo is a true classic as well.

[Its all about The U]

How about RBI baseball for the NES its like Tecmo for baseball, simply awesome

[Ewing]

It really sucks that Take Two bought the rights to the MLB games even though MVP was far and away the best baseball series out there. I just picked up MLB 2K7 for the X-Box 360 a few weeks ago and even though it's good it's nothing compared to MVP.

[fenikz]

i need to go buy a game cube controller i need to plays some mvp

[Ewing]

i need to go buy a game cube controller i need to plays some mvp

GC Controller are horrible for sports games. Get a PS2 controller.

[Windy]

too many home runs robbed in 2k7. way to many.

[fenikz]

i dont think a ps2 controller will work on a game cube...lol

and gc are by far the most comfortable controllers for anything

[DChess]

this was so much fun, so indpeth

[josh07039]

There is actually a comprehensive mod for it that converts it to mvp 07. There are new rosters released all the time on mvpmods.com

it wasnt good, it blew. i rented it and went home, tried one game and walked into the hollywood video and asked the guy if i could swap it for a different one because this game blew hardcore. then i rented NBA 2K7 and it was all good.

[M.O.T.H.]

too many home runs robbed in 2k7. way to many.

yup and you hit too many homers...

I had a season... I couldnt hit doubles... Chipper had like 13 homers 16 RBIS...ugh.

[RyanLeaf#1]

Anyone remember Little League Baseball for Nintendo? That was also a classic.

Take two and EA sports should both drop the rights of MLB and NFL games respectively. it is just rediclous.

[Stash]

No video game company should be able to own the rights like that because it just makes the games worse for the consumers. When companies like EA and Take Two buy the rights to the NFL and MLB, respectively, then there is no competition for the games they make. Then they don't have to put as much effort into the product because if we consumers want an NFL or MLB game they know we don't have a choice.

It sucks. I agree with you. But, as the old saying goes, "money talks and ******** walks."

Yeah basically. Its just messed up. NFL 2K5 is still updating rosters because people still like that more then Madden, but i don't know why they dont just cut a deal to drop both.

That pisses me off so much.

[draftguru151]

I found MVP 05 for xbox, but there isn't a patch for the 360 and I don't have the power cord for me xbox. Soooo mad.
