User Rating: 9.3 | MVP Baseball 2003 PC
For my money this is the best PC Baseball game on the market. It combines superb graphics and sound with fun and exciting game play. It is the ‘Madden’ of Baseball if you will. I love the Franchise mode. You are given clear goals that you have to achieve as the manager of a team within a 10 year window. Such goals are 3 seasons over .550, .600 division record in 2 seasons and make the playoffs in 3 seasons… there are more of course. The game really puts you on the pitchers mound and in the batters box. Fielding is the ball is exceptional in the fact that you make decisions at the same speed that a ball player would. As for strike-outs, yes my first 3 or 4 games I couldn’t even say I was able to get a strike off a batter. But now I’m averaging 4 to 5 Ks a game… with a decent pitcher of course. Stats are a plenty in the game and there is a lot you can do with managing the team as well. Whether you’re an avid baseball fan or just like a good sports game this one won’t be a disappointment. It really deserves better then the 8.1 rating it received.
