Swing battah!
Order that extra hot dog and break out the fireworks. EA Sports has slugged a grand slam with its latest hardball release.
EA Sports has a well-deserved reputation for great realism with top- shelf graphics, excellent controls and highly refined team-management options. But with MVP Baseball 2004, EA has brought us something new, turning America's favorite pastime into a truly great experience.
Everything you expect in a baseball video game is here, but the premium hitting, fielding, pitching, and base running controls, coupled with the ability to swing for the fences and protect the plate when you have a two-strike count sets a new standard for baseball games.
If that weren't enough to make you drool, the game includes all 60 AA and AAA minor league teams, plus legendary players, classic stadiums, and retro jerseys that can be unlocked by spending MVP points. MVP points are earned by performing in-game heroics and reaching Dynasty Mode goals.
