Good Game, But I'm Confused.

It's a good game, one of the best I've played. The Franchise mode is almost as realistic as running a real baseball team. They have record books with stats from teams AND major league history. The graphics are great but the new camera angles aren't too shabby. Overall, it's the best ASB made yet.
But one question... Am I missing something? Or is Barry Bonds not in the game?

Almost an All-Star

This years installment has made a lot of the necessary improvements to prior years. The new camera angles are confusing if you're used to the classic ones but you can default back to the old views if you want. Barry Bonds and a couple of other players aren't in the game due to contractual agreements. Since Barry didn't renew his membership with the Players Association, no baseball video game can include his name without having to pay him a lot of money. I really like the fact that you can download updates to your rosters to make it more realistic. However, if you are playing in Franchise mode I'm not sure what happens once you update your roster. Does it automatically update your Franchise roster? and if so, do you lose your created players? Good game, not great, but best on the market.

Not to Shabby!

I have to say I like the game. The gameplay is realistic and the graphics are great. I would like to see the hitting changed a bit. It's so hard with the cursor and to easy with the timing on. The fielders cam is cool but far to confusing to play as for to long. As for Barry Bonds, during the offseason he opted out of the MLBPA which is why he is not in this game. Mailman of the Giants is the "Bonds" type replacement.

a little glichy

this is one of the most fun baseball games of all time! Id rather have this than some of the newer games its so fun. there are a couple of gliches though. one time my friend and i were takin turns playin innings he hit a grounder and the guy made it to second because it got by the 3rd baseman while he was standing on second the 3rd baseman was holdin on to the ball and it said OUT. sometimes gliches can be just so funny though we laughed for a couple minutes after that. I HIGLY RECOMEND IT.

get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

do not play this game its sucks medium is too hard and easy is WAY too easy. Fielding is impossible because the player will not automatically catch the ball if they are standing in the catching area. Too many doubles by the computer. The computer will NEVER swing at any balls.

Don't buy this game

This game is poor at best. The graphics are miserable compared to MVP 2004, so bad that the baseball cards you're supposed to collect are nearly unreadable, even when you zoom in to view them.

Navigation between modes/screens is long and tedious.

The gameplay is also unenjoyable. Fielding is slow, and hitting is more complex than it needs to be.

I've now tried MVP, and ASB this season, and I'm now waiting for ESPN MLB, maybe it won't be the disappointment ASB 2005 has been

greatest baseball game ever

Don't waste your money on this game. Pick up EA's MVP Baseball instead. The graphics are better, the gameplay is more realistic. ASB 2005 is stiff and awkward and not much fun.
