THE BEST EVER!

This game is the #1 selling baseball game on Amazon.com with good reason. It's the best Baseball Mogul yet, and Baseball Mogul is the best baseball game ever.

Two biggest features for this year:

1) Full screen interface. No more hurting eyes!

2) New sortable lists let you see some or all the players in the league and sort by any stat, and show any stat. Career Innings Pitched Per Game? Minor League On-Base Plus Slugging? Year-To-Date Quality Start Percentage? You name it, they got it!

3) 100 years of stats! I loved kicking ... with the 1953 Dodgers and taking them into the 60s. Still working to outdo Tommy Lasorda's record.

And of course the whole game has been improved. A capstone accomplishment!

Fun for a while..

This is a fun little game. It does not compare to the other text based games (like out of the park 5), but it does not try to. If you like your game lite w/ out the bother of hiring coaches, scouts etc. and you like it to be easy, this is your game! Try it out, you may fall in love. I recommend this game to any new text based baseball game, then when you are ready to move up go try something else. Great starting point for players!

2k4 or 2k3?

2k4 is not much of an upgrade from 2k3 (or 2k2 for that matter). You have full screen now and can upload any season (things you could already do with many other text based sims). I'm not sure the game offers much from 2k3. I would recommend picking up an old copy of Baseball Mogul 2K if you really wanting to play this game. Or go try OOTP 5 (at www.....com) if you want something more advanced. But if you are looking for something a little simple, then pick this game up! It is very good for what it is. Just expect a lite game is all!

Stimulating and addictive

As a Red Sox fan, I constantly question the moves made by the front office of my beloved team. Do I think I can do better? Of course! I love the challenge of acquiring and trading players, building a championship team without a hefty payroll, developing minor leaguers, and crafting the perfect batting order and rotation. I have played Baseball Mogul for hours on end, playing several seasons in one sitting to see if my moves pay off. And you can do just about anything in this game: set ticket prices, determine length of pitcher's starts, even trash Fenway and build a new stadium. I have been entertained by this game for countless hours!

Quick and Easy

In today's world of having everything occur instantly, Baseball Mogul delivers. The game is easy enough that you can be playing the role of George Stienbrenner in less than 5 minutes. It has an easy to use Windows interface that allows you to jump to different features within 1 or 2 clicks of your mouse.

With the new historical database added to Baseball Mogul 2004, you can replay any year in history. See the Red Sox crowned champions in 1986! What would have happened if there was no strike in 1981? The scenerios and possibilities are unlimited. Keep in mind this game is for the person looking to control a team from the front office. Make trades, sign free agents, allot more money to your farm system, raise or lower ticket prices, and develop prospects. You can simulate 1 day or the entire season. It is very feasible to simulate several seasons in less than an hour. For less than $..., this game is priced right. I'd recommend trying the demo distributed by the company to see if Baseball Mogul 2004 is right for you.

Excellent game.

I just discovered Baseball Mogul and wish I had found it years ago. Why isn't this great game better known? Its got more game than Chuck Woolery. You get to be the general manager for a real MLB team, managing the roster, recruiting free agents, setting play strategies and setting salaries. In short, everything a real general manager does. Its not much in the way of an arcade fix but if you're looking for strategy, you get it in spades.

Baseball Mogul Rocks!

In my view, the game is great. While it is not a huge improvement over past versions it is still better than anything prior. There was enough done to the game for me to buy the 2004 version.

I would have liked to see an Amateur draft included, but I realize how difficult of a change this would be, however I do look forward to it being included in a future version.

In the end I must say that for the price I definitely get much more than my money's worth with this game. I will keep me thoroughly entertained for many months.
