MVP 2004

Anyone picked this up? It's almost April so I couldn't resist, of course I was sort of disappointed again, but that's almost a given with any baseball game. I could post a mini review if anyone was interested.

Also, I don't pay attention to offseason trades and come back to find the Yankees just bought everything not nailed down, again.

I'm holding off for ESPN MLB 2k4 for the X-Box. I expect it to have a much better (read more like baseball than football scores) engine.

Is it true with XBL you can download updated rosters? That'd be k-rad, and keep me from having to create Japanese players and rookies.

Also, ESPN MLB 2k4? Nice. Hopefully it'll be better than Allstar Baseball, which wasn't bad, but still really wasn't good. I miss Griffey on Nintendo.

I know with the other ESPN titles, they offer downloadable updated rosters. The NHL game has 2 rosters updates, the NFL had 4 available, the last one being from December. I've no doubt the MLB will have updated rosters; unfortunately, none of them will have Barry Bonds in it, because he is a cock. He's called Mighty Joe Young or some shit, because Bonds decided that allowing the MLBPA to use his name and likeness wasn't making him enough bank.

Fucker.

Barry Bonds is a cock, that is for damned sure.

I am using you folks as my beta testers...give me reviews of the baseball games so I can decide which one I wanna buy =P

On a related note- I read a review in one of the Xbox print mags about a boxing game that sounded pretty cool- but can't for the life of me remember the friggin' name of it! (Getting old sucks). Anyone have a clue? This was a new game- not Knockout Kings, Rocky, or Mike Tyson's Heavyweight Boxing...

Edit- I found it...Fight Night 2004. Not out for another week or two. Fuck!
