Courtesy of EAElectronic Arts, the master of sports video games, is bringing you more college baseball with the MVP 06 NCAA Baseball video game for the Playstation 2 and Xbox! It's baseball with all the up-and-coming pro ball players on your team and tons of solid baseball action. Here's our video game review.
Stepping up to Bat in MVP 06 NCAA Baseball
It's a
college baseball game with a few twists! The basic stuff is there so you can
manage teams, play for
big trophies and all that. But, if you're
online, you can get the latest
sports headlines from
ESPN delivered with a real sports news ticker at the bottom of your screen. Plus, there's a new way to knock the ball out of the park and to throw it home. Are these new features
hot or not? We dish it up below.
Hotdogs and Hot New Features in MVP 06 NCAA Baseball
If you're online (
Xbox Live rules!) then the
ESPN feature is awesome for hardcore
sports fans. But, the new
batting controls that let you use the joystick control rather than just tapping buttons, give you a
way cooler way to smack
home runs. And, if that's not enough, it's
only $30 US!
Foul Balls and Blind Umps in MVP 06 NCAA Baseball
As cool as the new
batting controls are, the new
throwing option is frustrating with a capital
F. If you aren't careful, the wrong button will bounce your throw off the
water boy's head rather than to third base for the out.
The Final Inning for MVP 06 NCAA Baseball
It's a great game of
baseball! You'll have to get used to the new throwing style to really enjoy it, but it's an
awesome way to kick back on the couch and play ball. Especially for just
$30 US!
