 One of the best baseball games ever. December 7, 2006
This is a great game and a must have for any baseball fan. The only thing I don't like is not about the game, it's about the amount of attention it gets. When I went and bought this at Circuit City a guy came over and basically said this game stinks and that I should get MLB 2K6 which stunk. Other than that the fielding, pitching, and everything else inbetween is great... except for the commentators, which can get kind of dull, but gameplay makes up for that. I give MLB 2K5 World Series edition two thumbs up.
 More bugs than MLB 2K5, but great fun! June 27, 2006

I have owned both this World Series Edition game and the Original version on my X Box. I ended up selling my used copy of the former here at Amazon.com. I could see that this game took the place of my original purchase.
This game is one of the best baseball videogames I've ever played! I'll say it again, ONE OF THE BEST! My brother came over to my house, and played this game with me after I had purchased it! I'm in my 40's and he's in his upper 30's! I'm the big gamer of the family, and he rarely plays! HE COULD NOT PUT THIS GAME DOWN! He said: "This game is awesome!!!"
Well, I have to say I am a bit shallow when it comes to games, but I'll tell you my feelings and feel free to choose helpful or unhelpful, depending on your feelings! I will make it as good as can! Because I really love this game!!! All ratings are out of 5 stars.
GAMEPLAY: 4.5 stars
Many great options here. I'm pretty lousy at baseball, and I enjoy controlling the sliders to my liking, and giving the disadvantage to the opposing team! I love how you can advance the runner, and take control. It is not perfect, but it is lots of fun, and nice to take a different angel. I'd love to see taking control of the catcher, perhaps in future editions, thought I don't think it made it to the 2K6 version. Maybe 2K7?
MINIGAMES: 3.5 stars
This is where this version stands out! It's addition of "Great World Series Moments " Pennant Fever Mode makes for stellar gameplay. Homerun King is also fun! Not its highest effort, but still great!
SKYBOX MODE: 4 stars
Love this mode, and its fun to purchase options to include in your gameplay. Nice videos and excellent interplay options.
MUSIC OPTIONS: 4.0 stars
Despite what other games say, this was, to the best of my knowledge, the first baseball sports game which allows you to choose the music in many game play options within the game. Not just the beginning, not just the end. But throughout the game! At bats; Base hits; strikeouts; Pitcher entries; etc. When you go through the menu screens, you get an opportunity to customize all of your tunes. They let you choose music for the Home Team hitters as they approach the plate. They even let you choose music for specific stadiums. It is the most awesome feature in any sports videogame I have ever owned!
One less star than earlier mode, due to Hometeam glitch in playing up to bat music. I'm pretty sure it is a glitch that causes the system to default to same song for all batters. Can't seem to fix it.
GREAT WORLD SERIES MOMENTS DVD
This is a nice treat! I have watched this DVD several times. I would say you have to be a baseball junkie like me to really get into it, but its a nice little bonus!
Over all, I have to give this one 4.5 stars out of 5 stars. It is truly an awesome game!

Best baseball game for 2005 June 23, 2006
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great game! Very realistic. The only problem I have with it (and it will probably drive you nuts, but you get over it) is this: when you are stealing a base or in a situation that requires you to slide into a base in a close play, you will nearly always be out. This is because runners' feet do not touch the base immediately when they slide in, so even if they appear safe, they will be called out (and you can't argue calls). Aside from that, I like everything else about this.
Fun game, too much commentary June 10, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
We bought this game for like $9.99 at Best Buy the other day and it actually ROCKS! It is alot of fun and brings out your competitive side! You can be lots of different teams and there's lots of different options to choose from. The only thing that we have noticed so far that STINKS is the fact that the game uses WAY WAY too much commentary so it takes alot longer to play. The good news is that you can chop the commentary down ALOT. If you like sports VG's, especially baseball ones, then definitely give this one a shot.
