I've been looking forward to this game since the end of the College World Series last year, hoping that EA would really buckle down and fix the few minor problems with last year's release. Though the graphics are still mediocre and not much has changed as far as gameplay goes, it's still a great game. One complaint I have is that after the stellar soundtrack from last year this year they only have fight songs from schools. I think the idea is great, but there should still be some normal tracks as well. Definitely worth the $30 you'll pay for it, but don't expect much more than the last one.

Looking forward to starting a new franchise this year after getting through 4 seasons with the previous game!

The game overall is pretty good.Graphics aren't the best,but I didn't expect greatness from it.It is pretty fun to play,as you can play as most of the college teams.It is easy to get the hang of as well.Overall,I would recomend buying it

This game is not much better, if at all, than the 2006 version. Everything is basically the same except 2006 had better sponsors like Nike and Easton. It also had cooler graphics, i.e. the pitchers glove would close an open as he caught the ball from the catcher. I stuck with 2006 and love it.

I didn't know what to expect from a *college* baseball video-game, but this game turns out to be a lot of fun [especially the career mode; not only do you have to worry about your players getting injured, occasionally you might have a player get suspended for academic reasons]. The only drawback that I saw with this game is that (like ALL college-sports games) the players names are NOT accurate; but that's easy enough to fix manually. I was pleasantly surprised by how good this game is. Play ball!!!

It was a fun game when it started but then it was way too easy. Then I brought the level to all star. Still I was winning by a lot. It's a fun game but it's too easy after a while.

I initially purchased NCAA 06 because I wanted a baseball game for my new PS2, and I had more interest in my school's team than any Major League team. Sadly, MVP 06 seemed a bit sloppy to me, particularly when using the analog joysticks.

MVP 07 version seems to be a marked improvement over its predecessor. This game has visual instruction as to how one uses various pitching/batting/fielding buttons, as opposed to simply putting the instruction in the manual. The game seems to have a far better response from the keypad/joystick than the prior version of NCAA Baseball. The change to the graphical illustration of the rock-and-fire pitching motion is perhaps the greatest visual improvement to the game, as it is otherwise rather similar to MVP 06 in terms of menu layout, graphics, and gameplay. Similar, yet improved.

Overall, NCAA Baseball MVP 07 is a worthwhile game to own if you're a college baseball fan, and certainly more worthy of your shelf than the prior year's game. The gameplay is fun, it's rather easy to play once you get used to the controls, and the gameplay seems closer to the way college baseball is played than many sports games seem to be relative to their respective sports. Sure, it doesn't take 3 hours to finish a game, but the way pitchers tire, the way momentum carries innings, the way the ball can fly off of a bat (but not be a home run every time...), it just seems a bit more realistic than the cartoonish feel of football, basketball, or pro baseball video games.

worth the 30 bucks, the rock and fire pitching is nice. Go Blue.

My favorite sport to play outside is football but my favorite video games are usually baseball games (until ESPN 2K10 comes out thanks Madden!!!). I really had a fun time with this game and couldn't wait to play it as soon as I got off work. The controls are very responsive and what really made it fun was i dont know 90% of the players I'm playing with and figuring out who your star is really brings the shut-da-F***-up-and-play-da-damn-game mentality into play. Who cares who's who. Just play.
