GREAT-BUT A LOT OF BUGS

Well, this game will not replace BASEBALL FOR WINDOWS (ABPA), but, it's very good as a general manager program. The bugs is the problem. A number of screens are like a double exposure. Some are even blank--a color matching problem? To get rid of the double exposure, you must make the window small, then enlarge. To read the news stories, click on the piece you want to read, then go to the standings display, then back to the story. You will basically be able to read it, or at least most of it. The program locks up, so, I would suggest you save often, especially after a game. The play by play screen moves too fast, even in the slowest setting. You are suppose to manage without having to pick pitches. It should have three settings on the play by play screen, which allows this. But my copy only has two: GENERAL MANAGE, and MANAGE, with no PLAYER selection. In the manage mode, you are stuck with the very unpleasant--and unrealistic--task of having to pick every single pitch. (The manage mode, on my copy, combines the manager and player modes.) Still, this game is fantastic. Imagine being the general manager of any team from 1901 thru 2006. It's the GM version of BASEBALL FOR WINDOWS, (with the encyclopedia to get all the teams in history). I sent an e-mail about the problems, and got no reply! There may be a bug fix, but I couldn't find it on their site.

This game is great fun, but a little simple for an advanced strategist. It has all teams from 1901 through 2006.

Great Game for the Price!

I love this game. I already played baseball mogul2004 and enjoyed it but this upgrade is well worth it. It allows you to pick not only the lineups but also the pitches and location. You can play each game of the season or pick and choose which ones you want to play. You can pick real players from the real majors or use fictional players . Makes you feel like George Steinbrenner....

Fun, but many issues

This is a fun game for those interested in statistics and fantasy baseball, but there are many glitches in the game. Every ten minutes, the game will freeze, and you'll have to close it and restart it again, and hope you saved it recently.

Wait for 2008.

Good baseball sim

This is the best baseball simulation on the market (prior to '08 anyway). I found myself playing it for hours at a time, but it did get rather boring. This is more of a reflection on how long the real baseball season is than on the gameplay itself. Nearly any statistic you could ever want or need is at your fingertips with this game.

I recommend this for anyone that enjoys sports simulations and baseball.

Boring!

The only thing you do is guess where the pitcher is going to throw it or what the best pitch is and where it should be located. It doesn't even have real life stats, for example I was batting with David Ortiz and he NEVER hit a home run! The only cool thing is that you can play with some of the first teams ever and where the old jerseys (which is pathetic because you only see the pitcher's jersey). Even though this game is cheap compared to other games trust me and get MVP Baseball 2005 instead.

Still the best baseball sim out there

Every year i cant help but pick this game up. While i still enjoy action baseball games theres a part of me that still wants to be more in depth with what goes on with my club, and baseball mogul gives u that. Its the only game that lets you handle an entire minor league system that actually produces starters from development. This game is the pure defination of what its like to be a general manager. Everything from personell decisions to ticket prices, farm team and medical budgerts, to detailed contracts and trades, this game gives any real sports fans endless hours of playing time. The massive player data base lets you start a season as far back as the early 1900's. Even better, real life players from back then become the new minor leaguers, not made up names. Make your home town team the new "Yankees" by landing studs like Ruth, Gherig, and Mantle as the years go on. A++++++

Very comprehensive baseball simulation

This game has much to offer to the strategist. Not intended to be the typical "arcade-style" game -- you do not control the players movements in any way. Instead, it allows you to construct teams and play individual games making managerial (e.g. hit & run, steal, replace players) and player (e.g. call pitches and location, swing or take a pitch) decisions. Or you may opt to play a more long-term role, letting the computer simulate games while you make personnel and business decisions. You may simulate days, weeks, or even seasons at a time. It enables this with an extensive library of player data - major and minor leaguers going back to 1901. It will also create fictional players if you let it.

Drawbacks are that the simulation tends to make some unusual decisions - for instance, computer generated trades can seem pretty random, though they can be turned off. Also, while it is good at introducing variation into the individual games (for instance it will occasionally rest starters), some of the decisions it makes can be unorthodox. I would also like to see the ability to import schedules when replaying historical seasons; the algorithm it uses tends to introduce 3-day gaps. Lastly, make sure to install the latest online updates, which fix a few bugs and add key features like the ability to perform a double-switch in the lineup.

Those negatives aside, I have not found a baseball simulation as rich in features as this one. And at a bargain price.

GREAT BUT...

...pratically unplayable from out of the box. When I first installed it many of the transaction screens were minimized and I was unable to enlarge them. The good news is there is an auto update in a pull down menu. The Mogul guys seem pretty good with the updates. There have been two updates in the last two weeks. The last update added visible "overall/peak" directly to the lineup and pitching rooster. The only problem is this update addded some bug to the play-by-play.
