    Deep in both gameplay and play modes, it’s a solid feeling game in that the gameplay is tight, the presentation is super polished and the game has Madden-esque depth.

    One of the best playing baseball games I’ve played in recent memory... This game is for purists.

    The sheer number of available teams, modes, and bonuses is simply staggering.

    It's authenticity is its biggest selling point, but a difficult batting interface and loose fielding controls keep it from becoming a legend.

    One big disappointment is that the roster download option that was included in the Xbox and PS2 versions didn't make the final cut here.

    Does all the basics well and with the extra features and historical aspects, it’s worth playtime for the hardcore baseball fan.

    None of the other games come close to this one in terms of gee-whiz frills and bonus content. But ASB 2004 doesn't really get the job done on the field.

    The gameplay is great and there are several playing modes that are a lot of fun (series, pick-up game, expansion team, franchise, etc.) but The gameplay is great and there are several playing modes that are a lot of fun (series, pick-up game, expansion team, franchise, etc.) but the broadcasters often say stuff that is not relevant to the game (i.e. "the infielder had to dive there" on a fly ball to the outfield) and it is impossible to update the rosters because only players with the exact same position can be traded.… Expand
