Top Five MLB Games of the Last Decade

[AndyP]

I consider the MLB The Show series to more or less dominate all 5 positions in the "Top 5 of the decade". That said, I'd give an honorable mention to all of the games mentioned - ASB, which before The Show was the game that incorporated many of the nuances of baseball more than any other; MVP and High Heat. Of course, I think 2k have finally stepped up their game with 2k10 this year. I never really understood the obsession with MVP05 as a great game - good, but not great.

For me (and I haven't played all the titles, mind you, the list would be:

1. MLB 08 The Show
2. High Heat 2004
3. MLB 10 The Show (might end up being #1 by the time it's said and done)
4. MVP Baseball 2004

MLB Power Pros 2008 belongs in the discussion.

I'm still playing it lol. If this game had 40-man rosters, waivers, Rule 5, etc. I truly believe this game will still be in most peoples game systems. The owner mode is just fantastic.

1- MVP Baseball 2005 (PC) - best sports game I have ever played.
2- MLB '10: The Show (PS3) - new to the series but am in love with it.

Nothing else even comes close to those two games IMO.

Not mentioning Interplay Sports Baseball 2000 for PSX is a fail on every level.

EDIT: Oh duh, and MLB Power Pros (haven't played 2008).
