EA gets the early jump, Take Two to follow

Take Two is serious about winning the hearts (and dollars) of baseball fans.  When EA announced that MVP would be shipping tomorrow, Take Two went right ahead and followed suit, bumping up MLB 2K5's release by a week.  That's right, February is the official jumpoff for baseball's 2005 season.  Let the competition begin.

Note: 2K5 will retail for $19.99, while MVP will carry a slightly more expensive price tag of $29.99.
