I'm not sure about the PC version - but in the XBox version I found the stadium creator to be very disappointing. Much like the Madden football one that claimed thousands of options, but only gave you about 15.

the one caveat I will say is that at least as far as I could tell, you could only use in in Owner mode and as far as I got in owner mode I didn't have very much money to make a lot of changes. But even with the "grayed" out options it was very lifted.

for example - you would have liked to see something along the lines of the old earl weaver park creator where you could set the outfield distances and wall heights - so that you could create unique parks.

from what I saw you had 5 choices - something like symmetrical, high right field fence (think the green monster but in right) short fence and two other choices. basically a very limited number of options.

Don't get me wrong, I like MVP 2005 - it is graphically stunning and the player movements are incredible - but I was really looking forward to this feature and thus far have been pretty disappointed.
