Presentation- Definately has the feeling of a real-life thrilling baseball game. Graphics- Animations are great, players look just like they do in real life, background is nice. Sound- Commentary is nice, crowd sounds good, and the field noises are satisfactory. Gameplay- Mini-Games are awesome, however some missing season modes stink, but its all good. However, the field controls are poor. Lasting Appeal- You have no franchise to manage, but the mini-games, online multiplayer, and season modes will keep you busy for a while. Overall- This is a nice baseball game, and if you are into baseball console games, don't wait any longer, and buy this baby!
Graphics: 7/10 The graphics are above average and they are smooth. There is nothing that makes this game stand out as next gen though. Sound: Great – 7/10 The music soundtrack is great, but the in game sounds and commentary is repetitive. Gameplay: Great – 7/10 Smooth animations, great single player mode, and fast arcade style, this is a fun game to pick up an play. Replay Value – Above Average 7/10 This is a good arcade style baseball game. It is fast paced, but gets old quick. Playing with others is the only benefit to this game. Overall – 7/10 This is a good, fast, arcade style baseball game, but it doesn't break any molds here. The power-up meter, and single player campaign make this game fun, and slightly addictive. Check it out.
This game is less accurate than "the Show" but it is a great game just the same. This game is more about fun than technical. It's easy to learn and fun to play. How can you go wrong with that? It is a great family game. It's not so difficult that it takes a trecky nerd to be able to play it. It's also not so easy that a five year old will get board with it in a day. It is a good balance in between the two. All who like to play sports games will enjoy this game.
I was a little skeptical that this game wouldn't be very good when I got it. I'm a fan of arcade games and baseball, so I said "why not"? After 1 game I was hooked! This game gets better with every play-through! I played through the mode where you take your rookie through the Bigs from Spring Training to the World Series, and I seriously played all day long from 7 a.m. to midnight! It really was THAT good! Don't rent it, BUY it! :)
You hate doing PS3 Tropies achievement... You are not a big fan of baseball enough that you hate buying a baseball game each year... You want a baseball game that doesnt have a number on it (The Year) and want it to be not outmoded... This game is for you... buy it!!!
