Small issues aside, it's hard to go wrong with the generally realistic, technically superb and enjoyable gameplay found in Triple Play Baseball.
-
The perfect game for the casual baseball fan. The controls are easy to learn, hitting is a breeze, and even at the hardest levels, the AI isnt that hard.
-
The graphics are excellent, to be sure, but it's a little disturbing that the PlayStation 2 graphics for the game look better than the PC.
-
Offense has completely consumed the Triple Play Baseball series... Every other aspect of the real sport has also been dumbed down to the point of irrelevance. Pitching, baserunning, fielding, and those all-important managerial moves mean nothing as long as you have good hand-eye coordination. Gameplay has devolved to a simple button-pushing exercise.
-
The latest release in this hopelessly unrealistic arcade series that just fell yet another notch on the realism scale.

GamePowerIn baseball parlance, we figure we'll wait till next year.

Unfortunately, at $30, the shot is foul. Guys, it's called a roster patch. Look it up.
