The graphics look gorgeous.
-
The best-looking baseball game ever.
-
Lack of a decent replay, lack of injuries, the occasional quirky fielding, and squatty player models. But honestly EA and Treyarch have put forth a nice product, making several improvements over the PSX versions of the game. The implementation of the pressure-sensitive buttons adds a whole new dimension to the game.
-
Sound effects are good, and the inflated hitting physics that let you send the ball over the wall more often are fun--if that's what you're looking for.
-
If you are more interested in a game that looks great and has easy controls and simplified gameplay, then Triple Play Baseball is the right title for you.
-
A few minor lapses in realism won't get in the way of Triple Play's addicting gameplay.
-
Triple Play may not be the smartest or most realistic baseball video game, but its definitely the best-looking one.
-
If you are looking for an arcade type baseball game where you can pick up a controller and start knocking the ball around the park in your first game, you will enjoy this game.
-
The controls are almost too easy. Some may be disappointed that you are forced to use the analog stick, both when batting and when pitching.
-
A good game of arcade style baseball, but it doesn't offer much in the way of customization and lacks many of the features that were in previous games in the series.
-
While not quite "EA-like," Triple Play is a good, upbeat baseball game with realistic, engaging gameplay.
-
Just enough to satisfy the average player without including statistical and gameplay options that would have stretched the release date and production costs out to an unacceptable level.
-
If what you want is a sim, look elsewhere...It looks great, sounds great and most importantly plays great.
-
With realism aside, I still had a hard time hating this game. It is fun; I just had to forget all I know about baseball.
-
Triple Play's biggest new feature -- cursor-based pitching and batting -- is also its biggest shortcoming.
