    If you have a PS2, get that version. If you've got a PSX, and you absolutely must have baseball, rest assured that you can buy (or at least rent) this and have a reasonably good time.

    If you can play this game with your eyes closed (figuratively speaking, of course), it's not a bad game. Good timing will yield good hitting numbers and building a team can be fun.

    As far as gameplay is concerned, absolutely nothing has changed since last year's addition (and, quite possibly, the one before that...and the one before that). [June 2004, p.95]

    For a PSone game, it's pretty cool. Not only are the rosters updated there's the new PETCO Park, and Phillies' new crib. Just For a PSone game, it's pretty cool. Not only are the rosters updated there's the new PETCO Park, and Phillies' new crib. Just 2 problems.... NO CHECKED SWINGS!...inexcusable Pitcher fatigue is nill. You can have a starter go 13 innings before they tire On the batting side, the total control batting is great. You guess what pitch and where, and depending on your guess you cursor increases or decreases. I always sit on fastballs away. Options let you disable or enable the D.H. in either league ( Great option, I HATE the D.irty H. orseman. ) Not as pretty as Triple play, but the gameplay blows it away hands down. Enjoy the fun as Vin Scully butchers names *l*… Expand
