Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings

It might not have a ton of content, it’s still lacking online play of any kind and the fact that there are only a handful of stadiums to choose from will certainly be an issue for some, but what is here is almost universally fantastic with the brilliant fundamentals combining beautifully with an array of minor but nearly always effective details to create what is a polished and incredibly likeable sports game.

Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings is a fitting way to round out the baseball season and a great excuse to invite friends over for some local multiplayer action. While another mode and online functionality would've made this package an absolute grand slam, the core gameplay is so addictive and well-executed that it's hard to think of it as anything less than a home run.

Baseball fans don't have too many options available, and on Xbox One Super Mega Baseball is probably the best one so far, as long as they're happy with some Mii-like aesthetics.

For anyone who has enjoyed the classic arcade-style baseball game in the past, the genre is finally back to its original, fantastic form. Do not hesitate to pick up Metalhead’s latest no matter which console you own.

As seriously as Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings takes the sport, it’s still a fun video game first and foremost.

Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings is simply a fun game.

For those who haven’t played the PlayStation version, this is worth a pick-up for the novelty of it all and worth the time for playing with friends.

Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings is a good arcade style game with some great physics and gameplay mixed in to make it a fairly fun baseball title for all gamers of any skill to get into, thanks to the Ego system.
