It's hard to argue with graphics and sounds of this quality.
-
netjakThe game really has it all. From perfect physics to great graphics, TP2002 is a solid, well-developed title.
-
A very fun baseball game to play. The game's great graphics, involving gameplay, and great commentary all blend together to deliver an exciting and authentic game of baseball.
-
Triple Play 2002 will appeal to a large range of fans, but will especially appeal to those who are scared off by more complex or technical baseball games, like "All Star 2003."
-
When it comes to the big picture of realistically capturing the true nature of the game, this falls short of the wall.
-
Tries new things with the game’s presentation, but what it really needs is to revamp the fundamentals like the pitching interface and two-player matches.
-
Fielding is awful, but not nearly as bad as it has been in previous Triple Play games.
-
Not fun. If you are looking for a baseball game that involves any thought process more complicated than, “throw the ball, hit the ball”, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Xbox Nation MagazineAs ugly as a Tim Wakefield knuckleball. [Spring 2002, p.91]
-
Not as fun as the extra-exaggerated Triple Play games of the past and nowhere near as good as better baseball simulations by 3DO and Acclaim.
-
Official Xbox MagazineThe defensive players move at the speed of John Kruk dragging Tony Gwynn behind him. [May 2002, p.76]
-
An unprecedented, uninspiring, un-everything negative pile of digital garbage
-
Electronic Gaming MonthlyThis game can't even show a bunt without a glitchy flaw or two. [May 2002, p.114]
-
Game InformerTerrible when it comes to gameplay. [Apr 2002, p.83]
-
Lacking just about everything that makes their top-shelf titles great, namely the depth of modes and the attempt at re-creating the nuances of the sport, Triple Play 2002 is an action-heavy game that needs a complete overhaul in player models, fielding, pitching, and options.
-
Beyond the pretty stadiums, there's nothing that rises above mediocrity in Triple Play. Yes, it really is that bad...You're better off not owning a baseball game this year, than owning this one.
-
At all costs, do not expose yourself to the undying horror known as Triple Play 2002.
