    I must have yelled "Oh wow!" at least 900 times when I first booted up RayStorm. The polygonal enemies and terrain look phenomenal, making this the most eye-catching PS title yet. [July 1997]

    Rockstar could easily sell this game for full price, and it would still be well worth buying. [June 2002, p.120]

    What ruined it is that the pitching and fielding are so much slower than real life. [Oct 2001, p.152]
