Not bad for PS1Sep 11, 2004
By J. Brown For what it is, a PS1 game it's about as good as it gets on the ageing system. Player models are blocky but the game play is fluid and smooth.
The batting / Pitching interface is incredible. Very pinpoit.
Only gripe I had was pitching. It is really easy to strike batters out ( I mean ridiculously easy ) and starters can go 12 inning before they start to lose something off their pitches.
Other than that, if you keep in mind this is a playstation one game, it should deliver the baseball fix you need if you're still using your original playstation with the LCD screen like I am.

The ReasonApr 16, 2004
By Steve Boyd That Barry Bonds is not in is because he is no longer liscensing his likeness through MLBPA. Sort of like Michael Jordan did and Lavar Arrington of the redskins is doing.

Barry is not in my game either. However, A-Rod is a yankee.

>:(Apr 27, 2004
By Mike Stegeman Rosters aren't that great, and it is impossible to hit homeruns with guys that normally hit around 10-15 in real life. It's completely bogus, go for mvp baseball. Barry Bonds is also not in mine, and A-rod is still a Ranger.
