Summary: Could be better
Review: This was the first baseball sim game I've bought since Tony LaRussa 1996 edition. When Tony 96 came out, it was well ahead of its time, stats galore, from monthly breakdowns and head to head match ups. Even the graphics were good. With Microsoft advertising its mogul feature, I figured that this game would be great. I was way off. Simulation is almost ridiculous, outscoring opponents 14-0 every game gets boring, not enough stat tracking to keep me happy, can't preview line up before game time for managers who like to platoon players. On the other hand, Graphics and commentary are above average. If you are a baseball fan who isn't into the managing aspect of a game, this game is for you. But a realism geek like myself was very disapointed. High Heat Baseball 2001 is infinite times better.

Summary: Its straight
Review: When I buy a baseball video game, I look for it to be challenging on its hardest level, if it doesnt do that for me, I won't play the game too much. I recently played this game when I was at my friends house and I must say it was somewhat of a challenge, maybe because i don't play too much computer baseball. Ive always played it on actual video game systems. What I thought was unique was the fact that you can call up actual AAA players. I have not seen that in other video games, at least for video game systems. Yes, the game will freeze during points and it gets annoying but that happens in a lot of computer video games. I must admit, I've never seen a home run derby when the batter gets 1000 outs. I certainly hope this game stays challenging because when I had MLB 2000 for playstation I was blowing out teams by 20+ runs every game on the hardest level and it just got really boring. Personally I liked the game a lot more because there was a Red Sox player on the cover of it (Nomar), and I am a big Red Sox fan.

Overall this game is worth the price it sells for. If your going to play a lot of games in a row, make the limit at about 4-5 games or you might get sick of it, like any other video game.
