Summary: The Best Baseball Sim On The Market!
Review: Alright, so I AM a stats addict...

That being said, I've still got to say that I have never, and I mean NEVER, seen a baseball sim as realistic and enjoyable as this one. If you like arcade style games, you'll hate BM. It has no graphics to speak of, no contol over the actual game play. You take on the role of the General Manager of the team, making trades and payroll decisions, moving players in and out of the lineup... yadda yadda. It's a phenomenal game if you like the strategy of running a team. It's terrible if you want to manage a baseball *game*.

Summary: Be George Steinbrenner For A Day!
Review: Or be Brian Sabean. This is a neat and simple simulation of what it is like to control a baseball franchise. A little short on graphics but the idea and execution are sound. No, you can't just buy all of the best free agents around and expect to win it all. Highly recommended for baseball fans, especially the numbers crunchers.

Summary: Good, but... Incomplete
Review: When I first saw Mongle on Amazon[com.]..., I thought it was the perfect game for me and bought it right away. I always perferd the number crunching, lets make deal, front office play, but Baseball Mongle takes it too far. I enjoyed the game for a couple of weeks but it got annoying having the vowles in the players names mixed up to avoid a law suit from the players assoceation and fixing them took to much time and fo[r]..ced you to cheat using commisioner mode. The game has alot of good points like the addition of meadia,buget whitch has to include scouting Med. staff and farm system and an accurate sim* But soon the drawbacks catch up with you: There is no "real playing" mode in the game; it's all sims, this puts the playoffs almost completely out of your hands witch is annoying since your playoff perfomince is what the game juges you on. So in inclution, the game is fun for awhile but the gaps get annoying fast, still, for 15 bucks it's worth it.
