Summary: It was great if the maker think about the game deeply.
Comment: Recently, I am a very deep fan of MLB though I am Japanese. It is for that I have many opportunities that I can watch MLB games on Japan TV because Japanese top baseball player went to MLB. Obviousely, MLB playing style is very wonderful. Mainly the batting is power vs power. The batting form and the flying figure of hit homerun ball is splendid. For instance, B.Bond,A Rod and G.Jiamby is so.
When I played this game at first time, that is, for a few weeks, I was very bore for the game. As wrriten in this game review, when we set in our defense play, the movement almost rely on the computer, and we can not reflect our thinking. After that for a few months, I put the game to my book shelf. As I got to be a hot MLB fan day by day, I remembered about the game of the shelf, and played that again.
Unexpectedly, I enjoyed the game more than the first time. That will be because I got many knowledge about MLB. I knew that there were some players who had many unique batting forms. In the same time, in the game I knew what is expressed many unique batting forms too, for instance G.shephield sharp batting form, N.Garusiapara's nervouse glove touch is so. I think that the maker put the deep consciousness to the detailed graphics of players. Off course for the native american fans as you, such things may be natural, but for foreigner fans that is sufficient thing.
Though the defensive is a little bore certainly, the batting play is fun. We can reflect our thinking for the play to some extent, therefore the more we improve our batting technique, as the batting player will react to our wish. I hit 25 homeruns a game by using all star custom setting.
Thank you for reading my poor English.

Summary: What was Sega thinking?
Comment: I wish that I used to review games as a job because the only way I can play World Series Baseball 2K1 is if I were paid to do it!!

Summary: What the?
Comment: This game to start out, looks great! Aside from looking great it may possibly rival early Nintendo versions for the worst MLB game ever made. First, you are introduced to the pitchers. They give you a small detail about the pitcher but no season statistics, so you do not know what you are up against. Secondly, to bat, you release the right trigger to swing. You are forced to use the analog thumb pad also. At the end of the game, it tells you the winner, the loser, if there was a save & the homeruns. NO BOXSCORE!!!??? I don't know about the majority but I like to base my players starting status on two things. 1. Reality (the correct rosters) 2. Game to game statistics. If a player is slacking you have no way of knowing. You can't check in the middle of the game to see what the player is batting on the game. And if you want to change pitchers, you must also call it blind, as they provide no information as to what your players' ERAs might be. Usually games will tell you when a player steps up to bat, how they have faired in that particular game, along with season stats. Here they only provide season stats. I would like a 1-1 today, 2 for 3, etc. This game is not fun. I gave it 2 stars because it looks good. Don't bother buying this game. It will only frustrate you, unless you care nothing for real game play.

Summary: not their best
Comment: I've been touting the Dream Cast's sports game for some time now. Generally they are some of the best--NFL 2K, NBA 2K, Virua Tennis... I suppose it shouldn't come as a surprise that sooner or later I'd find one that isn't that great. And I'm not surprised it is the baseball game. Unlike football and basketball, there really is no movement in a baseball game, which I think is partially responsible for how much I dislike this game. Just being baseball itself. Add that to a difficulty in pitching and batting, and the problems with fielding a ball and you've got a game that isn't real great (I remember a nintendo baseball game that was more fun, even if the graphics weren't that great). I will say that the stadiums and graphics are beautiful, but it takes more than a pretty picture to make a fun game. And this game isn't much fun.
