If you'rer looking for a great baseball game, choose any of the Triple Plays. I am rating the computer game here. Triple Play 2000 lets you create player, manage teams, play games, have homerun derbies, play or simulate seasons, play playoffs, a network game, and the graphics are pretty good. Choose from any of the 30 stadiums (as of 1999) and the broadcasters are Buck Martinez and Jim Houston. Choose Triple Play.

Solid game overall, but......

The gameplay is fun and pretty realistic if not totally true to life. The graphics are great, and the commentary is entertaining. The problem with this game is the computer AI. Often the opposing team can't seem to drive in runs unless they jack one out of the park. Also it is far too easy to hit. I constantly end games with 20+ hits and that takes away from the authenticity of the game. Another problem is that There are not enough options. After you're done with a season there really isn't much else to do. The game could definately use a franchise mode similar to the Madden football . series. If it had that this game would get 5 stars

Pro's: Fun gameplay Great graphics Nice commentary

Cons: AI could be upgraded Needs a franchise mode

Baseball?

When my parents got me my playstation I got Triple Play 200 and NHL 99. I never would have bought it but until I got Driver It was the best game in the whole world. If you're bored you can pick it up on a rainy day and play forever.

Buy it for your own good.

This is Not Baseball

Yeah the title is right. This is Power Baseball. I nearly see 2 HRs a game at least. I like playing games that are real. Baseball is a lot different than this game. It is no fun at all. I wish I can see a game that actually has realistic baseball. You know the one that you don't score all of your runs off of homeruns. In this game there hardly is a Pitching rotation. Your Pitcher can basicaly pitch every 2 games. So do not buy this game.

A good buy for all baseball fans

The Triple Play 2000 by EA Sports is a good buy.

Baseball is of course baseball which means that the rules are the same as in baseball. But the game has a lot of very fine features.

The graphics are great. There is a good view of the different stadiums, the players are hitting and running in a realistic way.

The sounds are also very good, and the commentators seems to be some of the best compared to other games from EA Sports.

You have a lot of opportunities in this game. You can play a single game of one inning if you wants to, or you can play an entire season with playoffs and everything. If you want a short cut you can simply start by playing the play offs.

Trading players is well organised and very straight forward - so its easy even to a beginner.

The final words: A good buy whether you are a baseball fan or just a person who finds baseball interesting.

not very fun

I liked the graphics for triple play 2000 but the game itself is so bad that its frustrating.After playing a few games of this I decided id have more fun playing MlLB 98. With the MLB series for Playstation I dont know why any one would get this. This or Highheat baseball is te worst baseball series for the Playstation.

Way Too Easy

This game is fun,but way too easy.I have played about 42 games in a 60 game season,and Nomar Garciaparra has already hit 40 homeruns.In a 162 game season he would be on pace for 143 homeruns.I played a game yesterday,and I won 44-0 without cheating.I just couldn't stop hitting.I've won every game except 1.That 1 game was simulated by accident.If your looking for a challenge,this game is not the place to get one

at times extremely fun, but a tad bit unrealistic

TP 2000 is an all-around solid baseball game. The graphics are life-like and the players' movement is realistic enough. I used to play Hardball on a PC and am probably a little spoiled when it comes to managerial control, etc. because of it. I don't like the fact that you can not modify an existing player or when you create a player you have no limits as to how good you can make them (also I was annoyed with the rating of "Awesome" given to a player who has a higher than 90% rating in a given category). The game play itself is good but has a few annoying characteristics. The thing that bugs me the most is that the Computer, if put in a situation with men on base (which is all the time), will throw an insane amount of pick-offs. It really disrupts the game play because you will chop at anything the pitcher throws to the plate just so you don't have to sit through 5 more pick-off attempts. If that happened in a real game, the fans would riot. The capper, is when the Computer eventually picks off your man on first, which there is a good chance that that will happen at least once a game (sometimes twice, or three times). .......... The way the pitching is set up is silly: pressing X for a strike and O for a ball. They should just do what Hardball does and have a cross-hair that is easier to control the better the pitcher is. The homerun derby is a joke: on the easiest level, I have hit over 100 homeruns, at the hardest, the Computer opponent will just rock you by 40 or more. I would like to see them set up a tourney like they do for real, with a more realistic number of homers. The distances on most of the homeruns are ridiculously high (550 and what not). They also need to work on the instant replay: too basic. I'm glad that I bought the game, but really hope they make an effort to simulate the game of baseball further and not do more arcade-style action in 2001, which I am tempted to buy.

FUN BUT EASY

This is a very good baseball game, but it is easy to hit homers, there is little competition (once u play it for a while) and it is kind of annoying having to tap the button to steal and try to hit at the same time. thats why it only gets 3 stars from me. It is still a very good baseball game.
