Triple Play 2002

Triple Play baseball is a awsome game. There is alot of action and it is fun. Plus it is easy to play.

Feels like an arcade game to me...

The graphics are sharp, except they seems a little carttony for the players. One big problem for me is the rather difficult fielding and even easier hitting--you'll have a 10 to 10 game by the second inning if you're not careful! And lastly, the game feels a little rushed, I'mrenting a version and it crashed on me 3 times :-( Not a good impression EA Sports, back tot he showers with this one!

It's a matter of opinion

I just want to say that after having read the reviews about this game on this website I was a little apprehensive about shelling out [the money] for the game. However, I have had good success with EA on PS2, specifically the Madden, NCAA Football, and the best yet, SSX Tricky from EA BIG in the past, so I risked it. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoy Triple Play 2002. First, the graphics are beautiful renderings of the various ballparks and the details help make them special, like people standing in the aisles, jeering from the crowd, etc. The skies are gorgeous, remind you of a day at the ballpark. Most of the negative reviews I saw were that the game was difficult? Yes, they all are at first, but what decent games aren't. But with time and practice you will pick it up and I suspect enjoy it as much as I do. To help me learn it I started by creating all my own players for my favorite team and giving them very high attributes (especially speed and fielding) until I got familiar enough with the controls. Then you can back off the attributes as you get better. Fielding and baserunning are difficult at first but make sense once you get the hang of it, and actually give you more control than the other games. You will love stealing when you make it. I found the gameplay realistic despite what others suggested. In baseball you don't always make it to the groundball or run down the pop fly between right and center field. You don't always get a hit or pitch a strike. Like the real game of baseball it's a little harder to play than it looks. Anyway, Bob Costas doing play by play...what more could you ask for? I found myself doing some fist pumps after striking out tough batters in a pinch or smacking a homerun when it counted, that to me is a sign of a good game. So I agree with the previous reviewers in that its not easy. But it's worth learning. You just can't beat the graphics, gameplay (give yourself time), and the commentary. Sour points: slow framerate at times, ball blends with white uniformed pitchers at times and you lose the pitch, I saw the names/numbers backwards once on a homerun celebration between two players, too many line drives caught over the head of the cpu, and Costas singing "Take Me Out to the Ballpark"...funny the 1st time. Other than that a great game. Something to pull me we away from Tricky for a few minutes!

Triple Play is one of the worst video games ever. I recommend not getting this game on a video game console. The computer game is good but not the video game. All Star Baseball games are much better but not great.

Worse than last year

There are less replay features. No camera angle choices. Fielding is basically impossible for any tough plays. If you want to play like Ichiro forget it. Trading players and signing free agents isn't challenging like Madden football. They are just "dumb" features that let you get all the best players. If realism and playibility are features you are looking for, skip this game.

BEST BASEBALL GAME

This game makes you feel like your at the actual game. When you play a season it's like going to every major league baseball game every day. If you play a homerun derby it feels like your one of the fans as during a single game or season game. When you buy this think about it before buying this game. When I got this game I thought it would stink but it's better than Triple Play 2001 because the players look more realstic.

TP 02 is BS

I can't agree more, with the other ratings I have read. I too find the game very hard to play in all aspects. Who would think
EA Sports would make something like this, after all the good sports games they have put out. In other words,who would have
thunk it...

SQUEEZE

I just don't know how the people can say: "Triple Play is a bored game" or "Triple Play it's a bad game, i think MLB or All-Star Baseball it's more good". I think that people don't know absolutly nothing about videogames, so please SHUT UP, if you gonna mean Triple Play it's a Bad game or a bored game.

Pathetic attempt at baseball, ASB2003 Kicks TP2002's butt

I wanted to see if EA could beat Akklaims perfection, but they came in wayyy below expectations. This baseball game is the worst I have ever played. Do yourself a favour and buy ASB2003.

This is just like all the other EA Sports games
