PRETTY GOOD BUT A LITTLE FRUSTRATING

I liked this game but it was very frustrating. The frustrating
thing was the controls. When I pressed the button to throw home
it would throw to the pitcher or to 2nd base. But other than that this was a good game. You control the outfielders and decide were to throw. You can pick what kind of pitch to throw
and if you strike some one out you get a power up like elevator or cork screw. When hitting you can pick when to swing and how to hit it(power,line drive,grounder,or bunt). You can also get power ups like aluminum bat or undergrounder.

THE BEST GAME EVER! READ THIS FIRST!

YOU ALL KNOW THAT BACKYARD BASEBALL IS ON THE PC TOO, AND ITS AWESOME, ALONG WITH BACKYARD BASEBALL FOR GBA. ITS JUST ABOUT THE SAME, EXCEPT FOR A FEW THINGS, HERES SOME OF THEM, ABOUT HALF OF THE PLAYERS STATS HAVE CHANGED, EX. PUJOLS, EVERYTHING IS 8 OUT OF 10. HERE THERE IS A BUTTON FOR SLIDING, IT COMES IN HANDY. EX. ON THE PC VERSION, PRETEND SOSA IS UP AND PETE IS ON 1ST BASE, AND YOU TELL PETE TO STEAL, AND THEN TELL HE TO GO BACK AND HE DOESN`T LISTEN AND SLIDES AND GETS OUT, AND SOSA HITS THE HOMER WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN A TWO RUN HOMER AND ONLY IS ONE, IN THIS GAME YOU TELL HIM WHEN TO SLIDE SO IN THAT CASE IT WOULD BE A 2 RUN HOMER, THE A BUTTON IS TO RUN AND B IS TO GO BACK ITS THAT EASY OR IT CAN BE SWITCHED AROUND IN ANOTHER CASE LIKE B IS TO RUN AND A IS TO GO BACK, AND R TO SLIDE. YOU CAN ACUALLY JUST SLIDE FROM BASE TO BASE, NOT IN ONE SLIDE THOUGH, YOU CAN EVEN SLIDE TO FIRST BASE, AND IN THE MLB YOU CAN`T. THIS ALSO HAS HOME RUN DERBY, YOU CAN DO 10 PITCHES, 20 PITCHES, 1 MINUTE, 2 MINUTES ETC. AND YOU PICK THE FIELD, AND YOU CAN CHALLENGE THE COMPUTER, IF YOU DON`T ITS KINDA LIKE BATTING PRACTICE. YOUR ALSO ALOUD TO MAKE UP TO 3 CUSTOM PLAYERS, AND THE MORE GAMES HE/SHE PLAYS THE MORE STATS HE/SHE GETS, YOU PICK WHERE THEY GO, BATTING, RUNNING, PITCHING, OR FIELDING. AND YOU CAN CHALLENGE YOUR FRIENDS IN SINGLE GAMES, HOME-RUN DERBY, AND TRADE YOUR CUSTOM PLAYERS WITH A LINK CABLE, AND REMEMBER, ALL YOU NEED IS ONE GAME PAK, BUT YOU NEED TWO TO TRADE YOU CUSTOM PLAYERS. THE ONE DOWNSIDE IS THAT SOME OF THE STATS AREN`T FAIR, LIKE CARLOS DELGADO, TODD HELTON, JIM THOME, PHIL NEVIN ETC. I JUST HAD TO WRITE THIS REVIEW BECAUSE I WANT EVERYONE TO LIKE AND KNOW ABOUT THIS AWESOME GAME, ...

This is a fun game but where you get pros a a good thing, the bad thing is this game gets too easy too quick! Nothing challenges the baseball until the play-offs. This game hold no interest and you can save only one file at a time. This game was made in a rush so don't expect too much from this game. I'm out!

Seriously

Barkyard Baseball, Football, Basketball, and Soccer are all musts for kids who like sports. They include lots of kids to pick from that kids can relate to real people. Some of their names are, Sidney Weber, Amir Chan, Pablo Sanchez, and Jocinda Smith. Plus you are treated to a list of thirty pros straight out or the majors. Unlike backyard Football that only has ten pros and basketball that only has two. This game has a two-player mode and a home run derby for fun on the run. For sports kids this is a must. Trust me, I'm a kid too.

Finally a Diverse Video Game

I really enjoy this game, not only because it is fun to play, but because of how diverse this game is. There is a player who is on a wheel chair (not to mention is also an excellent ball player), they're girl ball players, the name of some of the characters come from a Hispanic, Russian, German, Japanese, etc backgrounds. Ball players that are various sizes, tall, short, skinny, etc. This video game has it all. This game is a definate buy and should belong to everyone's game collection.

GREAT GAME

If you really love sports games and have played the featured backyard baseball for the PC and liked it then you will absolutely love this game. It has great graphics and alot of new features. The controls are simple and easy to get used to and learn. I highly suggest that you buy this game as soon as possible. I give it a rank of five stars.

Still providing hours of fun
