Negative Positive
Title: Baseball 2K1 Disappoints
Review: Since this is the ONLY baseball game available for Dreamcast and we had to wait until August to get it, I am amazed at the disparity between the best features and stuff missing in the game. While the graphics can be truely spectacular (they got Nomar's batting routine down quite well) and what got the 2nd star, there are action features that have been on other platforms for years, such as fielding, that are missing. My kids old version of Backyard Baseball on a 486 PC doesn't stall as much as the Dreamcast does with this game. The ability to take an extra base, throw out a runner trying to steal and getting the pitch where you want it seem always to be subject to chance when playing with multiple players. On the whole, I wish we had bought a PlayStation last Christmas (they have competing products in this market segment!).
Is the review positive or negative?
