Everyone needs to stop whining about small non-important issues and get to the main point: This game is breathtaking.
franchise mode is very deep and creates an authentic feel of the big leagues. an easy interface is a good addition that feels right.
the little things are what stick out. the beginning sequence is repetitive but still worthwhile to listen to, (while on the fact of listening, the soundtrack is terrible at best). having the small box at the bottom is a good feature that can be useful to read. overall this game is a remarkable game that every true baseball fan must give at least a try.
