This game seems to go for more of the "style" and "looks" to create the fun. It lacks franchise mode which really sucks. That is the most fun thing that MLB games have. The game-play is ok, but it doesn't really work that well. It's pretty much like NFL Blitz for Baseball. When you bat, it lags behind, and there is little to no strategy involved while batting. No hot-cold zones or batting technique. Instead it's "hold A for power" and all about timing (which lags). Fielding takes a while to get used to, but then again, so does every new MLB game. Pitching is probably the best about the game-play. It is unique because when you flick the wii-remote you can turn it either way to throw a different pitch. It definitely takes a step up from the old MLB games on that. But by not having a franchise mode, this game is not that great. It's pretty much a short-lived game. It can be fun, but I don't think this game will be all that popular.
