Bottom Line: it ain't good.
-The unlockables make the game interesting and fun.
-Extreme home run derby can be fun.
The Bad:
-Poor sound.
-Poor visuals.
-Poor feedback on the mound. Pitches aren't very distinctive and hard to judge.
-Awkward pitching controls. Why exactly do I control the ball AFTER I've thrown it?
-Ridiculously stupid advertisements. I dare not give examples.
-The game in general is just flat-out unrealistic.
This is most definitely the last game any MLB fan wants to buy. If the poor presentation doesn't depress you, the below average gameplay will. It's hard to tell why EA put so little effort into the PC version, as opposed to its console counterparts. Regardless, gamers will regret trying this game.
