I think I convinced myself early on, that for $10, it was not going to have that depth. What I did want was......

Game play that mimicked Power Pros - Check

Depth of a season - Check

Decent rosters - Check

Have fun with it - Big check

So I am pretty happy with what I got for spending $10 on an arcade game.

Yeah, I guess I shouldn't have expected it to have all the things the other Power Pros have.

I really wish there was some kind of alternate controls scheme for fielding. It sucks having dive and jump mapped to the same buttons as throws to first and second base.

Also, a lot of times your guy will also be right on top of a ball but somehow he doesn't pick it up.

Fielding definitely has some issues.

That said, there are some cool little details I've noticed:

You can hurt your player while diving!

I dove into the wall chasing down a home run and my player had to be taken out the game with an injury! Funny moment.

I've had the same problems with fielding..

Yeah that's another thing that's disappointing is how they just announce the players' numbers but not their names.

If you look at the back of the players' jerseys, you'll notice that it also only displays their numbers.

The actual Bobblehead models of the players and "bobblehead" physics are awesome, though.

But maybe it's a good thing if they allow us to fully edit/create players and then share an Edit File. That would be the tops !

Can you mute the PA announcer? Looking forward to this once it comes out for PS3! Gives me a baseball starts feel!
