The third installment of All-Star Baseball only secures it's place as the best console baseball game ever. Welcome additions this year are the Cooperstown Hall of Fame team playing appropriately on a cornfield diamond, batting practice and a better arcade experience, to name a few. The simulation mode for hardcore fanatics is simply incredible. You can micro-manage to your hearts content. The stadiums are beautiful and include three new parks just opened this year. The players look realistc but rather generic, although the big-name players look right. The play-by-play is adequate, although there is no color commentary to speak of. The computer opponents in a single player game make some poor baserunning and pitching moves but you have to pitch a good game against them, just as in real baseball. The multiplayer is good. The only real complaint is that the stats are somewhat skewed. This is something that I hoped would be ironed out in this third installment. When Mark McGwire isn't even in the top 10 for homers at mid-season, Randy Johnson isn't in the top 10 in K's or Barry Bonds is hitting .180 at the All-Star break something is wrong. If you can overlook that than you will have the time of your life with this game. The best thing yet is...NO player strikes!
