You can learn to read pitches, fine-tune the single-player controls to give you more room for error or tighten them up to make each pitch a challenge. Climb the wall to rob a homer, dive for that dying quail toward the foul line, this game gives players the ability to tailor their game from the mundane to the spectacular. Graphics: 9.2 There were some frame-rate issues when the resolution was popped up, but generally this game has remarkable baseball animations and the ball physics are spot on.

You won't quite get that just-ripped-the-cover-off-the-ball satisfaction earned once upon a time in High Heat, but you will get a sense of much-needed Major League authenticity that PC baseball fans have been missing over the past few years.

You have all the trimmings expected in a baseball game, and the action is quick and enjoyable, so much that you can get games in under a half an hour if you wish.
