power pro oddities: james loney is faster than kinsler and t-plush COMBINED nl east has no greats ryan braun cant play 3B even as 2nd position franklin gutierrez sucks at fielding moises alou has great BA and average HR, yet his contact is C and power is B nelson cruz isnt in it nor has a great based on him fukudome is way too good brandon phillips is super slow and finally... no matter how many flashy ps3 games with amazing graphics i play, none ever seem more fun than mlb power pros 08 BUY IT
WOW!!!!!! AWESOME video. Great music too. I just have to start a new season on my ps2 after watching this. BTW I like it better when you make funny videos. Thumbs up again!
jus to make things clear, u can actually swing the wii remote like its a bat and swing ur arm in a pitching motion in this game, cuz im trying to find a game like the one on wii sports but not jus for 3 innings and that lets u field and run the bases urself
This game is insanely awesome! There is practically nothing you can't customize, and its just pure awesome. Little League '08 is the next best because it has the best Wii Controls.
para homerun hay q poner el circulito chiquito por que de otra no te va a salir, y bueno me ah salido siempre poniendo lock on 5 aunque sigue siendo dificil si haces modo carrera desde ligas menores
@zninja1 At Least Mario Super Sluggers has better graphics than the game that's he's reviewing now. Also, I think this game looks kinda childish in my opinion.
I agree with your opening comments. I found MLB 09 for PSP to be completely unplayable. I got Power Pros 2008 for the DS and love it. As soon as I get a Wii, I'm getting both Power Pros and Power Pros 2008 for it.
This game is better than sliced bread and I love it more than Joanie loves Chachi. But MLB Power Pros 2009 isn't being released statewide and we're trying to get people to sign an online petition to get 2K's attention. Please, even if it doesn't have a chance in hell, sign it and tell everyone else you know to sign it as well. Go to google and search MLB Power Pros Petition and it will be the first link. Thanks!
The first two World Series games on the Saturn were kind of like this. Tommy LaSorda on the Genny was too. Just pitch and swing. One of the best baseball games ever.
there needs to be a stadium builder, since no other MLB game has had that since MVP baseball 2005, online play would be cool too, and it would also be cool if they had like some of the most renowned stadiums in MLB history *yankee stadium, shea stadium, polo grounds* the list goes on,
This game puts the supposedly "more realistic" ones to shame in terms of play control, options, and overall handling. The best baseball game I've played since days of Bases Loaded and RBI Baseball on the NES.
is it better to use the remote and chuk,old school controller or the game cube controller. how long is the franchise mode and if u bring up a player up to the majors from college do u get to play in the majors? thanx and great review
is league mode basically like franchise mode with a bunch of seasons. i want to play with a fantasy team and create all sorts of players and set them free into the free agent world and compete against them with a team that i created
Hmm, no one talk about Strategies on how to get superb batter/pitcher through Success mode. I also havn't found anyone gives out password to what they believe to be best created player yet. I personally love the game and would like to share my characters, especially the best pitcher I made so far: (for info about this character, just response to this message)
I'm open to talk about Success mode strategy guildline~ Use me ^ω^
I was happy with everything only to find out you can't play a regular game with motion controls. The only mode using motion controls is a waste and you win by who ever scores first
Yeah this is one of those games I've been neglecting that I keep hearing is supposed to be good except that it looks very uninteresting to me. But I know I should give it a try sometime.
this was a pretty informational review. I would think most gamers of this gen would be taken off by the visuals of this game(like me heh) I might rent it and compare it to Mario Sluggers coming later(nudge for a review when it comes)
As for the next review, I think you should stay serious, though it depends on what game you plan on reviewing next(for example, I think you should be doing a funny review on another kart rip-off)
Don't think I'll get it, I'm not into baseball enough to want a game like this. Something like a new Baseball Stars would be perfect for me, as BS2 is amazing :)
Great review. Glad you took my suggestion to do Power Pros. At least, I think you did... fuck it, I'm just going to assume you only did it because of me because I'm awesome.
I like it when you're calm and serious, reviewing the shit that nobody else wants to get their hands dirty with. Whatever, though, lol, looks like I won't get that.
I've read alot of good things about this series (power pros) I never liked the art style but If it could be played as wii sports baseball I'd say get it because I've never thought baseball games were fun untill the wii came out and even though it would take less technique to play it's more fun swing the controler in a baseball game than pressing the same button to bat and moving a joystick..........
