Backyard Baseball 2007 Gameplay (Including review)

Heres some gameplay of me, playing Backyard Baseball 2007. Here im playing a match on All-Star. The computer took a complete random team for me, so the other team got all the pros, and even Pablo. :(

Review:
Personally, this game is not better than Backyard Baseball 2005. The thing that all are teenagers is dumb and they removed many of the backyard kids, including some I liked, like that guy in a wheelchair and Mikey Thomas.

The gameplay is simple, including new power-ups and a bigger field. Controls are also simple and you can again play multiplayer, where one is controlling the keyboard while the other is using the mouse.

The graphics also look alright and the music is okay, but they removed the fun commentators and replaced them with someone boring.

But the games big problem is the AI. Maybe The Ai is now trying to catch the ball in fielding, which is an improvement, but like in the older ones, the other fielders dont give a crap. Baserunning is the worst. They run even if you havent gave them the command, in 2005, they stay on their bases, until you ask them to continue running. Sometimes its also like your baserunner is running around, while the fielders are throwing from base to base to base.....

The game also rarely have anything new, beside from new players and fields, and the fact that they now are teenagers. Its still the same season mode and its still the same minigames.

It also have bugs and crashes which is bad.

Overall, Backyard Baseball 2005 was much more fun, and i dont get why they are making the kids teenagers. Did they try to add this game to older players? If they did, whats the point, many actually played this series, even as 18 years old.

The game isnt bad, but the older ones are better.

6/10

@totaldramafreak12 I used a program called Fraps. You can record in game footage and take screenshots using Fraps.

this series lost its charm after 2003

[Bajlum13]

I still think 2005 was pretty good. They maybe chanced alot of the characters looks, but they still were KIDS! NOT TEENS! And all the backyard kids were still in. Too many got removed and lost their personality in 2007.

How do you make the camera follow the ball after its hit?? i hate how when you hit it the camera gives you a view of the entire field. you cant see where the ball goes if its too far in the out field. its more important to follow the ball than the runner.

how do you get to play on this

[goluigi2196]

@12389jake i know right?

[goluigi2196]

@Bajlum13 some of the songs in 07 were good. but i agree. 1997-2005 were all the good ones. 2007 was okay like 6.5/10 on my scale but 2009 onward was bad. i wish they just kept the same gameplay as 01 and 03. but have you noticed since atari took over the backyard series, the games were getting worse and worse? atari wasnt involved in making the 97-03 backyard baseball games.
