They all have various superpowers such as being able to run round the bases very quickly, or having an oversized bat. In a one-off game by pressing various buttons you can access the EA Dream Team, who all seemed to be based on people who worked on the game. One of my favourite things about Triple Play Baseball 2000 is one of the cheats. Triple Play Baseball 2000 was published by EA Sports who are a company who definitely know how to put a great game together. It’s very satisfying when you achieve this and there’s a huge “thump” sound effect. Once you get used to the controls it can be great to attempt to score a home run. There are lots of other things that made playing this game a good experience for me including amusing crowd noises and sound effects. There are plenty of options, from playing a one-off game to going through a whole season to try and make the playoffs and triumph in the World Series.īaseball is one of those sports that can have a lot of statistics and it can seem rather overwhelming at first but if you can grasp the basics then the game is great to play. But because I remember watching some MLB coverage on Channel 5 and I liked the look of the game when I saw the review in PlayStation Power, I decided to buy Triple Play Baseball 2000.Īgain, this is a game which features impressive TV-style presentation with commentators Jim Hughson and Buck Martinez who like to often say things like “he’s hit it way back, this might bring rain!”, and all the players, stadiums and teams from the 1999 season are featured. My memories of playing rounders as it is called in this country just consist of doing very badly in the school playground. Baseball is one of those sports that is more established and popular in America although it does have a following here. This is another sport game that I have in my collection.
