All-Star Baseball 2003
Overall: The graphics are average at best. There is nothing spectacular about any of the graphics. Espically, the XBOX. The franchise option saves ASB03. The baseball card collection is point less if you ask me?
Gameplay: Batting is a little tough but comes around with practice. Like most baseball games homeruns come once to often. Example: 16 games in to my first season I have 17 homeruns with Fred Mcgriff on the Veteran level (medium). Then when you do hit the ball it will travel in the same directions over and over. It must have 15-30 different paths it can follow. To Top it off the outfielders will catch anything if they dont catch it, it is because the ball will hit the wall or bounce it front of them. So predictable. One thing about the homerun fiasco, you know you hit one because it automatically jumps to another screen and the ball is gone. Running the bases.... %^&* nevermind its not even worth the trouble. Double plays come once every 2-3 games it seems.
Pitching is okay, nothing new same ole routine. Although, I do apperciate the excessive strikeouts.
Graphics: Graphics: Avg at best. Very yers wont even catch the balls with their mitts, during the homerun replays the ball will head straight for the bats it looks totally unrealalistic, all the players in the field are dull and lifeless, tons of catches are made over the shoulder, you can go on and on. Dispite its flaws its a solid game. Baseball Stars Had better Graphics in some categories.
Audio: Two Words: The Worst
But since their is a minimum of a 100 characters I will simply add, the commentators are boring repetitive and lifeless.
Suggestions: Back to the Drawing Board
Overall Score: 5.0 / 10
