I Just think the desire for true competition and variety clouded some expectations.

Oh that wasn't me that expected those things, that was just what I read from people on the forums. I think it had to do with the Take-Two connection. I didn't see anything otherwise regarding the Soriano thing, other than the video was up.

I dismissed the "quality" of this immediately when I heard it was getting a mobile release. Very, very rarely would a game get so much attention to be two completely separate products in terms of quality when it was coming up as surprisingly as this title.

Now, if this was a PS4/X1 only title, I would be flabbergasted. Releasing this game just would not make sense.

Well this is a day one purchase for me. Pretty excited about the art direction they took, now I just need to see some true game play.

To each their own, though.

I've said this in the other thread, if this game is as half as fun as when I played it and it's less than 20 bucks, I'm in.

Same here man....I was going to pass if it had MLB The Show type graphics, why own two of the same game? This looks like a complete change of pace and a great game to play with your not-so-serious baseball friends..

It's not trying to be a Madden or MLB2K or such, it's trying to emulate RBI Baseball from the old days, fans of the series in the know about that game will like this direction I believe. I'm a graphics whore too but some games are not supposed to go ultra realistic to appeal and this is one of them. Part of the charm of it is the simplicity both in how it's portrayed and it's control.

You know, like the old days of gaming when graphics wasn't the number one thing about a game....gameplay and fun was..

Seems like a solid baseball fix for the newly introduced fan, or a fan of the RBI baseball series. If the price is under 20 I'll purchase it. Seems like a pretty interesting game.
