A fine game, with reasonable graphics and a few flaws.

Triple Play 99 is definitely a very reasonable game. The graphics are basically average, and aren't too detailed. The controls are a bit more advanced when compared to other games.

TP99 includes all of the real stadiums, including Bank One (Arizona Diamondbacks) and Tropicana Field (Tampa Bay Devil Rays), except for the Kingdome (Seattle Mariners) which doesn't exist anymore, and 3 secret stadiums within the game.

Injuries are also included in TP99. Players can accidentally collide when trying to catch the ball and will fall over. Or players may unexpectedly have an injury while playing, and will require that you bring in a substitute. And pitchers lose their stamina faster than normal, making things even tougher. The game does have a stamina meter, and also shows a count of how many pitches the pitcher has thrown, how many balls, strikes, hits, home runs allowed, and walks.

The announcers have a great sense of humor. From time to time, they'll advertise for a product with a humorous name to it.

Even if the graphics are only reasonable, and the gameplay is a little bit more difficult, it's still a very good game.

A Nice Game Yet Homers Are Too Common

This game is a really good game, except that homeruns are too common. Also, the scoring is high. Once, I was Detroit and the computer was Tampa Bay. The pitcher was Wilson Alvarez. In the 1st Inning I scored 28 runs. Also in the same inning 6 players hit homeruns all in a row. (I traded for some of these players) Ken Griffey Jr.,Sammy Sosa, Bob Higginson, Mark McQuire, Mike Piazza, and Deivi Cruz hit 1 run homeruns all in that order. In that game I won 98-1!! What was that about??? The graphics are great. In Homerun Derby I was Mike Piazza the computer Todd Helton. I scored 29 homers and Helton scored 0 homers.

Another thing I hate is that I can CRUSH homers off of Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, but I can't CRUSH off of Mike Magante! It's crazy. Everything else is grreattt!!!!!

Extremely Fun.... When it first came out

When I first got this game for Easter I used to play it all the time, but now that the rosters are so horribly out of date it is not that much fun anymore. If you want a good game, buy the more recent games unless you just want to play a baseball game and dont care about accuracy.

Ok game kind of lame

i bought this game when it first came out, i could not stop playing it, thats all i did i was probably like 10. it has ok graphics except for some missing things like being able to throw the ball threw someone, the player looks like hes already throw the ball and a little while later the ball goes, players running through each other. other than that it was an ok game, sports games tend to wear on me after a while i think i would rather rent this game then buy it.
