This is a great game with incredable graphics and I recomend this game for anyone who likes baseball. All Star Baseball blows all other baseball games out of the water with its life like action, player movement, and sound. This truly is a great game.

Great game

This is the best baseball game that I have ever played! When I first got All-Star Baseball '99. I thought that no other game would come close to it! Then cam All-Star Baseball 2000 which was the greatest baseball game ever at that time. I thought that Acclaim could not do anything better because of the awesome graphics from 2000 graphics. But now, there is the greatest baseball videogame (at this time), All-Star Baseball 2001! I can't wait untill 2002!

Repackaged All Star Baseball 2000

First of all, I have to admit it is a great game if you have never owned a previous version of the game. I totally recommend it.

But now for you all that own the 2000 version: This version is almost a completely repackaged version of All Star Baseball 2000. Yes there are new graphics, yes there are 4 new stadiums (if you count a cornfield), yes there are new stats and rosters, yes there is batting practice and yes there are a few minor new features thrown in, but overall it is the SAME game.

The playing engine is identical to the previous version with no noticeable fixes to those many minor glitches like guys being able to run through players, players getting called out when they are obviously safe or players mindlessly holding the ball for a few seconds before trying to tag a sliding runner who makes it safely to base. I assumed that they would at least try to fix these issues before releasing a new game.

Also, being from Houston, I was real bummed that Enron field had two major omissions that make the park so unique: the flag pole in fair territory in center field and the 20 degree rising slope/hill behind the warning track deep in center field. It makes me wonder about the accuracy of all of the other parks that I have never been to.

If you own the previous version of the game, rent this one before you buy it to make sure you know what you are getting.

If you don't own the previous version, you'll love this game.

It's a Homerun!

The third installment of All-Star Baseball only secures it's place as the best console baseball game ever. Welcome additions this year are the Cooperstown Hall of Fame team playing appropriately on a cornfield diamond, batting practice and a better arcade experience, to name a few. The simulation mode for hardcore fanatics is simply incredible. You can micro-manage to your hearts content. The stadiums are beautiful and include three new parks just opened this year. The players look realistc but rather generic, although the big-name players look right. The play-by-play is adequate, although there is no color commentary to speak of. The computer opponents in a single player game make some poor baserunning and pitching moves but you have to pitch a good game against them, just as in real baseball. The multiplayer is good. The only real complaint is that the stats are somewhat skewed. This is something that I hoped would be ironed out in this third installment. When Mark McGwire isn't even in the top 10 for homers at mid-season, Randy Johnson isn't in the top 10 in K's or Barry Bonds is hitting .180 at the All-Star break something is wrong. If you can overlook that than you will have the time of your life with this game. The best thing yet is...NO player strikes!

Good Game

This is a awsome baseball game. The graphics are incredibel. This probably wont be a good game to buy if you own a previous version of the game. The reason is it has all the same stuff as the other versions exept 4 new ballparks. If you dont own any other baseball gamr you should buy this one because it is awsome.

Its A Grandslam

ASB 2001 Is definitly the best baseball game I have ever played. The grafics are great the players terrific and all three new stadiums are on the game.

This game has incredible graphics, first of all, and second of all, it is the best baseball game that is available! The only low sides to the game is the lack of clear sound, but who needs jabbering announcers? The game is here! You can also use a Cooperstown Legends team which is packed with Hall of Famers like Whitey Ford, Yogi Berra, and Nolan Ryan! All the rosters are current, even the Reds have Griffey, (Thank God!)You won't get bored with this overall incredible baseball game, buy it now!

Great!

Almost the same as ASB 2000, but that was such a great game! I accidentally lost my copy of that game, and was going to buy another one when I saw ASB 2001! I knew I had to get it. I was right! I recommend this game to any hardcore N64 or baseball fans out there!

You may not like present day players but this game has Reggie Jackson, Nolan Ryan and more although its cheats are bad without gameshark you can still have great fun and even have a batting practice at the cornfield. It's home run derbys great, the players look so much like the real thing I was shocked! The graphics are great, loads faster than many games I know and has complete updates on where players were. You can make a dream team which I for one love to do and get some of your favorote players. create-a-player not that great but still you can make yourself perfect if you know how. I recommend this as the first game you get after PERFECT DARK
