Excellent baseball simulation!

In a word, "Triple Play 2001" is superb. For ease of play, features, and graphics quality, there is no finer baseball simulation available. When I first began using TP 2001, it appeared to be only a minor upgrade to last year's "Triple Play 2000;" however, once I started playing it regularly, it became very evident to me that EA Sports had made some pretty extensive enhancements, and had done so without sacrificing playability or speed with increased system requirements.

Some of the more notable improvements to TP 2001 include: three Home Run Challenge modes (Tournament, One-on-One, and Extreme, (where you can choose some alternate - and very extreme - sites for hitting your homers); the addition of Baseball Legends (MLB players with 500 home runs or more) to Home Run Challenge; the ability to use your mouse, along with your keyboard and joystick/gamepad, as an input device for all aspects of the game (as far as I know, TP 2001 is the only baseball simulation to offer this); and a highly entertaining system of reaping rewards during regular game play. As always, you can play a regular game, simulate a season, manage from the dugout, be a general manager, and create your own players.

I've been a computer baseball addict for many years. "Triple Play 2001" is the best baseball simulation I've used yet. It's the easiest to set up, the most realistic to play, and...well, simply the most fun!

This should be the best baseball game for this year and for the triple play series. I'm a cubs fan and high heat has sammy, but i played it and it bombed big time. Triple Play is the most exciting game because of it's pitching and hitting modes and now that it's got Babe Ruth I wouldn't choose any other game.

I would highly recomend Triple Play 2001 to sports lovers everywhere. Although they don't have Griffey Jr. on the Reds, you can download a roster patch on the EA Sports web site soon. This game has great graphics, including realistic details in the parks and the uniforms. Triple Play's rival MLB 2001 uses ploygons, which gives it a more box shape. Triple Play has many great modes and overall I will give it a five star rating.

Best Computer Baseball Game You Can Buy

Triple Play 2001, like all Triple Plays before it, is amazing. I recommend the PC version over the Playstation version because the PC version actually has a more accurate and up to date roster. Also, if you own the PC version, EA Sports website offers a free patch sometime in late April or early June, that you can download and update the rosters to make them even more accurate. If you can choose between the PC or Playstation versions, get the PC version. Much, much more entertaining.

What an improvement!

The PC version of this game has improved dramatically as the players have faces and team logos on their helmets and hats. I'm also glad that EA Sports included alternate road uniforms, e.g. Mets black road jerseys and Blue Jays Blue road jerseys). I only wish that users can choose their uniforms, e.g. NHL 2000. Big League Challenge is a nice addition to the game. It's a perfect PC game as it utilitizes the mouse for batting and fielding.

Excellent for beginners and experts

A terrific game. In its "Rookie" mode it's easy to learn and play for beginners; in more advanced modes it's realistically challenging. The graphics are excellent and the action is realistic. Players can be traded or drafted for fantasy play, and there is a program by which one can enter themselves as a player with a scanned photo. Five stars all around.

Criticizing This Game is Pointless

I see all these reviews where people are criticizing this game. This is BY FAR the best PC baseball game ever made. The graphics are exellent, and you really get interactive with it. This game is really easy to work with and is the best of all the triple play games ever made. EA Sports created something really good. Perfect to own!!!!!!

TP2k1-best of the year

This years version of Triple Play 2001 is the best available baseball game for the PC. It is better then High Heat baseball by a lot, as Heat is simply boring. The online play in TP2k1 makes the game worth getting. Even with a 56k modem it is still easy and fun to play online. This game captures the feeling of the majors better than any other game.

Simply the best! (of its time)

This game is the best! But now TPB will overtake it. But it can, TPB is just the 2002 edition of this game. If u want to get this game, get it i cant stop you, but for a newer game get TPB. I am not saying the TP2K1 is bad, but TPB is better because it is better, so if you like to have up-to-date things get TPB!!!

Translations! TPB=Triple Play Baseball TP2K1= Triple Play 2001 (thought that might be helpful!)

Great game

Ok guys i will make this short. If your looking for a baseball game i recomend to get this one because the only bad thing here is once you have all the rewards it gets easyer but if your a starter i realy think you should get this.
