Toss-up between this and All-Star Baseball

I though All-Star baseball was much to difficult on the offensive side, so I traded it in for this game. Unfortunately, this one seems to make it too easy to get a hit. The graphics are good, though the bodies of the players are not always the right size, and it is difficult to get used to the camera movements when somebody gets a hit. The players' faces, though are usually very accurate.
Bob Costas and Harold Reynolds add a nice touch of realism (though Reynolds sometimes sounds like Chris Rock).
I like games where it's difficult, but not impossible to get a hit. Batting is too easy in this game, too hard in Acclaim's All-Star Baseball. My recommendation is to rent the two and decide which one you prefer.
Lets hurry up! The season is starting!

That is exactly what EA did with this game. It was definately hurried. EA left themselves an extremely low baseline to improve upon. I expect a better effort next time. If you love baseball you will still enjoy this game.
Disappointing

This game has a nice set-up, and had the potential to be a good baseball sim. Costas' play by play and the little cut scenes before you get up to bat really give you the feel of a baseball game. However once you come up to bat, the game doesn't deliver. I think I had 30 homers the first game that I played, and it got less and less challenging after that. I recommend that you avoid this game unless you like home-run derby's.
good easy playing game

i got Triple Play 2002, cause it looked awsome.
bought it at Best Buy on a gift card, and i love it.
the game is awsome, the music is good, and best of all, it's a very EASY and SIMPLE baseball game.
nothing really special about it. the players faces are AWSOME, and are actually more realistic than the faces of ESPN baseball 2k4 and 2k5. yep, Triple Play 2002 had better more life like face resemblences than the newest baseball games on the market.
the stadiums are all awsome and very accurate, including real up to date stats at Yankee stadium. there are moments that capture a big game moment. home runs and celebrations are awsome.
what i love so much about this game, is that it reminds me of Ken Griffey Jr. baseball, it's so simple and easy to play, not like today's games which are sometimes complicated.
Costas and Harold Reynolds do commentary, and it's awsome, especially when Reynolds sings Take me out to the ball game.
only problems i have, is that it does slow down sometimes. real small glitches where it seems like the game is trying to load between innings. but other than that, good game.
game also includes Barry Bonds and Jose Canseco....;)
overall, good game.
