    The email system is the new way that an owner is given important breaking information, trade requests. The system is absolutely dynamite...The premiere text baseball sim on the market. Check it out.
  2. The best baseball game around period. Graphics can only do so much and this simulation is top notch in gameplay and delivery. If you are an avid baseball fan you need to check out this game.
  3. A refreshing break from typical graphics-oriented games.
  4. Addictive as a single-player experience and flat-out irresistible while playing in an online league, it shouldn't be missed.

    This game has it all, is about as close to perfect as I have seen. Very flexible for the user.

    I've never been a big fan of baseball sims, and have seen most of them fail. But this is one of the best ever, with e-mail notifications and other neat stuff. Since I'm not a huge fan of these kinds of games, it's only an eight, but a respectable one at that. Expand
