About this product
Product Information
Backyard Baseball makes its PlayStation 2 debut in a game combining playground atmosphere along with real players and teams. The twist is that the ten "real" players in the game appear as children along with the rest of the sandlot lineup. Featured pros include Sammy Sosa, Randy Johnson, Mike Piazza, Shawn Green, Barry Bonds, Ichiro Suzuki, Pedro Martinez, Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, and Jim Thome. They'll compete along with 30 Backyard Kids, a combination of girls and boys, in the following three modes of play: Pickup Game, Season Play, and Home Run Derby.
Pickup Game has players selecting two teams from a pool of 40, adjusting options such as difficulty level, game length, and whether or not to include power-ups, as well as the home field. A total of nine fields are available, from a beach to a swampland to a junkyard. No matter which team is selected, players must pick and choose members in true playground fashion. Each character is rated from one to ten in the following areas: power, contact, pitching, running, and defense. Players can also create their own child prodigy by selecting hair color, skin, body type, accessories, and more before assigning a certain number of skill points.
Created players are used in Season Mode, where they earn experience points used to increase their attributes. Each Backyard Baseball season spans 18 or 32 games, with individual and team statistics tracked and saved to memory card. Home Run Derby can be played using either a pitch or out limit with up to eight players alternating turns. No matter which mode is selected, players use a cursor-based system for both pitching and hitting. Four available pitch types include a fastball, curve, screwball, and change-up, while hit types consist of power, line drive, grounder, and bunt. Fictional characters Sunny Day and Abner Dubbleplay provide the play-by-play and color commentary, respectively.
It's an excellent game for children and adults alike. I play this game with my 5 year old and he loves selecting teams. The players are just like little boys and girls from around the neighborhood... except watch out for the skinny little girl with the glasses she hits more home runs than Alex Rodriguez! My son loves that. Cool fields and animation when the ball is hit and my son also enjoys the way a pitcher can gain a "super pitch" every once in awhile. Great game and the price was excellent on ebay!
fun for all ages easy to play great family fun lots a little slow but overall a great game to have a couple hours fun at then it gets easy to play an ya want to try another game for to get your mind going again ya easly
I like that this game is rated E. My son loves to play baseball and at 10 years old it is getting harder to find games that are rated E that he would be interested in playing. It is a very cute, fun game for children to play, my husband also likes to play it with our son. It gives them some father/son time and they both have fun while playing together.
exact and correct discription of item, great doing business with. backyard baseball is a great game, and my children love it. Its actually there second game because they had used out the other game so much. Its a wonderful game.
I bought this game for my 8 yr old son, who loves video games.. I like this game because it is something he will enjoy playing and there is no violence or profanity in this game and that is something that is getting harder to find these days, plus I really like the fact that they gear this game more for kids!!!!!
