Played the trial. It's about as simplistic as baseball (stickball, whatever) gets. It's a more casual baseball game. That being said, I think it's the second best baseball game for the 360 thus far. That's not saying much, though.

But I'm actually on the fence about buying it.
 
Thanks for the info. I was wondering if I'd be able to play it. Sounds like I will. Not to complicated = good!
 
On the fence on this one...
Waiting to hear from other CAGs. Love my MLB 08 (ps3), and The Bigs(x360) from last year.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']This makes MLB 2K8 look like the best baseball game of all time.[/quote]

I'm gonna second this right here. This shit's horrible.
 
Finally got to playing the demo, it is awful. Big problem is the perspective for the batter. It's impossible to tell how far away (depth) the ball is from the strike zone as you're looking straight at it and it looks 2D.
 
Two of my friends and myself played this for an hour. The demo allows you to play multiplayer. Anyhow, I give it a 7/10.

One of the main gripes is that as the batter, you really can't do shit except swing. Other than that, it was decent with friends over. The game is so simple a fucking two year old can play it. All you do is press A on pretty much everything. That's why I rate it a 7. It's easy pick up and play.
