They look alright, I guess. I'm not into the current baseball series, so I don't know how well they stack up..

That's a whole lotta GAMECUBE NINTENDO logos. And paper-thin trees.
Musashi Wins!
FLAWLESS VICTOLY!
Hmmm. Nice that there's finally some media on it.
I don't know, it's a good team behind it, but I don't know if their pushing the envelope still. There's a lot of competition with good games out this year apparently. If you could choose between EA and Sega on the GC this would likely be pointless.

I think he means body proportions.
I'm bumping this thread to tell you guys about some of information on it in the latest Nintendo Power (the above images are in it). Some of this may be old, but so be it:
-Game made by Exile
- Modes include:
Franchise mode
Exhibition
Playoff Hunt
Speed Play
Rookie of the Year
Home Field Evolution
-"Playoff Hunt fast-forwards to the end of the season and let you play out an historic pennant chase. Each club has its own unique scenario, such as the 1988 Yankees trying to claw their way back from a 4.5 game deficit with only 17 games to play."
-"In Speed Play, you'll hit and pitch as you would in a normal game, but when the batter makes contact with the ball, the outcome is automatically determined by the computer."
-Rookie of the Year has you creating your own player, inserting him on a team, and then using performance points to upgrade your character. The ultimate goal is to have your created player earn the Rockie of the Year award.
- Home Field Evolution sounds almost like a create-a-stadium mode, except you've got to earn points to upgrade. You'll begin in a sandlot and build up to a major leage stadium.
- Once your rookie or staduim reach their goal, they will become availble in any other mode in the game.
- Gameplay uses "Veteran C-stick Control." The c-stick will be used to add spin to the ball (but it sounds like its for a pre-released pitch), to pull a ball down the line, and to set-up a throw from the outfield.

Like the Pirates and Cubs would EVER be tied after at least one batter went to the plate for Chicago.

That is new to me and that Rookie of the Year and Home Field Evolution sounds pretty sweet. Those screens don't look bad either.
You just contradicted yourself. If feature rich does not equal value, then what does? It looks like it has as many modes as any other baseball game.
