Take me out to the ballgame; take me out to the crowd! That is the
song that us baseball fans have grown cherish fondly; and it appears
to be that time of year again. And this year there seems to truly be
an overabundance of quality baseball titles for this baseball season.
Visual Concepts, has to beat out their extremely hard-hitting
competition, and they also must somehow top themselves from last
seasons stellar outing.
Graphically World Series is nothing short of fantastic; players
look like their real life counterparts, and the virtual stadiums
give off the look and feel of the stadiums they were modeled after.
The amount of detail that is in the player models is absolutely
stunning. Details are everywhere, from the players signature batting
stances and pitching deliveries, to the different ways the uniforms
wrinkle when they swing or run.
The animation in WSB is also top-notch; the players move gracefully
around the playing field making spectacular web grabs with eerie realism.
Slowdown and framerate issues in World Series Baseball 2K3 are virtually
non-existent, and every play runs at a steady frame-rate. The ambiance
that World Series Baseball creates is also amazing; the sounds of the
ballpark truly come to life in this seasons version. Although the
commentators are a little lifeless, almost every other aspect of WSBs
presentation is remarkable.
Gameplay-wise, World Series 2K3 is very solid. Batting can be done in a
few ways; first there is the traditional, for WSB that is, cursor method.
With cursor batting, you simply try to put the cursor on the ball and whack
it. Also in this seasons version of World Series is a timing only batting
mode, which is just like the name implies, no aiming of a cursor, just
good old fashion timing of your swing to get your hits. This leaves the last
batting mode, Power Pro Hitting, which is the most intriguing of the three.
This mode uses the cursor style batting, but makes you generate your power
by holding down a swing button. It feels very clumsy most the time, but
the Power Pro batting mode is a fresh new idea that might turn into something
more interesting in the future.
In most baseball titles of the present and the past, fielding is just a
futile exercise in frustration. However, World Series has taken giant
steps in the right direction to make fielding as user friendly as possible.
The fielding lock system especially, which helps you keep track of the ball
when you are fielding.
Pitching is probably the most disappointing gameplay aspect this season.
With a cursor you pick your spot and pitch, doing your best to avoid a
batters hot zone. The various pitch types dont look entirely all that
different. Sure curveballs curve and sinkers sink, but split fingers dont
have that looping feeling to them, and sliders dont break hard like you would
expect them to. All in all, the pitching in World Series Baseball 2K3 is very
easy to do; just not very deep or innovative.
The Franchise mode in this seasons version of WSB is put together to appease
the hardcore fantasy baseball number crunchers and the casual baseball fan
as well. With drafts, salaries, coaches and managers, and a minor league
system, they all help make this years World Series Baseball a pretty deep
and rewarding franchise. One of the new features in WSB this season was the
addition of crowd interest. What this does is it helps the more successful
teams to get higher budgets for the next few years, while making teams that do
bad year in and year out, have to slim their budgets down. This really gives the
feel of building a dynasty when you are playing for many, many seasons.
Also, as you should expect, the players in WSB develop over time and players,
mostly the older ones, diminish in skills between seasons. Overall,
the franchise mode is not overly complex, but still manages to come across as
a game full of depth. While missing some of the nuances that the more hardcore
might be looking for in a baseball sim, like the complete statistical breakdown
of a minor league prospect, every baseball fan should be able to find something
worthwhile in the WSB franchise mode this season.
If you are a baseball fan of any kind, you sure must check this one out!

1 pointless movie is ripped ;-) and the biggest part from the speech is gone,
because it was very very big, we still tried to keep as much as possible
speech from the stadium announcer, but from the play by play announcer everything
needed to leave the stadium :-P
P.S. we patched the game with a nice P/N selector ;-)
Enjoy this nice World Series Baseball 2K3 game :-)
