106 · BASES LOADED
Here’s voice, action and graphics so real, you’ll believe you’re in the lineup. The characters look like real baseball players, not cartoons. The action moves at the same pace as a real game. Sounds real, too! The crack of the bat, the calls of the ump, the roar of the crown when you score.
