4.0 out of 5 stars Slugfest 2006, December 5, 2006

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: MLB Slugfest 2006 (Video Game)

Obviously the previous reviewer has never played Slugfest before, this is how it has always been a "street" style baseball game, including more mature / aggressive themes, the ability to attack other players, and urban-styled in-game commentary. Amazon's description should have eluded to the fact that this is NOT a REALISTIC Baseball game.

I enjoy beaning hitters and wondering if they will storm the mound, I actually find it hilarious, I haven't used the season mode, just exhibition games. All in all Slugfest delievers what we have come to expect from this gaming series.

This review is from: MLB Slugfest 2006 (Video Game)

This game is funny while still retaining to sports. I like the on fire and punching tags. The only thing stopping it from being a five star is the throws. The center fielder can throw home without a bounce.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for Roster fans, August 19, 2010

If you want a great slugfest game, stick with the '04 version.
If you are a fan of roster collecting, there's nothing inherently wrong with this game.
