More Baseball
Glen and I wanted to try MLB 07 The Show for PS3 online. I had played a game earlier in the week and the other gamer quit because the lag was so bad. Well Glen and I couldn’t even start a game. The “network traffic” alarm kept going off. Obviously there was some sort of problem because other games played fine online but not MLB 07.
Needing a baseball fix, we decided to play Professional Baseball Spirits 4. We had a pretty lag free game that was exciting and impressive. The final score was 1-0. I shit you not. Eleven hits between us. Glen’s bunts were a thing of beauty but in the bottom of the 8th I got out of the only real jam I had thanks to a game of pickle. In the top of the 9th I was able to get a double and an RBI single getting me the win.
While I do enjoy MLB 07 offline, an English version of PYS 4 would probably be the holy grail of baseball game. It’s that damn good. I didn’t get that feeling of an online game since High Heat 99 or 00…damn it was good. Did I mention how good it was? It was a great game.
