I also liked it when the playoff schedules were unique from everything else in the game, as opposed to just looking like more of the same. It definitely makes the menus easier to navigate, although I personally prefer the cartoony look of the older menus.
Most of the menus also have a very streamlined look, with the team creation page looking almost no different from the roster page. There is now a navigation bar at the bottom of every screen with a forward and back arrow, and it has text that explains the current button you are hovering over. Some of the updates work great, and some others.don't.įirst and foremost, the menu system got a total overhaul. Now that the major sports licenses were acquired, it was time to go back and update the previous two games. Players do move differently on different fields, slower on sand and faster on turf. The game features pretty simple menus, baseball cards of all the players, rosters and schedules, a system of "Good & Bad Days" that alter players' stats (one person may not like Tuesdays, or be much better when a particular person is on the other team, etc). And, as with Backyard Sports titles, there are power-ups: pitches like the Big Freeze, Corkscrew, or Elevator. There's even batting practice, from Tee-ball to Hard difficulties, and a Spectator mode to let two teams duke it out while you watch. Play a single game, or an entire season (winning pennants and trophies and maybe getting into the Hall of Fame), or even online against other BB2001 players.
Pick a Backyard Sports team or create your own, or pick from 30 licensed MLB teams (with uniforms and logos). As coach, you pick from either the 30 fictitious Backyard Kits, 31 real major league players portrayed as kids, or both.
