After last years disappointment, Visual Concepts has brought WSB2K2 back to being a excellent baseball series again.

A definite improvement over last year’s game, this version offers the best baseball on the Dreamcast, but "All Star Baseball" on the PS2 is still the tops.

When you consider the deep pitching and batting mechanics, the improved fielding aspects, the solid control, the awesome visuals, and the online play, WSB2K2 is one of the most solid baseball games on any system and a great sign that the WSB2K series is headed for an almost Yankee-like dominance in the future.

The biggest plus of World Series 2K2 has to be the online game mode.

Undoubtedly the best baseball game in the Dreamcast history.

Despite its frustratingly flawed gameplay, World Series Baseball 2K2 is the Dreamcast's best baseball game. Its graphics are top-notch, the gameplay options are plentiful, and its online play is a nice fringe benefit.

If you can forgo the glitches and some oddball lag online, you'll find yourself with a decent game.

The lack of a decent camera angle makes fielding a highly frustrating experience. Running under fly balls is not a problem at all. The dilemma is fielding the ground balls.

"But there is no joy in Mudville -- Visual Concepts has struck out."

This will be Dreamcast's best baseball game ever, but it's just as flawed and full of imperfections as the line-up of PS2 contenders.

The retooled pitcher/batter interface has some cool options, yet the defensive controls—this year’s big addition—are infuriatingly hit-and-miss.

The batting interface is one of the best around, but pitching suffers from slow pitch speed. Stat-tracking is much improved, yet far from perfect. It's rich on game modes, while online play so far is a disaster.

What ruined it is that the pitching and fielding are so much slower than real life.

Imagine Randy Johnson's unforgiving fastball appearing as slow as a change-up -- or his change-up more lethargic than Oprah after Thanksgiving dinner. Well, unfortunately, now you don't have to.

Well, I have good news! This game doesn't suck! But I also have bad news. It's not that much better.

The pitcher-batter interface works well but an enormous list of bugs and flaws probably related to a shrinking development budget are just too much to bear.

If the boys of summer took a cue from Babe Ruth and got liquored up before a game, the results would look something like this.
