Talk:Hardball! (computer game)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Release Date
I was just wondering what the exact release date was for the Genesis version of the game. I know the year was 1991 but I need the month and day. Pretty soon you will find me asking this on a lot of games. Fableheroesguild 18:01, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Hardball 5
I'd like to provide some info about Hardball 5.
- It was released for the Playstation
- It features historic teams with complete rosters
- It does not feature real logos, though the Seattle logo was very similar to the Mets logo.
- In the Playstation version, Oakland and San Francisco are misplaced at the top of their divisions.
- The game features trading, free agency, and minor leagues.
- It features historical stadiums.
- It features two divisions of historic teams: Legends and Immortals. It even has a Legends vs Immortals game in historic mode.
The reason for the historic teams with complete rosters and the historic stadiums is because of the lack of necessity for detail. Nowadays, stadiums have to look as realistic as possible.
Judging by all these features, I'd say this is basically an early simulator.
