Dove Worldview:
This Atari game is instructional as well as fun. A kid who plays this game and loves playing baseball in the backyard or in little league, will undoubtedly pick up some tips that can be carried over to the field. The "Backyard" kids match up with the pros and the kids can hold their own. Players can take advantage of playing a single game or a full season, and stats are available. The technology is better than on previous versions and another stand-out feature of this game is that the true rules of baseball apply in this game. Players will learn as they play. What a nice combination. We recommend this game for all ages and award it five doves. It may not be a console game, but it is an awesome PC experience.
