MLB Power Pro Just Got Better Aug 09, 2008
By Marshal Dillon
The new version of MLB Power Pro, 2008, is the 2nd offering in the series. The game play and visual style is just as good if not better than the 2007 version. It still has that RBI baseball feel to it from years ago with the added depth of stats stats and more stats.
They have added numerous features including bullpen warm-ups, apparently this doesn't happen in Season mode, MLB Life mode, A new storyline in Success Mode, and they've changed the standard music that you hear on the management screens thankfully. They have added a few new announcer's phrases. I haven't experienced the mistaken play calling, ground balls on pop ups etc, as in the previous version but it is reported to still exist. The one complaint I really have is that non of the previous version's data is transferable to this version. So custom players and teams appear to be lost.
The game play is basically the same and you can easily just pick this game up and play it without much of a learning curve. One change I noticed in the game play is how batters who hold their bat slightly over the plate before the pitch are translucent instead of solid. In other words Kevin Youkilis' bat doesn't obstruct your view of the pitch if you are viewing the play from the batters' perspective. Also, you do not move the batter back and forth in the box to reach for a pitch. Instead the bat reaches out. This means it is near impossible to purposely get hit by an inside pitch. If there is a setting to change this I haven't found it.
Overall this is a great game like its predecessor. It's great for kids, teenagers,college students, and adults alike. I highly recommend it if you like baseball and or have kids who like baseball. It's a great game, soon to become a classic game, whether you play against the CPU or with friends and at parties.

Do you like baseball? Do you like weird Japanese Stuff? I do! Jan 29, 2009
By Michael T. Dunning
I bought this on impulse last year because I like baseball games, and it was only 20$ or so at the time. It turned out to be the best decision I made, gaming-wise, the entire year.
My title is a little misleading. It implies that you have to like weird Japanese stuff to like this game. That is far from true. It is certainly a plus if you enjoy JRPGs or story based games in general, though, because the best mode is Success mode--a story driven character creation. I spent probably 90% of my time making characters on this game, trying to get them to be as good as possible. This mode alone is worth the price of the game.
Other than that, you have a standard "franchise" mode which they call season (even though you can do 10 seasons), a life mode which is pretty much like the career mode in other MLB games (you only control your player, some off the field minor decisions), single game mode, and various mini games.
The players may look adorable, but there is some serious baseball to be had in this game. The AI is decent, and the player ratings system is one of the best ever. You cannot hit bombs with David Eckstein left and right, and it would be hard to bat .350 with Giambi over a season (on a reasonable difficulty).
The Japanese love their baseball, and that passion oozes from this game and the previous one as well. I'm so glad that 2k brought this series stateside.

Konami Sep 26, 2008
By Moonlight sonata
This is the most famous and popular baseball game in Japan.
Children, students, adults, old people, ladies, and gentlemen, all of them love this series for NPB(Japanese National Pro Baseball).
"POWER PROS" is known as "Pawamajor" in Japan.
This is the major league version of "Pawapuro" series.
Although game part is great, but I don't love "Pawamajor" or "Pawapuro"
not so "Pawapuro kun Pocket".
Pawapuro kun Pocket series are for the portable game hards like GB, GBA, and NDS.
So they have not a great graphics at the game part, but instead, Pawapuro kun Pocket series
traditionally have the best scenario or story in all base ball games.
I hope POWER PROS 2009 will be the nice story game.

Delivery Time was very bad ( Traveled from Wherehouse in Florida to California and then back to Marianna, Florida ) should have only taken a couple days instead of almost 3 Weeks...
