Tony La Russa Baseball
SCORE: 68
I like playing older baseball video games. Some are easy to learn, and others are like Tony La Russa Baseball on the Sega Genesis. This game is a hard one to like. The confusing controls were my first big issue. Please note I purchased the cartridge only for Tony La Russa Baseball. So I had no official clue as to how this baseball game controlled. Let me chime in with my opinion - really bad.
The graphics are small for Tony La Russa Baseball. Especially when we acknowledge this was a 16-bit video game. Tony La Russa Baseball looked more like an 8-bit video game. The sounds are annoying and also felt like they were 8-bit. Tony La Russa Baseball is not a good retro baseball video game in my professional opinion.
I had trouble hitting and pitching in Tony La Russa Baseball. The lag is what made it so bad. I had to anticipate pitches and guess if it would be a strike or a ball. Tony La Russa Baseball does everything it can to handicap the players. All of the major league baseball teams are in Tony La Russa Baseball. The windowed approach is neat. I would like to see this franchise return to retail.
