This is a very enjoyable title. IT's a fun party game and it's fun single player as well. A couple of the minigames are a blast to play with a friend. The homerun one and especially the barrel game.
IT's my kind of game because it's easy to pick up and play yet has depth and lots of room to get better. And it also sports a very smooth frame rate, lots of polish all around and let's you play a quick baseball game.
You know I like that the game just gets down to the nitty gritty. You aren't sitting their watching your guys walk from the dugout. You aren't waiting for the game to switch back to the pitcher view after the opponent gets out or gets on base. It's quick.
I like sports games but some of them just drag the game out but showing too much extra details. Tiger Woods and Madden come to mind. This game is just good pure arcade fun. Unless you'remaking a career out of sport gaming this is the title to play.
The animations are great. The hitting is fun and same with pitching. The fielding, throwing and running isn't as fun as noted in many reviews. However I think most of them exagerate the annoyances.

Although personally i am not, and will not get addicted to this one, it is fun to pick up and play when there is nothing else to do.

I must admit I hate Baseball but this game looks damn fun, (I actually like Football but Mario Smash Football doesn't interest me as much) i'll get it if it's released in Australia and doesn't cost $100.

I was just playing that barrel mini-game again with a bud. It's darn addicting. Reason: Almost every game comes down to the wire because one good shot can make or break you.

Only minigames (aka practice tools) support 3 or more players.

I forgot what the mode's called, but basically when someone bats, wherever the ball lands will give them special coin bonuses. Most coins at the end wins. It's surprisingly fun and it supports up to four people.

With the few minutes I had with Strikers it seemed much more fun. Both are great games, but in terms of speed Strikers and Superstar are polar opposites- Strikers is surprisingly fast, Superstar is more relaxed. Whichever floats your boat.
