This is What Boring Looks Like

So I was looking for a baseball game on the iPhone. I was hoping to find one with an official license for the NPB (Japan), but there wasn’t one. Since the Power Pro brand is well known and usually good I decided to get it. Considering all Konami games were on sale for 99 cents I figured it would be a steal. It was, but not for me; it was for Konami. It was incredibly boring and lacked any sort of fun feature or game play. I think at one point I had hit over 10 foul balls in a row off the same pitch. *yawn*

I decided to head over to IGN and see if there was something I was missing. There wasn’t. I did pick up the name of a game that was everything Power Pro should have been. Baseball Superstars 2010. For $4.99 it is an awesome game and one of my favorites. Coming from Gamevil, the people that created Zenonia this isn’t really a surprise though. There is plenty to do with mission challenges like hitting a certain number of RBIs in a given time, to Home Run derbies, to creating and leveling your own star. Oh, and there is a season mode too. Everything about this game is incredible when placed next to the feces pile that makes up Power Pro Touch. There is a free version of BS2010 on the app store you can check out if you are a skeptic.
I agree with the 8/10 IGN gave this. After playing Power Pro I give it a 9.9 (there are some typos and small errors that need fixing).
