Release Date: March 10, 2003
Another baseball game. This time, numerous improvements have been made to the product's visual setting. This applies in particular to the improved appearance and animation of the players' behaviour.
World Series Baseball 2K3 is another part of a very popular series of sports games. Unlike the previous version of World Series Baseball, which was released on Xbox and Dreamcast, it was released on Xbox and PlayStation 2. It is also worth mentioning that games from the World Series Baseball series were released on many other hardware platforms, including Sega Genesis and Saturn. Blue Shift is responsible for the production of this edition. Both versions of World Series Baseball 2003 present a very similar level of performance, although Xbox owners received a product with slightly nicer graphics.
This version has not seen any revolutionary solutions or new gameplay modes. These include, among other things: Season (full season), Playoffs (possibility to participate in the titular playoffs), Home Run Derby (possibility to play as former champions of this sport) or Exhibition (single competitions, played according to the rules set by the player). Big League Challenge is a new addition - it allows you to compare your achievements with other players. This is done on a dedicated website.
World Series Baseball 2K3 offers an extensive mode called Franchise, allowing you to play several seasons. First of all, the list of possible options has been extended, both for coaches, team managers and scouts. The player must organize regular training sessions so that the individual players in the team can develop their skills. It is also worth mentioning that the loyalty of a player to the rest of the team can change. It is very much influenced by our achievements in subsequent competitions. An important factor is also the number of times a given person can be placed in the main lineup.
Character control has been improved. However, it still requires a lot of skill and many hours of training. Thankfully, there are options to choose from several levels of difficulty. The game's visuals look much better than the previous part of World Series Baseball. The improvements included mainly the appearance and animation of the players. We can still count on a professional commentary, this time performed by Ted Robinson and Rex Hudler. World Series Baseball 2003 has a simple multiplayer mode for two people.
