MLB Power Pros! I'm so stoked! I've played the import version of this game for years. I can't emphasize enough on how great this game is. The series itself has been running in Japan for about 13 years and has been considered the best baseball game in Japan for years now. What the John Madden series is to football here, this is to baseball there. I know that alot of people will see the cutsie characters and dismiss it as being for kids, they couldn't be more wrong. This game has always been well ahead of it's time and that trend continues to be the case when compared to American baseball games. Even though it's arcade baseball and has cutsie characters, realistic baseball physics and game play are very much in place. There's tons of stats, options, franchise play, and career mode(rpg like) play options that would satisfy even the biggest sim fan. Here's a little run down on some of the sports games I play and enjoy so that you can better gauge where my perspective is coming from..
I'm a huge baseball fan I cut my teeth on the following...
Hard Ball on the PC.
Several iterations of World Series baseball on the Sega Saturn.
High Heat baseball on the PC.
Baseball mogul.

OOTP 2007(out of the park baseball)
