Gamespot score is way too low. The game isn't perfect, but its definitely fun and worth lower price than on consoles
I use both a Logitech Rumblepad 2 and a XBox 360 controller on my PC and haven't had any controller issues like this Gamespot reviewer had. The homers are enjoyable and satisfying (though when I broke the home run record, I wish the commentators would've mentioned it in the game).
The only complaint I do have with the game is the menu system takes a bit getting used to. If you have a somewhat decent PC; you want a good baseball game for $30; and you don't feel like shelling out $60 if you have a PS3 for a game that's actually pretty similar (some will claim The Show is much better, but I don't see it). Until EA decides to bring back MVP Baseball, your best bet for your wallet and a fun time with a baseball game is to get MLB 2k10.
