Humongous announced today that
Backyard Baseball 2007 is shipping this week to retail stores nationwide.
Backyard Baseball is the best selling youth
baseball video game of all time, and the only one to hold the coveted Major
League Baseball and Major League Baseball Players Association
(MLBPA) licenses.
The Backyard Baseball game franchise, which stars animated
versions MLB pros as kids, has undergone a major transformation since its
last release two years ago. Backyard and MLB pro characters have evolved
into older, edgier, more believable athletes playing within graphically
rich, dramatic and interactive environments. What's more, the physics of
the game are finely tuned for more precise, authentic gameplay.
The game includes all 30 MLB teams,
uniforms, and logos. It offers single pick-up games, homerun derby, or
season play (with all the stats) and varying levels of difficulty.
Backyard Baseball 2007 is rated "E" (Everyone) by ESRB and has an MSRP
of $29.99 for the PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, and Game Boy
Advance and PC. Backyard Baseball 2007 GBA, PS2, and PC will be
on shelf this week with the GameCube games shipping later in the month.
