About Basketball Stars 2:
I’ve played this game so much as a kid that it got me to love baseball. But the lack of ability to save your game means that you’ll never get to earn certain achievements that require you to play all games in the league, unless you leave your game turned on like the old fashioned way. Despite this, I still have lots of fun with this game. I feel lucky to have run into this on Steam. Baseball Stars 2 is a very fun retro baseball game. I don’t believe I played this game back then, but I am very glad the game is on steam and I have the privilege to play it. I highly recommend this game to sports game fans and those who play casually. The gameplay is fairly simple, but yet at the same time has depth to it. When pitching you can change the ball’s path and/or increase the speed. When batting you can move around in the hitters box to best position yourself to hit the ball, You can also steal bases or prevent the player from stealing a base. This is just some of the mechanics that you can do in-game, there is more that you can do. One gripe I have is there is no mid/between game saving. When you enter a game mode you have to play against quite a bit of teams and the matches go on for quite a bit. If you exit the game, that is it and you have to start all over. This is a bummer because if you play in short bursts like I do, it can get frustrating because you potentially can’t beat the game. I am hoping some sort of saving will be implemented in the future.
