INTRODUCTION
Go Deep with World Series
®
Baseball
World Series Baseball, the celebrated arcade and home console
title from Sega Sports, makes the highly anticipated jump to the
Xbox
™
this spring. This year’s version of WSB is the great-looking,
great-playing baseball sim that Xbox owners have been waiting for.
Here’s just a sampling of what you’ll find:
• In-Depth Franchise Mode – Play an unlimited number of
seasons as you build your own diamond dynasty. Control
everything from the starting lineup and pitching rotation to
free agent signings and player development.
• Highly Detailed Player Models – Lifelike faces featuring
actual head scans of today’s stars and player-specific accessories
like sweatbands, sunglasses, batting gloves, etc.
• The Hall of Fame™ Legends Team – Play as the
“Cooperstown Legends” - a collection of 25 Hall of Famers,
including Warren Spahn, Ernie Banks, Reggie Jackson,
Nolan Ryan and more.
• Old School Unis – Remember when day-glo orange,
brown and yellow were thought to be great uniform colors?
No? Well then turn back the clock with a collection of classic
uniforms, including the Brooklyn Dodger grays, the green and
yellow of the early ‘70s “Swingin’ A’s” and, of course, those
god-awful Astros uniforms of the ‘70s and ‘80s.
• All-New Commentary – Sega Sports continues to set the
standard in videogame commentary, this time featuring a
dynamic two-man booth of New York Mets play-by-play man
Ted Robinson and former All-Star pitcher and current San
Francisco Giants color commentator Mike Krukow.
