The Game

Josh Spence
Josh has a PlayStation 3 console and he offered to take the game
home and check it out ... and 'translate' by trial-and-error what the
Japanese on-screen instructions are saying !!
He got it up and running perfectly and then made up the video below
Appreciate you taking the time to do this, Josh

Video Running Time Segment Details
   
0 minute 00 second--to--1 minute 23 second Josh has the game set up on his computer and you can see him starting it up ... this section includes the promotional video released by Konami
   
1 minute 24 second--to--2 minute 29 second The game has two sections ... the Japanese Baseball League and the 2009 World Baseball Classic ... and the Classic is selected ... going through the teams, Australia will be playing against China
   
2 minute 30 second--to--4 minute 10 second Next come the lineups ... Brett is batting at #6 and is the designated hitter in the game
   
4 minute 11 second--to--5 minute 52 second A stadium shot to open followed by the team introductions ... the top of the first innings is played with Oeltjen, Hughes and Snelling going 'three-up-three-down'
   
5 minute 53 second--to--9 minute 36 second China now come in to bat and score one run ... pitching for Australia is Anderson ... as Brett is the designated hitter, he is not in the fielding lineup
   
9 minute 37 second--to--11 minute 39 second Australia batting ... again it is 'three-up-three-down' starting with Huber and Risinger and followed by Brett as the third out with a high fly ball to second base
   
11 minute 40 second--to--11 minute 45 second Anderson is again pitching to China as they start their second innings

It all looks very realistic !! ... and after watching the video below, it seems like it would be a great game to play
once you got used to the Japanese language commentary and on-screen displays

BUT

having seen the screenshots on THIS page before the game was delivered, I was looking forward to seeing Brett in the game

It is disappointing that a "generic player" was used for both the Australian and Chinese Teams and not an actual likeness

VIDEO

Running time = 11 minutes 45 seconds

NOTE - this is a large file being 38.60Mb and it is in the 'flash-flv' video format
depending upon the speed on your internet connection, it could stop-and-start as it plays through the first time
if that does happen, simply play it again and it will run through perfectly
