Baseball Stars is the greatest baseball game ever made. Hands down. Somebody needs to start a league for it. R.B.I. is good for little children. (LOL. just having fun with you but it is true)
Shouldn't you be posting on a Baseball Stars forum, then? I'm just sayin....
i'm calling "DIE" on this one.

Now are you going to help me or are you just going to stand there like a slab of meat with mittens? Best 80s movie!
RBI Boston vs any team on Baseball Stars...Boston would win. Armas would have many 5-5 5 Hr games on Baseball Stars.
I think it was a good purchase by Baseball Stars, everyone should own RBI.

If I wasn't hungover right now, I would be laughing my ass off at this comment.... ....instead I will read it with an empty stare and continue to hope my head stops hurting.
Baseball Stars is good but RBI is KINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
I thought it was a post stating that the company which onwn baseball stars is actually the same company that owns RBI
One of my friends used to have Baseball Stars, it was awesome. Had alot of options, and you had to do good to get more money and stuff, and to power up your players. But, just like Bases Loaded, they use aluminum bats in this one, don't they? Wait, RBI uses them too, lol. That's probably why guys can get those screen-changing homers.
I have quite a few baseball games, let's see...
RBI Baseball 1, 2, 3
Bases Loaded
Roger Clemens MVP Baseball
Bo Jackson Baseball
Baseball Simulator 1.000
Tecmo Super Baseball (Super Nintendo)
RBI '94 (Sega Genesis)
Baseball (Game Boy)
I prefer RBI '94 over RBI Baseball, mainly for the tons of options, a sound test, and the home run derby. That HR Derby kinda sucks though, even if you hit a home run, you lose an out. STUPID!!!!!!!!
I played Super RBI Baseball once and didn't care for it... never tried out RBI '94, though. Does it play like the original? Super RBI changed the game mechanics a bit (it had a more zoomed-in fielding view that was difficult to use), which is why I didn't like it.
I got Tecmo Super Baseball with my SNES - it's one of the worst baseball games I've ever played. I stick with Griffey (the first one) if I want a SNES baseball game.
Bases Loaded 3 was awesome, if you're ever looking for a new baseball game to try out. The fielding was "upside-down" when compared to most games, although it makes sense when you consider the pitcher-batter view in the Bases Loaded games. As an added bonus, it was endorsed by Ryne Sandberg.
I think RBI '94 and Baseball are the only ones on your list I've never played.

Gotta love those infield hits. Keep them comin.
Oh geez I forgot about my Baseball Atari 2600 games. I have that game Johnny C, and another one, i think a pic of it was posted under a topic where it says '82 Reggie. That one kicks ass! I used to always play my dad in that.
It'd be really fun, and funny, if you had a guy on base, you could trick him towards home before a pitch was thrown. SLOWLY you could scoot forward, lol, or get in a pickle. And sometimes you hit the ball so hard, you think it's a homer, but it just sticks to the top of the screen, lol.
Does this make the second Atari Baseball reference in three days?
I grew up playing basball stars and have just over the last couple months picked up RBI. Well gentlemen, I've made a full conversion. The only thing that is a bit cooler about baseball stars is the fact that you can power your players attributes up. However that perhaps points out inadequacies in the game baseball stars, for all RBI players are fine just the way they are.
Tecmo Babeball is clearly the best baseball game ever made. I know TBT agrees with me.

TBT would never agree with such a statement.
I beg to differ, I don't think you paid enough attention to my post.
ooooooooooh, BABEball. Yes, TBT would agree. He would likely put his dogs in the BABEtub.

Ha, here's a refresher for those that aren't Tecmo Bowl obsessed or myself. It was the best spelling mistake I ever made.
Edit: I still can't believe TBT isn't going to Phoenix next week. What a fkn cock teasing bastard.
No, this one doesn't play like the original. They use wooden bats in RBI '94. There are about 4 or 5 different batting stances that the players have, well....about that many different types of hitters too. There's the crouched down guys who make contact, there's guys who stand batting straight up. There are the hefty home run type guys. Plus the white guys are white and the black guys black.
You can also throw spitballs. If you throw one, you get a warning. Throw two, you get thrown out, lol. There are little screens of cool animation in the top left & right corners too. If you do the spitball trick, it shows an animated picture of the spit dropping onto the ball (looks like a water drop), then you see the pitcher's thumb rub it into the ball, lol.
There are also beanfall fights. EVERY time you hit a batter, you get animated screens of the two teams brawling, and there's another one where one player CLOTHESLINES the opposing player over the dugout railing, flipping him over, LOL.
There's also a normal mode, obviously. But in options there's a CRAZY MODE, where whenever you hit the ball, it makes one of those cartoon type effects, pops, pings, and all that stuff. In the sound test mode, you can hear every effect clearly, there are tons of them. You know that one sound effect in cartoons, where a character runs in place, then takes off running, the same sounds are used in the game in crazy mode.
You can even create your own teams and play a season with them. And this includes players from divisional winners from '83 to '93. You can have a '93 Canseco and a 1988 Canseco on the same team!
All the ballparks in the game from the time are just like they were in real life. The waterfalls in KC, the Green Monster in Boston. The developers really spent time on this game.
It's definitely worth getting if you've got the Sega Genesis system. I guess emulators would work too, I don't know anything about them, so I don't know if they're downloadable as NES games are.

Oh, you might find the Genesis RBI Baseball ROMs (http://dee-nee.com/rbi/roms/genesis/) and a Genesis emulator (http://www.gens.ws) lying around somewhere ...
