Who needs realism? While all the other guys slave away every year to make their sports sports meeting as realistic as possible, Midway has cheerfully chosen to make the wildest, most violent, and arguably most fun sports sports meeting you can buy. Topselling sports meeting like NFL Blitz, NHL Hitz, and NBA Jam are annual tweaks on the nose of sports gaming, yet Midway has kept the sports meeting close enough to the real sports they model to justify the expense of real player and team licenses. MLB SlugFest is no exception. It’s a Three Stooges-stylishness romp into Major League Baseball, and it’s crazy fun.
Presume our National Pastime with Bugs Bunny-stylishness pitching, runners who reflect not anything about clocking the First Basemen to extend their hit into a double, and hot players who burst into flame when they’re on a roll. If a pitch hits the batter he either charges the mound like the Hulk on alacrity, or he cries and crawls to take his base. Everything is outrageous and exaggerated, yet beyond the cartoon antics is a real game where skill with pitching and batting can carry you to victory.
All of the major league’s players, stadiums, teams, and logos are in the game, letting you really place the smack down on your least favorite team or force a perennial loser to play like brutes. A home run derby mode lets you practice hitting the long ball. One highlight is the commentary, which is hilarious. It consists of one smart guy calling the plays, setting up a gravel voiced idiot for some off the wall note. Whether it’s speculating how many candles you’d have to melt to make a wax Babe Ruth, or complaining about the taste of his third Styrofoam cup, the commentary is fresh, amusing, and it takes quite a while before it gets ancient.
Solid baseball gameplay and approach–amped up and turned all the way to “11″–is what MLB SlugFest offers players. It’s a splendid way to spend a nice spring day; mix in a small violence and flaming baseballs with your peanuts and Crackerjack.–Andrew S. Bub
Pros:
- Splendid graphics and hilarious audio
- Solid baseball gameplay beneath the asinine gimmicks
- Especially fun when played with a companion
Cons:
- Computer player uses too many crazy pitches and abilities.

MLB SlugFest 20-03 offers exaggerated, supercharged baseball action. Featuring real Major League Baseball players, teams, and stadiums, the game puts the emphasis on adrenaline and over-the-top plays. Enormous muscle-bound players take the field and go incredible defensive plays, including acrobatic diving catches and turbo-powered throws. While at the plate, gamers can dig in and let loose mammoth blasts clear out of the park. The animations are detailed to the point where you can view players on the field chewing gum, talking to one another, and cheering for their teammates. The game sets the tone with an original baseball anthem, “Riot at the Bat Rack,” performed by the heavy metal group Dry Kill Logic.

I have never seen a product this aweful… a baseball game where the players fight on the bases? Ridiculous. A game where it is virtually impossible to hit the ball, and any hit you get goes stright into the fielders glove? Unbelievable. This is the worst game I have ever played. Thank god I rented this, because if I had bought it I would have to shoot myself.

I am extremely dissapointed that MLB would lend its name to such a shoddy product. Pitching is not hard — for the most part — but the fact that the opposition hits the ball an average of (I found) 89.7% of the time is. Hitting is ridiculously hard — not only can the pitcher throw an infinite number of 107-mph fastballs without running out of turbo, when you in fact make friend (an extreme rarity), it conviently lands right in a fielder’s glove. Fielders are extremely slow, though their throws are accurate. This game is not worth the plastic its case is made out of. An extreme atrocity.
