Aaron vs. Ruth: Battle of the Big Bats (1997)
Genres:Sport
Themes:Fantasy, Historical, Non-fiction
Story:"Aaron vs. Ruth: Battle of the Big Bats" brings baseball's all time greatest players to life. You can battle against the computer or head to head against a friend in Exhibition, Season and Series games in historical ballparks like Ebbets Field and the Polo grounds. This game combines old time traditions (Home Run Derby, baggy uniforms, manual scoreboards, echoing announcer), and modern day baseball (radar gun, pitch location screen, updated pitcher/batter reports).
Another feature is that some of these superstars use their actual motions. See Willie Stargell's famous batting style, Juan Marichal's high leg kick delivery, and Babe Ruth's home run trot, just to name a few.Show more

Jet Set Radio HDJet Set Radio HD is the latest remaster in a string of Dreamcast "hits" to see new life on download platforms, but Sega has been insistent that they've learned its lessons. The publisher has emphasized how hard it's trying to get things right this time, and for many, it couldn't have chosen a better game.
Jet Set Radio was part of Sega's onslaught of new properties with an emphasis on flash and style during the second wave of Dreamcast software, but it might be one of the more obscure. It's a game that almost everyone has heard of, but I think few have actually played. This was remedied somewhat with 2002's Xbox sequel Jet Set Radio Future. Unlike Sonic Adventure or the arcade hit Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio HD is the chance for many to finally play a game they've only heard about.
Nostalgia has the side effect of high expectations though, and Jet Set Radio HD just can't meet them. While the flash and style of Jet Set Radio HD remains untouched and unvarnished by a dozen years of progress, the rest of it can't stand up to scrutiny. Squirrely controls, camera catastrophes, and nonsensical level design make Jet Set Radio HD a better memory than game.Action
