Pete Rose Baseball

Pete Rose Baseball

"Pete Rose Baseball" is a video game published in 1989 by Absolute for the Atari 2600. [ [http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=352 AtariAge - Atari 2600 - Pete Rose Baseball (Absolute Entertainment) ] ] An additional version was also made for the Atari 7800. [ [http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=731 AtariAge - Atari 7800 - Pete Rose Baseball (Absolute Entertainment) ] ]

Gameplay

The game was a notable improvement over previous Atari 2600 baseball games such as "Home Run" and "RealSports Baseball". The game features a "behind the pitcher" viewpoint for pitching and batting, a viewpoint which was introduced by the classic computer game "Hardball". In addition, the game features different "bird's eye" views of the field depending on where the ball is hit; there are two infield views (one for each half of the infield) and three outfield views (left field, center field, and right field).

Re-release

When the game was re-released by Activision (who bought Absolute's video game properties after Absolute folded in 1995) for inclusion in "Activision Anthology", the game was renamed "Baseball", likely due to the license deal with Pete Rose having expired, though Rose's gambling scandal may also have played a part in not using the original name.cn|date=January 2008
