I just noticed Famitsu gave their review of Pro Baseball Spirits 3 for the Xbox 360. Reviews were 10/8/9/9 which are terrific for a Famitsu review.

Some videos for those who want to see what next-gen baseball is looking like over in Japan.

Maybe with the PS3 becoming region free for games MS might consider following suit. I would import some Japanese sports titles like this one. Well of course a year or so from now when I move into the next gen. Embarrassed

Not too bad, but it's not that big of an upgrade in graphics over what's available on the current-gen consoles (except for MVP 06 Shocked). The stadiums look nice though.
 
I still haven't been blown away by a next-gen sports game like I was the first time I saw NFL 2K on the Dreamcast. It was at that point that I knew I'd continue gaming for a long time.

Here is another trailer you can download in 720P

Wow just finished downloading and it looks really good. The animations are simply a thing of beauty. If anything it gets me really excited to what Konami will do with Winning Eleven on next gen.

Konami has added more gameply videos on their site
(unfortuantely the quality of the videos is not that good)

Also some screens of each team if you click on the two leagues at the top.

That's a nice looking screen shot. Too bad Konami doesn't have any plans to release a baseball game in the US.

I've been looking at this one too, but it doesn't look like it will play on US machines, and I'm not about to buy a Japanese 360.
 
Game looks great, though.
