Game Focus: MLB Front Office Manager Review

Game Focus writes: "Ever dream of winning the World Series as the manager of the Chicago Cubs? Then 2K Sports has something for you: MLB Front Office Manager, their first effort in the baseball management genre. Baseball fans have been experiencing this kind of game for a while now, especially on PC with titles like Out of the Park Baseball and Baseball Mogul (my all-time favourite) but no one has ever attempted to release this kind of game on the consoles. Sure MLB Front Office Manager is also available for the PC but we wanted to focus on the console version since Baseball is the first sport to gets its own management tool on a home console since NFL Head Coach. Is 2K going into the right direction?"

Pros

+ Full control of your franchise destiny thanks to deep management options

+ The game forces you to work hard in order to have success

Cons

– Bulky and clunky interface
