GameZone writes: "MLB Dugout Heroes is a simplified baseball game that does have some flaws, but these are mostly attributed to the way the game has been simplified for any user. The players met in competition all seemed nice enough and the games ranged from extremely tactical, with base stealing and such, to blow-outs – both for and against this gamer. Still, this is an entertaining game that transcends the flaws and provides nice little forays into the world of baseball".
MMOHut, "2009 is coming to a close and while its been a troubling year for many industries, the free MMORPG market has boomed. I still remember the days when free games were considered second rate amateur products, how things have changed! Today even major Western video game publishers are getting in on the free to play MMO action. The F2P MMO field now encompasses more graphic and genre styles than ever before. Hopefully 2010..."
MMOHub's chief editor talks MLB Dugout Heroes with members of the Dugout Heroes and GamesCampus teams. Among topics discussed are the number of jumping catches, automatic fielding, and why Manny has a buzzcut.
MLB Dugout Heroes is a little different than most other free-to-play internet-based games simply by virtue of its license. Most free games don't carry a major sports license that allows use of real teams, logos, and players. However, the simplified and streamlined gameplay will remove any illusions that you're not playing a game that you downloaded for free over the Internet. The gameplay has been pretty simplified, so don't expect EA or 2K style depth to the game. Still, it's not a bad little diversion even though it's unlikely to keep most people hooked for long.
