These little tikes have some game, even if it is a bit shallow.
小鬼头可以玩得开心,即使它有点简陋
August 18, 2010 by Nate Ahearn
There's no doubt that sports games have lost the simplicity that made them so
accessible back in the days of the Genesis and Super Nintendo, when player
models were nothing more than 2D sprites on the screen. In those days the
expectation for a realistic depiction of the sport was minimal. That has
changed recently and has sadly left the younger generation of gamers without
much of a footing in the sports world. That's where Little League World
Series 2010 (LLWS 2010) comes into the picture with its simple gameplay and
easy-to-learn feature set. There's no doubt that it's lacking in many of the
hardcore baseball areas, but as a casual title meant for newcomers to the
sport, I think there just might be enough to warrant your time.
毫无疑问地,运动游戏已经失去过去Genesis(Sega於1988年推出的家用主机Mega Drive
,北美区称为Genesis)和超任时代那种好上手的简单性,那时玩家的模组不过是萤幕上
的粗糙2D图件。当年对於运动真实度的刻划并无甚期待。近来这点已经改变,令新世代的
玩家伤心地失去在运动世界的立足点。这正是为什麽《小联盟世界锦标赛2010》以其简易
的游戏性和易学的功能引起人们的注意。而这点无疑是多数硬蕊棒球游戏所没有的,但作
为一款针对新接触棒球的玩家的休闲小品,我认为恰以足够保证花时间在上面是值得的。
The two most complicated elements for the MLB 2K series – hitting and
pitching – have been simplified significantly in LLWS 2010. They both hinge
on you holding and releasing the right trigger at a certain time. For
hitting, holding the right trigger starts a simple power meter that, if timed
just right, will get you maximum power when you release the trigger. Pitching
works in an almost identical way, but has been handcuffed further by the fact
that every pitcher has the same offering of three pitches and you can only
move the pitch's location right or left. Fielding is automated, your only
worry being to throw the ball to the correct base and making sure to wiggle
the right analog stick to light a fire under your players' butts (read: make
them run faster). If you can't tell by now, the gameplay in Little League
World Series is extraordinarily simple with only the most basic of actions
left up to the player. In other words, if you've never touched a baseball
game before, this one is for you.
MLB 2K系列中两项最复杂的要素──打击和投球在《小联盟世界锦标赛2010》中明显被简
化了。这两项操作完全取决於在恰当时机按住和松开RT。打击方面,按住RT会启动一个简
单的力量计量表,如果时机抓得准确,当你松开RT就能挥出最大的力道。投球也是差不多
的方式,但因为每个投手只给了三种球路而被限制得更彻底,你只能将投球的落点左挪或
右移。守备已经设定好了,你只要担心怎麽把球投到正确的垒和推动右蘑菇头好在你的球
员的屁股下生把火(也就是说,让他们跑得更快~)。如果你听到现在还是不懂,我可以
告诉你小联盟世界锦标赛系列的游玩过程超凡地简单,因为它留给玩家的操作都是最基本
的动作。换句话说,如果你之前从未接触过棒球游戏,选这款就没错啦。
Adding a bit of spice to the mix is the inclusion of power ups and talent
cards. Talent cards can be played at any time during the game to give your
players certain abilities or detracting from the abilities of the opposing
team. You can earn a binder full of more than 50 cards, five of which can be
assigned to any one game. These cards do things like lessen the speed of the
other team, increase your hitting power, and make your team run faster as
well as other abilities. You can see that the development team knew that the
gameplay needed some spicing up, but the talent cards don't quite take the
step needed to keep things feeling fresh after several hours of play.
纳入力量提昇和技能卡的设计为游戏添加了一些乐趣。任何时候都能施放技能卡让你旗下
的球员拥有特定能力或打消敌手阵营的能力。你可以得到一本满满超过五十张的卡片,任
一局赛事都可以指派五张。这些卡片有诸多妙用:像是减缓对方队伍的速度、增加你的打
击力道、或是让你的队伍跑得更快等等。你可以发现制作团队清楚游戏过程需要一些刺激
,但游玩几个小时後,技能卡的设定好像也没那麽新鲜了。
The artificial intelligence could also use a bit of work, especially since
the game relies on the AI of your teammates for so many crucial actions. Too
often players will make bad decisions when running the bases and there's an
interesting issue when the opposing team hits the ball slowly down the first
base line and pulls the first baseman from his post.
这游戏的AI也发挥了一点作用,尤其是因为在许多关键行动上必须仰赖队友的AI。跑垒时
,球员太经常做出错误决定,而且当敌方击出的球慢慢降落到一垒线并把一垒手拉下岗位
时,会发生一件有趣的事。
Another downer is the general lack of innovation since the game launched on
Wii back in 2008. Many of the same mechanics make their way into the Xbox 360
version with little changes to speak of. At the very least the developers
should have added online multiplayer support. Sadly all you get is
leaderboard integration and the same offering of mini-games to play locally
that we saw on Wii. That doesn't take away from the fact that kids will find
something to enjoy, but they could've done more to differentiate the two
packages.
另外一件扫兴的事是,自从2008年首次发表於Wii以来,这系列游戏一直缺乏整体的创新
。许多相同的机制一路延续至Xbox360/PS3版本,没什麽可以拿出来说嘴的改变。最起码
,开发者也该加入线上多人支援模式。可怜兮兮的玩家只能得到一张综合排行榜和地方性
游玩那些我们之前在Wii版本也找得到一模一样的迷你游戏。这并不阻碍孩子们在这款游
戏中找到好玩之处,但开发者该可花更多心思在两套游戏间做出区隔。
The only area that has seen a bump when making the transition to the Xbox 360
and PlayStation 3 is the visuals. They've been nicely bumped up into the HD
era and enjoy more detail, brighter colors and a framerate that holds strong
throughout. Granted, nothing you're going to see should push the system, but
that hasn't stopped other games in the past from experiencing technical
issues for no real reason.
移植到Xbox 360及PS3唯一可见提昇的是视觉效果。令人满意地拉至HD世代的水准,并享
有更多细节、更明亮夺目的色彩及全程稳定的帧速。我承认,你不会看到什麽需要在系统
有所推动革新,但这点并未使过去其他游戏停下体验技术层面的脚步,尽管没什麽真正的
理由。
Closing Comments
Little League World Series 2010 is a simple game that doesn’t warrant a look
if you already played the Wii version from more than a year ago. If you didn’
t check out the Wii rendition, perhaps this will bring some fun for you and
your little tikes. So long as they’re sitting right next to you, as there’s
no online play at all. The game’s biggest strength is its ability to deliver
fast, fun and, most importantly, simple baseball that’s been cobbled
together under the veil of a simple Little League World Series setup. If you’
ve found your baseball experiences stymied by overly complex controls and
modes, Little League World Series 2010 might just be worth a look.
结论
如果你早在一年多前玩过Wii版本,那麽《小联盟世界锦标赛2010》是一款不值得你一顾
的简单游戏。如果你没试过Wii版的表现,或许这款游戏能给你和你家的小朋友带来好些
乐趣。只是他们必须就坐在你旁边和你一起玩,因为里头没有任何线上游玩模式。在小联
盟世界锦标赛系列简明的架构下,这游戏最大的长处正在於能够传达立即、有趣及最重要
的,简单的棒球体验。如果你发现你的棒球体验老是被过度复杂的操作和模式阻碍,那麽
《小联盟世界锦标赛2010》或许值得你光顾。
Presentation 6.0
Menu design is pretty lackluster, as is the general presentation of the
Little League World Series. The strange inclusion of dancing mascots and
Brent Musburger doesn’t help.
表现 6.0
选单设计颇为黯淡无生气,正如同小联盟世界锦标赛系列的整体表现。诡异纳入跳舞的吉
祥物和马斯柏格(Brent Musburger)一点帮助也没有。
Graphics 7.0
Cute, bubbly character models populate the action that stays at a nice and
steady clip throughout. Details aren’t great, but they service the action
well enough.
图像 7.0
可爱、浑身活力的角色模组始终都能迅速反应动作。细节表现没那麽好,但呈现动作已绰
绰有余。
Sound 6.0
There isn’t much to talk about other than the wholesome periodic commentary
from Musburger. The ping of the bat is cool. Sadly not much else can make the
same claim.
声效 6.0
除了马斯柏格深具道德感的定时球评外,真没什麽好拿出来说嘴的。球棒的乒乓撞击声很
酷。其他的表现就没什麽可以被说酷了,真难过。
Gameplay 6.5
The gameplay is shallow, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t a good bit
for young gamers to enjoy. There are AI flaws, sure, but chances are this game
’s target audience will never notice.
游戏性 6.5
游戏性有点肤浅,但不代表对资历较浅的玩家而言无法从中得到乐趣。当然存在AI的失误
,只是很有可能它主打的客群也不会发现。
Lasting Appeal 5.5
There isn’t a whole lot of staying power after you win the LLWS crown. The
mini-games are identical to the Wii version and there’s no online play,
sadly.
耐玩度 5.5
赢得小联盟世界锦标赛冠军後就没太多动力继续玩下去。内附的小游戏跟Wii版本完全一
样,而且还没有线上模式,太令人伤心啦。
Overall 6.0 PASSABLE
整体表现 6.0 还说得过去啦
