I don't know about the demo, but in the actual game the load times to start a game or return to the career manager screen are *one minute* ... yes, I started timing them after a while. They ranged from 55 - 65 seconds usually ...

Yeah, the long load times and "somewhat" choppy framerate keep this from being the best sports game ever for the PSP. Still a very good game, especially considering that EA Sports has almost dropped developing for the PSP totally!

here's my tiny review of what went WRONG with this game.

my main complain is the career mode

Unlike MLB 06 (which is a great game)
*in 07, if you start your career as a pitcher in AL, you can't bat, you can't even FIELD.

*the default pitching camera is HORRIBLE! and you have to change it during every game.

*frame rate is HORRIBLE, 06 looks and feels a lot better. Go with the cheaper game please.

considering I can't field, I might as well go play Wii.

According to VG they've sold less than 30k units of this game in two months...now I know why.

I hate when people complain about load times. With the graphics the PSP is throwing out, there is no need of complaint

@kingofwale: You do realize that you can play the classic Career mode, right?

That is the most idiotic thing I've heard all year.

Wow this is a pretty sad attempt at a downloadable demo. Sure the game is fun and the graphics are great, but it only lasts a few innings and it forces you back to the XMB at the end of each game. That means you have to sit through the excruciating load time again for every game!

Hey, Yoon, thanks for fixing the link! Got the demo up and running and WOW, I love it, hell I love baseball already so this makes my night! The presentation and graphics are WOW, PSP really handles this game well. Now I need to buy the actually (full) game!

None of the demos work for me on 3.10 OE-A. Not Killzone, not Syphon Filter, probably not this. In the Game folder they come up as corrupt, in the game310 folder they lock up after the PSP splash screen...requiring I actually take the battery out because the power switch doesn't respond. Even before I flashed my PSP demos didn't work. Killzone still came up as corrupt even though I verified CRC values of the demo to make sure I got it from a legit source.
