  • Hardball 6 (1998/PC)
    Game intro w/2 innings of game play
    I am running this game on PCem (emulation), basic system settings below:
    -PCemV16 (PC/OS emulation software)
    -WindowsME (Millenium Edition)
    -[Socket] Shuttle HOT-557
    -Intel Pentium MMX200
    -128 (memory)
    -MindScape 3D emulation
    -Soundblaster 16
    Link to PCem for those that are interested:
    pcem-emulator....
    The physical game discs run rather choppy on PCem, recommend making an ISO copy of your game disc for use with PCem for smooth performance.

    Was the first baseball game I've owned. Was also a struggle to get my hands on it in South Africa. Made me fall in love with baseball. Was such a huge Jim Thome and Indians fan haha

    Thank you for posting this. A wonderful bit of nostalgia. Crazy to watch this game that I used to grind as a kid and thought was amazing, then go play The Show. We’ve come a long way that’s for sure.

    Kinda like polygraph graphics I guess it's way better than stick figure graphics like in 1995 to 2003

    Haven't played this game in ages! I remember enjoying the menu music so much, especially the second, more relaxed one that would come on.

    I remember getting annoyed with all the times runners would get thrown out at first by the right fielder after what in real life should be a routine single. Pickoffs were also impossible, but that's true for most baseball games (at least the ones I've played up to that time).
    This game had some realism/dimensional/physics issues like above, but I still had a lot of fun building up a team. Unfortunately it was a bit easy to end up with an overpowered team that would walk over everybody.

    That was the first baseball game I ever owned I got it when I was 13 years old. At the time the year was 2000 and I had a Gateway computer that ran Windows 98. I'm 34 years old now and I have RBI 21 on switch

      I got this game in 2000 when I was 36. Still playing games at 59 and play Super Mega Baseball 3.

    I had a demo version of Hardball 5 and I must say the graphic really deteriorated in HB6 compared to HB5.

      It was the move to 3D. A lot of unattractive games from that transitional era.

    How did you get this to work without stuttering? I tried this with my actual disc and an iso in a virtual machine. But the stuttering makes it unplayable. Couldn't get it to work on windows 10 either.

      I was able to get it running smoothly on on PCem. I tried other VM's but none work as good as PCem. Here are the specs/setting I used:
      -PCemV16 (PC/OS emulation software)
      -WindowsME (Millenium Edition)
      -[Socket] Shuttle HOT-557
      -Intel Pentium MMX200
      -128 (memory)
      -MindScape 3D emulation
      -Soundblaster 16

      It definitely won't run on Windows 10 without a VM, and again the only good VM to use is PCem. Other than that this game is ultra finicky and only runs on Win 95, 98 or ME.
