Play Ball! (Among Other Things)

Posted by goodmind on March 31st, 2008

In honor of Baseball’s Opening Day, we thought we’d share our thoughts on Nationals Park, the latest D.C. debutante and the new home of the Washington Nationals. Alleged to be more of a hitter’s park than the former stadium, RFK, it seems more like a gamer’s paradise to us. From the Official website;

“Children also will love the selection of video games available to them. There’s a 15,000 square foot area behind right-center field — which will open three hours before the game — where kids can spend hours playing on Playstation 3, Guitar Hero 3, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and other things.”

Thought it would be nice to assume some of those other “things” include watching a ballgame, don’t count on it. In addition to being hitter-friendly, Nationals Park was designed to be fan friendly as well. When the starting rotation can’t locate the strike zone, fans at least will have no trouble finding the prominently featured PS3 Zone, or many of the stadium’s other diversions features.
