Kevin, we are keeping it simple but in for the long haul. We are talking 1 game a week for several months (5-6 months).

Thanks for the interest.

Need a few more for our ASB Online Xbox league

Now that all the games are out, I thought I would post this one last time. We are looking for at least 2 more owners for our ASB online Xbox league. We have 14 teams already and would love to make it 16. Here is a list of the league rules, if it sounds like something you would be interested in ...

HH2004 on ps2 for sure had this bug. I remember the dicussions about it, and 3do commented on it stating that when there was a hit batsman, a programming flag got switched to on. When this flag was on, this bug would happen. Hitting another batter switched the flag back to off or whatever.

That is ...

Hey guys, I am sorry but I need back out from this :(. I got too many other things on my plate now and I don't want to take a bunch of good players just to sit around do nothing with my team. That does not benefit anyone.

I can't find where to delete my team though, does the creator of the league ...

NoJoke, I think I understand you question right. You are having problem because you can't see your fielder, right?

I am pretty sure ASB puts and arrow on the screen in relation to your closest fielder. Just push your controller in the direction of that arrow. At least this is how it was in 04

I will say it again, easy and zone hitting are available online, but at the lower difficulty levels. Since I don't have the game yet, not sure what that means. But that info was given to me by Tom Green, the producer. If it is wrong I will let him :)

I am just afraid the lower difficulty setting ...

Bad, I replied to you over at OS, but I think it lost in the flood. Now maybe you played last years game a lot and you already knew this, but thought I would mention it.

Ok guys, I got a reply back from Tom. PLEASE, don't post this info anywhere else until he tells me it is ok to do so. I don't want to report anything wide spread that he could get in trouble for.

Thanks for pasting my post, Jack.

If anyone wants to give it a spin on Xbox Live, let me know! I'm very curious as to what settings we can change (i.e. no pitching cursors) and whether we can use any starter we like.

Started up an expansion team, the Brooklyn Aviators. It's great to be able to ...

Who was your catcher? I had a tough time throwing guys out, but normally I would not pay attention to them and they would get a HUGE jump on something offspeed :).

Although this will increase how long it takes to play a game, I have no problem with that.

That is also the beauty of in-game saves.

You know it :).

Good thoughts, but I think the Franchise Mode score could be included in a gameplay blurb somewhere. I personally don't care for franchise modes all that much, so I feel like a special section only on that is kind of a waste.

Except there are a lot of people out there that do care about it, and ...

Re: Couple of quick ASB questions

I haven't played ASB 2004 since last April, and searching through the OS boards for these questions is not working. Here's what I need to know:

- Does ASB use contact/power swings, or just a single button?

- Will ASB have any form of power meter for pitching, like MVP has?

On 3d cursor batting ...

Yeah, I figured those other categories (Graphics etc.) could be included in each section. For example, Joe "baseball is boring" Schmoe could write the review for the casual gamer.

Then Ed "Baseball is the bomb" Farias could write the review on the Sim aspect.

Then Bob "I am no thumb jockey" Smith ...

Should sports game reviews follow the same formula?

Not sure if this is as been discussed before, but I feel sports reviews should not use the standard review system that many sites use.

IMO, many people look for different aspects in their sports games, and I am not sure that they should follow the single "overall" score.

For example, maybe they ...
