    All Star Baseball....Weird Game


    I rented All Star 2003 this weekend for fun just because I cant wait for the new games, and I wanted to see what the fans of this game were talking about.

    After extensive play, I realise that I just dont like the game at all, stiff controls, the guessing the spot cursor system, and some strange bugs.

    My main problem was that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't hit a ball to right field. All the right handed hitters always pull the ball, and all the lefties hit the ball the other way. It didnt make any differece where I pointed the cursor or the timiming of the swing. I went to batting practice and home run derby with the same results. I first noticed it when I was in the home run derby in classic yankee stadium. The stadium was great, but I wanted to jack one into the short rightfield porch, but couldn't because of the wierd hitting.

    Anyone else noticed this? Anything that can be done? I have this game for a few more days and would like to get some kind of enjoyment out of it. I dont want to offend the fans of this game, but I think the game is lousy despite all the great details and options.

    I can't find a remedy for your problem. I do admit it is a weird game (have you seen any strange glitches yet?) The batting has been the complaints of many in the boards and we're hoping that Acclaim fixed them.

        For power swing there's not much you can do, but on contact, just tilt the cursor towards right field and angle it up, just not all the way. Pretty simple.

                It's a bug in the game. with LH batters to pull the ball you swing extremely late ( I know, it doesn't since does it) Try that!
