    Re: ASB 2004 has it all!

    I wanted ASB also, but I haven't heard one person ANYWHERE say they paid any attention to gameplay. They have a good following and the game sells good and IMO, that is when they stop changing games for the better. I have heard a million features that were added AGAIN, and not one addresses the gameplay bugs that have plagued ASB since it's next-gen inception.
    Give me ASB N64, the gameplay was better there.

        What was so great about WSB gameplay?

        If I threw fastballs down the middle every pitch I could still shut out the computer. I guess I just don't understand why people think the gameplay is so unbelievable.

        Dont get me wrong ASB is no were near perfection either, I'm really not a big fan of ASB but I'll probably get it since its the first game coming out for XBOX.

            He is right, the AI was terrible on WSB last year, but Fatpitcher said it is much improved and said he was getting whacked by the CPU this year.
            And don't forget the sliders, they should adjust anything you have problems with it.
            ASB could use some sliders IMO.
            Or you could do like I do and use the Reds who have one of the worst pitching staffs in the league!
            That is why I like HH, they don;t promise you anything and you know the graphics are subpar, but you are guaranteed the gameplay is right, it always has been in HH IMO.

                WSB's gameplay was a bit lacking last year but it still was better than ASB's, which is a game that has been out for 3-4 years. This year is huge for Sega IMO. 3DO needs a great showing too.

                    All the features don't mean squat when the gameplay sucks.

                        I think the gameplay of High Heat and WSB will be more realistic (especially with the ability to tune the AI), and that's the most important thing for me. However, I will be buying ASB for the Xbox for the following reasons:

                        1) It's the first game out on the Xbox....who knows when High Heat will come out since it hasn't even been through quality assurance and WSB and MVP aren't coming out until later in March.

                        2) It is supposed to have system link in the Xbox version which means online head-to-head play in Xbconnect and Gamespy. As well as downloadable content through Live...which High Heat may have but WSB and MVP won't have anything of the sort.

                            It's quite amazing to me how people can say this game has better gameplay then that game when nobody on these boards for the exception of Steve (MVP beta copy) and the developers who visit the boards have played any of this year's baseball games. Let's save judgement for when the games have come out and people have played them to death to decide which game has the better gameplay.
