ASB has THEE BEST HR animations...BY FAR!

[Motown]

I've come to the conclusion that ASB has the best HR animations. we're talkin' camera angles, collision detection...as the matter of fact, i've yet to see ANY collision D in any of the others! MVP cuts theirs off Waaay too early, and ESPN...i've yet to any, the same for MLB.
If ASB has focused on gameplay like they say...This WILL be the game to get...and i'm not basing this on "Collision D", i'm talkin' player models,ballparks,franchise,features, and extras. All it needs is the Gameplay...which i'm confident will kick major ***!

I noticed MVP cuts away from the HRs very early as well, as if they're trying to mask the fact that they have no collision detection. I still do like the crowd reaction and overall atmostphere after a HR in MVP though. ASB should turn out to be a great all around game!

I can't agree with you more Motown. ASB kicks ***, but every game has something that the others don't, if the gameplay improves like promissed then this is going to be the game to get.

ASB certainly does seem to do the things that matter most to me better than the other games.

And I guess that's what it comes down to.

I believe that all games (not sure about MLB 2005) will have collision detection this year.

Reasonings for all games with their own cool collision detection things:

1) All Star Baseball 2005 - The cutscene stays for a while... lets you see the whole bouncing of the ball during the whole homerun.

2) MVP Baseball 2004 - Great replays of homeruns (no cutscenes, so lots of drama on the homeruns).

3) MLB SlugFest Loaded - If you hit the scoreboard, it explodes like the lights on "The Natural".



4) ESPN Major League Baseball - Not sure how good the collision detection is yet, but what's cool is that if you hit a homerun in a specific spot, the announcers will talk about it.

For instance, in a video, some Mariners dude hits it on the left-field stairs in Oakland, and here's what the announcers had to say:

Rex Hudler: Well the left fielder gives chase, but this thing winds up on the stairs out there.
John Miller: Yeah, it makes it over the retired jerseys of Rollie Fingers on the left, #34, Catfish Hunter, #27 (or something) on the right, two of the real greats who have EVER played here in Oakland.
Rex Hudler: Well, the REASON they were great is because neither one of THEM made pitches like THAT.


It's AWESOME! Hopefully this will work for things like over the Green Monster, an upper deck, splash hits at SBC, and hopefully they announce it during Big League Challenge and stuff also... that would be ALL TIME!




Every game has its pluses in collision detection, but I like how early ASB got it on their games (2002).
