As a former HH player I am going to give ASB a run this year - in the past I never paid much attention to it (maybe becasue of poor reviews), but this year needing a new baseball title I started poking around on the OS boards. I still wasn't giving ASB much of a thought, but we all need something to do at work (besides work I mean) - so I started reading up on ASB. Here, I found game developers taking time out of their schedules to interact with game players and to answer questions on the game. I found a group of players that seemed to be very intelligent, rational, level headed, and mature (not always a given in the sports gaming world). So, based on the honesty of Asb_Man and Asb_Art, as well as the opinions of and discussions with people on this board I went out and rented ASB 04. Lo and behold, I really enjoyed it, so I rented it again - I enjoyed it even more. I wished it had been the game I had been playing for the past year.
So on the eve of the new release, I'm really looking forward to the '05 version - nevermind reviews, I'll trust the judgements of the people here at OS. I really enjoyed last year's version so I expect the same this year. I'm looking forward to talking about the '05 version with you all in about 21 hours......
Thanks to everybody here, thanks to the ASB guys that have come in here and taken criticism and answered questions to satisfy out curiosity. If nothing else it really shows those huys care about the game they put out.
