I just fired up my Saturn over thanksgiving break and started playing the WSB 98 season I had going way back when. Once I got over the graphics being terrible (first year they used a polygon engine for WSB), I realized something kinda odd and scary. Many of the animations from WSB 98 look IDENTICAL to the ones in WSB and WSB 2k3 for Xbox. I don't know what company produced WSB 98, but I think Blue Shift took the animations and implemented them into their baseball game. To add to that, the problem of "one base at a time" from WSB on Xbox was nearly identical in WSB 98 as well. It's nearly impossible to score from second base on a single in both games, and forget about getting a double down the line. Sorry for the off topic post, I just thought it was kinda interesting that both games were so similar even though one is on "state of the art" technology and one is way outdated.

Re: I just starting playing the hell out of WSB 2K3 lately
I got no problem scoring from second on a single, it's just a lot easier when you can take a pitch to rightfield though.
I've gotten MANY doubles down the line in this game.
If these were problems, they must've been fixed somewhat or they weren't that bad to begin with.Comment
