Re: Any questions?

so by "redone" are they talking about grass/dirt textures?

I'll try to answer this one.

-Yes, that, and how they could get everything in higher resoultion, as well as new skies.

-No, you can play the games.

what big changes have been made then

<hr /></blockquote>

We've made big changes to:
Batting - Cursorless batting system default, still have cursor option, lots of new sliders, CPU batting AI improvements, option for 1-button swinging, hit variety
Pitching - effort meter, strike zone smaller, 8 new pitch types, new pitch select interface, mound visits, bunch of sliders, realistic pitch speed (still an option)
Fielding - short infield dives, camera bias for hits near the lines, new wall jumps, new dives, new lunges, fielders reposition on pitch, new alignments, speed boosts, "smart fielding" and auto-reselect fielder options, bunch of sliders
Baserunning - tuned stealing, runners lead off a bit more when pitcher pitches the ball, assisted baserunning option, rounding bases, bunch of sliders

Confidence
Online Play
Roster Downloads
First Person Mode (with a sort of "halfway" option that isn't all first person but makes a few things easier)
The Duel
Player Scaling
Redone stadiums + 3 new ones (Hiram, Petco, Citizens), new grass and dirt
New faces, all faces redone
PS2 performance
GM Career
Situation Mode
GameCast
Enhanced Roster Editor (lots of bug fixes, edit rotations and lineups)
Trophy Room
Sports Ticker
Tons of ESPN-style stat overlays
Jon Miller and Karl Ravech - commentary is more interesting than before, too.
Cutscenes redone (broadcast camera style, more variety, etc)
New signature animations

Those are off the top of my head, so it's not a complete list, but maybe enough to answer your question.

thanks for your help, this looks like the game for me, plus it is $10 cheaper than any other game out there. Also, can you unlock stuff. So is the trophy room like crib mode. also say the shortstop dives to stop a single, will they possibly be able to throw out the runner because last year they would stop the ball, but then just get up, and by the time they threw it was too late. Also how is the player progression in this game. Does it happen often, and also when players do progress, do their actually attributes increase/decrease or is it only their overall rating increases/decreases. Also do rating and attributes play more of an effect for hitting and fielding this year. Thanks for all your help.

A lot of the stadium geometry has been changed as well (Monument Park, seats on the green monster, and bunch of other stuff...I'm not very involved with that process though, so I don't know the complete list).

What's Monument Park?

And I know that you made specific changes to some stadiums, but for others you didn't. So I named something that was added/different in every stadium, if that sounds right.

So SafeCo is still a dome, correct?

I was also concerned about US Cellular Field, if you had added the renovations.
