    haha, the spitting pitcher in Triple Play '96. Man, that happened so much I have the sound and image burned into my brain.

        And that's EXACTLY why I'm not for such a feature. I'd rather have all sunny games than this stuff that's probably going to happen again. Half of the screenshots and videos have overcast skies.

        Every time that I play ESPN NFL 2K5, I seem to restart the game if it's raining or cloudy or whatever, because I don't like it. It doesn't look as good, etc. I'd only like it if other games had it, but not the game that I'm playing.

        I'm really going to be pissed if half of our games are overcast, especially at somewhere like Petco Park or Angel Stadium.

            It is indeed puzzling why all sports game don't already have weather effects built in. While I do think this will look cool, knowing that it will probably look the same most of the time, is not a good thing. Based on experience, anyway. Since Kush is doing this, hopefully they didn't drop the ball. Can't say I have a whole lot of faith that it was done right, though. One other thing that I would love to see done right in baseball games for once, is the crowd images and animations. They always look like cardboard or smudges of paint. Why can't you ever feel like you're actually being watched by fans, and not aliens?
