    SLAM ZONE is a NON ISSUE!

    As far as I'm concerned the slam zone feature is not the "gamebreaker" as those professed it would be. Just played a game online and I got one and my opponent got one and NONE left the field. NONE. It's a good feature if you ask me. It throws something different in the mix.

    While I agree that it's not an issue, I just didn't really like it. It didn't really do any justice for me or the CPU, and I'm letting the whole game stay out of any bullet-time effects.

        I can respect that. That's the beauty of these games, you can turn stuff on or off. I'll let it stay myself. In the leagues I'm about to kick off I'll leave it up to the people. But they HAVE to put in at least 3-4 games with it on to give an opinion either way. Just as I'll put in 3-4 games with it off to see.

                Again, I can respect that. I like the feature myself. Maybe that's a steroid sim feature or something. Just kidding. Maybe I'm crazy but I just like it. Especially since it's not an automatic HR. It adds a little drama to the game. And let's be honest. While some games are action packed edge of your seat, why can't there be 15 innings instead of 9 good, other games could use a dash of drama here and there.

                    I like it, I thought I would hate it, but I really am surprised at how well its implemented especially on legend online in 2 player games.

                            I thought it was implemented well, but it really wasn't my bag so I turned it off. Not a gamebreaker by any means, but just something I can do without. If I played a game online and my opponent wanted it on I'd have no problem using it.
