Re: Game Length

^ How true.

I'm really excited about the in game saves this year, too.
Last year, thats what I missed most, because half the time I started a game, but couldnt finish, so had to restart the game later.

I played on the fastest setting last year and it didn't really speed the game up much. I found myself drifting mentally about the 5th inning. It was an effort to complete a whole game -- even if it was close. So the question is -- shame on me? Or shame on the game for not keeping my attention.

I had the same problem last year. Around the 6th inning I started to float away. Often I would have to stop and go for a quick jog to wake myself up. And I was playing on fast. .it did not seem to help much.

I am glad I am not the only one. . .

Both.

Shame on you because real baseball IS tedious.

Shame on them for not accounting for the A.D.D. afflicted.

ASB plays like real baseball. Slow and leisurely. They SHOULD speed up the quick-game mode though. Sometimes you just want a quickie before work/school/listening to the wife blabber....

Real Baseball is not tedious, it is suspenseful. Boring Videogame baseball is tedious
