    going, going, going,... BACK!!

    What a letdown.This game is far more frustrating than fun.Realistic or not its pissing me off.Heres my opinion on what makes this game a return.
    1.WAAAAY to many errors.Every friggin time I throw to a base the player misses the ball.Well...maybe not everytime but way to often.
    2.Whats the deal with fielding assist? I mean sometimes it assists you but other times it completly takes over not allowing you to do ANYTHING.If you set it to AUTO its boring,if you set it to ASSIST its frustrating,if you set it to MANUAL its even more frustrating.I'll have my player right where he looks like he needs to be to make the catch but *POOF* it hits the ground.
    3.TOO HARD TO HIT!! Come on Acclaim lighten up some.Even on Rookie level its a nightmare and controller breaking frustrating.
    4.Almost 90% of my hits are pop ups or ground outs while the cpu has absolutly NO problem pounding me.(even on rookie).
    5.Out of 15 games in my Franchise i've managed to pull off 2 double plays.CPU does it 3 or 4 times a GAME!
    6.Replays are better than previous versions.At least you have a *little* control now but too often you cant see the ball on HR's and of course theres no camera control just position.jeez...
    7.The options change from time to time.And YES I FINALLY figured out how to set and save my options but after loading them I still occasionally have to shut of the helpful(i.e extremley annoying) hints.
    8. You score then they score.I smell a catch up bug.(maybe im wrong about this but for the VERY few times i've managed to get a run the cpu seems to do the same thing right after me.)
    Anyways,no flame war here just MY observations of this game.Some my like it and to them-ENJOY but to me its on its way back for WSB or MVP.And dont say that I havent given the game enough time because I've played about 25 or more games ...
    PEACE : )

    If you gave it 25 games, and are not having fun with it, then by all means take it back. Sounds like it's not the game for you. Hopefully one of the remaining games will be the right game for you.

                            I love this game. I truly believe that this is a baseball purist's dream. It has Palatable gameplay, unmatched depth, and presents itself with utmost respect to the history and tradition of baseball. I also have OOTP5 and loving it. Will also get Inside pitchto play online. There is something for EVERYONE this year. Enjoy!
