Can someone help me out? I'm having trouble deciding.

[Mr_October]

Is ASB worth the $50? I loved playing the last years version. But the only problem I had with it is the AI was sort of bad and I always got too many homers and runs and hits. I think the pitching was right on though. So just a few questions about this years version. '

Has the AI been fixed and is more smarter when throwing around the bases?

Has the runs issue been fixed? I hated it last year when I ended up beating teams like 10-0 abunch of games in a row.

And another few things I was wondering about is if the Franchise is any better or not? And do the Announcers this time pronounce the created players names this time around?

Also I have read about there not being enough space on a memory card even if you do have enough space? Will my brother and I be able to save 2 expansions or franchises on a single 8 Meg Memory Card?

These are the only things I thought was wrong with ASB last years. Thanks for the help guys

much better than last years. HR's are allot tougher to hit. I have many low scoring games. Franchise mode and Expansion mode is deeper than last years.

not sure about created players
not sure about mem card, I have xbox.

I currently have 2 Franchises saved on my memory card and I don't have a problem with space...I'll look tomorrow to see how large the files are because I'm about to go to bed.

I'm new to the game and having a really tough time hitting the ball. I think it's a great, expansive, fun game, BUT in reference to your comment about saying created players names, I don't think so. I haven't tried, but when Brady Anderson came to bat, they kept calling him "that guy." If they can't say all of the real player names (especially ones like "Anderson"), I don't think it can figure out created players. I hope somebody can prove me wrong.

Cheers to the NCAA 2K3 basketball name recognition function. Let's hope it makes its way to baseball.

Hmmm I read on IGN in their Review they said this.....

"We'll admit that the player recognition for created characters and Spanish announce option is a nice touch though."

I hope that the announcers recognize atleast their numbers rather then their position like last year.
