Re: which game forces you to use strategy the most (simulation style) ??

IMO, All-Star Baseball under these conditions:

-batting with normal cursor...
-trying to pitch a gem...
-who to use late in the game...
-extra innings...

Going for K's, ASB makes you think a little strategy, forcing you to use pitching knowledge and hot/cold zones.

The nod for strategy goes to ASB, IMO. And if I can add something about the different fielding abilities in the game..

You can DEFINITELY tell a difference when you take control of Albert Pujols in left field compared to when you take control of JD Drew in right or Jim Edmonds in center. It's nice though when you play an interleague game or the World Series, because then Pujols can serve as DH. Maybe Tino will retire for me at the end of the year, and then I can move Pujols over to first.

I gotta go with HH, but I haven't played enough of any of the others to say their are any problems, but in HH sound baseball strategy is important, especially if you bump up the sim slider.
