100 Calorie Packs!

See that's the problem with me and baseball games no offense to the sport of baseball but I don't have the attention span to sit there and play 9 innings. I know you can play lesser innings but I just get frustrated and turn it off. I think the reason being is because I totally suck at batting and my pitching isn't all that great. The only thing I do enjoy doing in baseball games is fielding. I love stealing home runs and getting double plays.


I just notice that this has nothing to do with the game.. :blush: -_-

Just a quick question: I am finally getting it on PS2 but I can't choose between 2K8 and The Show. Can anyone tell me which one's better?

It'd be easier for me to tell you why it isn't better....

2k8 isn't anything special on next gen, I can't imagine how bad it would be on PS2.

The only thing that 2K has The Show beat on is the (really fun) Pitching, fielding, and hitting gameplay shit.

This game is really starting to piss me off. I am getting good at this game and able to shut down the CPU, giving up like 2-3 runs a game. But sometimes when I get in a jam, I get a grounder to get a DP, except my SS or 2B act like retards. For instance, I had runners on 1st and 2nd, with 1 out. I get the grounder to my SS. He gets to the ball easily, but just stands there and the ball goes through his freaking legs! So that loaded the bases, now my SP is rattled and I give up a base hit in the gap, so 2 runs score. I'm thinking, I should be out of the inning if the guy bent down and got the ball. I then lost the lead because of the stupid play by my SS.

Then later in the same game, my 2B gets a weak grounder and the ball bounces off his glove and the runner is safe. Again, would have been out of the inning if it weren't for the errors. Runner on 3rd scored.

It just seems like this game randomly picks times in the game to screw the player over and have stupid errors. Then it seems like after the error, you always give up runs.

Ok, I'm done. :angry:

Tweak your sliders. I turned my errors way down, infielder reaction up, and infielder speed up.
