Anyone have this game? I haven't played a baseball game in ages, so the controls seem unbelievably impossible to me. Pitching is just a bear.
I've played a lot of the "my career" mode and I've got a great player cookin', but the timing on the power swing is irritating at times. Sometimes I can't do anything but home runs. Sometimes I can't even hit it out of the infield against a pitcher throwing 98 miles an hour. It's all about timing, but I don't think I have *that* many variations between my swings. Yet the game says nothing about players being tired or going through downswings.
*shrug*
Nonetheless, it's a great game. I'd really love it if I could ever figure out the controls. I'm sure there's some 8-year-old out there who would just shake his head at my inability to master this in less than 5 minutes. hehe
