Did Anyone Else Notice This?

The ballot for the MLB All-Star Game is sponsored by eBaseball, which is made by Konami. Are we finally getting competition? My fingers are crossed.

Have you ever played a Konami game? If you're into cartoonish graphics and poor menu UI, sounds great!

@StinkyMcPooter_XBL having played pro spirit you are correct way too many inputs needed to throw and not the best batting controls

So everything I have right now? Sure, the free demo was a little rough, but anything is better than the effort SDS put forth this year.

@Deadmankillin_PSN, what are you talking about?
There is exactly one button required to make any throw; the corresponding button of the base (X = home, O = 1st, etc.) or R1 to throw to a cutoff. There's not even a meter (I actually like the controls of The Show better because there are more inputs), so it's literally push one button and throw.

The Konami graphics are far better in the pitcher/batter screen, with The Show's player models (body) being slightly better, overall... and what is it with a UI that actually works and doesn't freeze the game that you don't like?
I don't think either one of you have actually played it.
The free version has no face-mapping and plays in fake stadiums, so the graphics suffer in each regard. Game play is hindered by extremely low attribute rankings for those fake players who really aren't capable of hitting the ball hard (or throwing hard).
The full version runs circles around The Show in every aspect of actual baseball gameplay.

My comment was on the company in general and their catalogue of arcadey games that feature anime type characters.

@StinkyMcPooter_XBL - Oh... so you were just passing judgement on things you have no actual experience with, and you lack the self control to refrain from making comments when you don't know what you're talking about. Sounds great!

Dude, take a pill. Do you work for Konami? I've played many of their games over the years. They are poo. 'Nuff said.

@StinkyMcPooter_XBL - Do you know of a pill that makes ultracrepidarians seem less loathsome? I'd love one, thanks.
