Default I want a deadball era video game!!!

Posted By: Sean

hi russ!

Heres my idea to work out the physics regarding deadball and rabbit ball:
In all star baseball you swing using a cursor that is bigger depending on who the batter is. So in a way deadball and rabbit ball mode would be equivilent to average and difficult. The deadball era stadiums would be less home run friendly then the rabbit ball stadiums as well. I know this isnt perfect but I think it would be a good way to show the difference between the two baseballs. Plus in deadball mode, the ball can get way dirty and throughout the game will get more difficult to see and harder to throw accurately.

regarding sellability: Baseball card shows are always a market place for this type of game making it a slight bit more unique than your average shoot em up game that can only be marketed at game fairs and MAYBE comic book conventions. I think a lot of people play sports games not because they are familiar with the players but because the game PLAYS well. No wIm no game sales expert but Id love to see what past baseball games have sold. Surely this could be done.

Help me russ!!!!!!!!!!!!!
