I'd recommend you avoid baseball completely and watch paint dry instead. Much more interesting.

lol, indeed baseball isn't really the best and i'm not sure if anyone outside of the US actually plays baseball games. Isn't it that game that the girls used to play at school, where they run round cones...well rounders, baseball it's all the same really! There are some reasonable "US" sports though, Ice hockey, American footie and even basketball are all rather enjoyable fodder. You'll find that the ESPN range by Sega are the best here, with EA Sports also doing some passable renditions of these sports.

By the way there's an ESPN Baseball 2K4 game out, which if the rest of the range is anything to go by should be a good rendition of the (allbeit tedious) sport. See here for the range although not sure if UK shops stock it:

I've a copy of Xbow pal "All-Star Baseball 2003" (mint, only played once or twice, just wasn't my thing) I'll sell for £8inc. p&p if your interested.

If yes, then I'll open a thread in the gaming classified section for you to reply to, just to keep it within the forum rules.

Regards,
Iain.
