Pardon me for sounding stupid, but is there a way around this for people that like to use sliders? Thanks. Later

You guys must be too young to remember the days before numbered sliders. I believe for Madden and NCAA, they took a LONG time to start actually putting in numbers in relation to the sliders. Guys like Pared and Jistic used to have to post their Madden sliders telling you how many clicks from the left you had to go in order to get the setting they were using. Big pain in the *** but it's been done before.

Thanks for posting all the pictures, I look forward to your impressions of the game as I wait for the official release.

Also, from looking at the screenshots for the controls, I did not see a page for "Base Burner" mode. I hope they left that in the game. Can you confirm if it's in or out please?

Thanks.

It will probably be clicks like in Sony's MLB game.

Edit: TJ said that already... meh

Guys, thanks a ton for taking the time to put up these screens. They're incredibly easy to navigate with the new (and vastly improved) board format. I can't wait until Tuesday.

Seconded

It's a lot easier to navigate the screens in the new OS!

no i don't think so. Since you counted down from the Angels spot all the way to the Twins, you came up with number 14. well, they should be lower and they probably are.

Those teams are all in alphabetical order.

Angels vs. Astros? lol.

Does that "Around the Horn" toggle mean we'll be able to throw the ball all the way around the infield after an out and not just to the shortstop? I've missed this. this is one way I've been able to learn new throwing mechanisms. I hope this is the case
