Well, it took about a month longer than we were internally told, and granted that was a beta date, but it's finally here! Gameday, and more importantly, PITCH f/x in three dimensions.
Pan around the entire field. See the entire pitch trajectory from any angle. Zoom, whatever.

Hey the Rays won
Jeff Sullivan - June 26, 2008
Neato.
JI - June 26, 2008
This is intensely awesome.
joof - June 26, 2008
Too much fun
Jeff Sullivan - June 26, 2008
Oh my god.
It’s so…beautiful.
BrianL - June 26, 2008
The Matt Garza going crazy sub thread is gone! =O
joof - June 26, 2008
It says 12 comments on front but I only see five.
JI - June 26, 2008
You're not fooling me.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
I cannot tell a lie.
JI - June 26, 2008
What's up with the Hafner video?
Mariner John - June 26, 2008
Commercial break.
JI - June 26, 2008
Secret Matt Garza subthread hidden from the masses!
joof - June 26, 2008
THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE!
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Lies. Lies and slander!
Matthew - June 26, 2008
You can't hide the truth forever!
The masses will know the truth, I swear!
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Accusing us gentle mods of misdeeds?
Matthew - June 26, 2008
WHAT DID GARZA EVER DO TO YOU
JI - June 26, 2008
Brewed illegal homemade beer.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
Sounds genius.
JI - June 26, 2008
Was it bad beer?
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Yeesh people. Get with the references!
Incidentally, the second DVD movie comes out tomorrow. Supposed to be much more straight forward Futurama.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
They just stole it from the Simspons.
JI - June 26, 2008
Evil bastards! Stealing their own work like that.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
Bender's Big Score did not impress me too much.
I hope the second movie is better.
BrianL - June 26, 2008
I thought it got better with subsequent viewings
but yeah, it was nothing special.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
The new one is supposed to be shit.
Granted, I haven’t seen it yet, but every review of it has been negative.
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
Well, who's reviewing the movies?
Fans of the show, or Roger Ebert?
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Fans.
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
Second DVD movie?
I have the first one (wasn’t very good).
Thingray - June 26, 2008
It came out Tuesday.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
Must have it.
Even if it sucks.
Thingray - June 26, 2008
You can only hide behind your cute little moderator shield for so long...
One day, you will be exposed!
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Actually my tag says overlord now.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
I’ll be.
JI - June 26, 2008
No, you are not.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
Short for
Well I’ll be damned.
JI - June 26, 2008
I know, I was intentionally ignoring that to make a joke.
The humor comes from you knowing that I know what it’s short for. There’s a flowchart in the lobby.
Matthew - June 26, 2008
The lobby?
No one will see it there.
JI - June 26, 2008
Bad ass.
That is all.
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
Baseball Mogul needs something like this
Frosty Raptor - June 26, 2008
Wow am I bad at that game.
I cannot avoid 100 loss seasons no matter what I do.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
You can trade one good pitcher for five future superstars.
JI - June 26, 2008
I do this always.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
Yeah, basically the best tactic...
...is to sell off dudes in their final arbitration year for cash and use that cash to buy the top picks in the draft. Make sure your farm system and scouting are all top five in terms of budget and you should crush everyone at all four difficulty levels.
Frosty Raptor - June 26, 2008
"Buy
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
top draft picks."
I don’t get it. This might be why I suck, because I trade the hell out of guys in their final arb years.
Also, fuck this keyboard.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
When you open the trade box
Don’t offer any players. Just add their top prospects to the trade window and click “balance cash.” It’s usually not a lot, unless the guy’s current rating has progressed past 75 already.
Frosty Raptor - June 26, 2008
Ah!
Sweet.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
I'm also bad at figuring out when payroll goes down.
So I coast with a huge surplus and then can’t afford to sign AAAA relievers.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
I can't stop watching this thing.
BrianL - June 26, 2008
So Albert Pujols is a better DH than Adam Kennedy...
JI - June 26, 2008
and Ryan Franklin is still a shitty closer
JI - June 26, 2008
I don't get it... how do I make it move and zoom and such?
Am I really that retarded?
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
It looks exactly the same as before to me... do I need a new plugin?
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
When I fired up the new version there was a little tutorial.
It sounds like you didn’t have that, right?
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
? no... for me it looks exactly the same as before when I go over there.
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
Yeah, I don't know what's going on, then.
Maybe clear your browser cache and try again?
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
What the hell. I made sure I installed the new Flash, cleared cache and restarted and I stil can't get into it =(
what the hell
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
And you're following Matthew's link in the fanpost?
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
Yeah
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
Man, I'm stumped.
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
Try in IE and FF?
Matthew - June 26, 2008
I'm using FF. Just tried IE, didn't make a difference. I'm starting to think it's my computer.
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
Verified.
It worked with FF3, FF3 using the IE tab, and IE6.
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
Is there something I need to click to get into the new version?
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
No.
Mariner John - June 26, 2008
Yea, when you enter the gameday
A window should pop up saying do you want to go to the simple version or the 3D version.
Although that might only happen if your computer sucks.. I was using my girlfriends shitty computer this morning and it asked me that
seattlesundevil - June 26, 2008
I'm on a work computer, if that matters =(
I guess I’ll try when I get home?
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
It IS pretty spectacular, if that helps :)
seattlesundevil - June 26, 2008
It doesn't you bastard
trying to get it to work has caused my productivity to dip dangerously close to “the day CL-thread happened” levels
seattlebruin - June 26, 2008
So Brian Runge just got suspended for that amusing incident with Carlos Beltran and Jerry Manuel.
BrianL - June 26, 2008
Bwahahahahaha!
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
I'm a bit surprised.
JI - June 26, 2008
The new art is a bit fugly
but the controls are ace.
bluemax - June 26, 2008
They should've modeled the hitter to look like Bonds just to see what would happen
Jeff Sullivan - June 26, 2008
Phil Hatzenbuehler - June 26, 2008
This so much worse than the McGremlin.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
WRONG
BrianL - June 26, 2008
I know I'm in the minority, but it's fucking creepy.
Aaron Campeau - June 26, 2008
That's pretty cool.
Goose - June 26, 2008
I like it.
