All-Star Baseball 2004

All-Star Baseball 2004

The 2004 installment of Acclaim's long-running baseball series. The game offers more than 80 new features and improvements, including a more extensive, customizable franchise mode. The biggest change is in the user interface. You still press the same buttons to swing, bunker, steal and catch, but the batting cursor has been visually changed. It still has the same triangular shape as before, just with a different outline. The bunting, however, is a bit more unique. Instead of aiming the cursor when you want to bunt, a large arrow points to the ground. Point your bunt in the direction you want and hope for the best. There's also a small change in fielding: the ball cursor changes color. Four up to four players.
