I always thought BS superstars was ok, but not really a baseball game. It just seems like a game with a baseball theme. I think touchsports baseball will be the realistic baseball, while flick baseball, will be the cartoon baseball, both of which i plan on getting. I am really looking forward to some footage of your upcoming game, and any other games you are working on.
Hey Everyone! Just want to clarify for our fan base out there: TouchSports™ Batting 1000 is an arcade style game focused on a real fun batting mechanic. TouchSports™ Baseball '09 is the full game of baseball with batting, Pitching & Fielding in a Single Game, World Series, and Playoffs and will be released after Batting 1000. Expect a series of videos to be released in the coming weeks to showcase the game. Thx! HHG
I WANT THIS GAME. Graphics look absolutely gorgeous and all of the above. This game looks like a must have for me because I just absolutely love sports games. Any news on the release date and whatnot?
Ah thanks for clearing that up reading this thread I was kinda like um ok isnt this just another HR Derby BB game? It does look nice but unless its on the cheap side I wont pick it up for a HR Derby game. The full Baseball game sounds interesting though. Still think alot of ppl thought Batting 1000 was a full fledge baseball game judging by their comments, but I clearly could tell judging by the first pic its not.
If Batting 1000 is truly as sleek as advertised, HHG would do well from a marketing standpoint to release it for $0.99-$1.99 to spread the buzz as widely as possible in anticipation of the full TS Baseball '09.
Interesting, it would kinda be like a lite version for Baseball '09, but you actually get an income from a demo! I like the idea, just don't make Baseball '09 0.99-1.99, that would be a dumb move. Oh and another side note, don't do sales too often!
With the iPhone 3.0 SDK and all the goodies contained within, we're looking at providing the ability to purchase a discounted Baseball '09 as an add on to the TouchSports Batting 1000. Thx! HHG
Thanks... We've been looking for ways to push the envelope for content delivery to our users, and Apple made it easy for us with 3.0! Great to hear you like our approach. Thanks! HHG
Yeahh,, I really really like that idea. Probably one of the most creative things I've ever heard in the App Store so far. Keep em coming, your ideas is what will probably shape the App Store
I would love to see a "touchsports game pack" it is $0.99 and in it, you can download any touchsports game for 99 cents less immediately (or maybe before) it comes out. This would encourage purchasers to get ALL of your games, and save space out of out 148 (or so I hear, 180, with the 3.0 update)
Thanks for the great feedback folks. 3.0 opens many opportunities for publishers on the platform and trust me, we are looking at all of them across all our titles. Thx! HHG
RE: Skyworks HomeRun Derby for comparison. Hey Salsa.. Since you brought it up... It's an interesting game. I Paid $1,99 for it. It's not in my top 180. Tried to figure out the controls and game play - I couln't get it. Read the instructions. Tried to figure out the game play again. Read some more still didn't get it. Passed it around to some co-workers. They didn't get it. Haven't played it since. In my opinion, it ranks a little more than LKA Basketball and is no where near the quality of their 2d based games. This game should never have been released in its current form. It's quality is damaging to the Skyworks brand.
The rising contenders The batting system for Batting 1000 is similar to the swinging system of Tiger Woods PGA Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel
