Screens Updated: 2/24/2004

Acclaim sent over a bunch of screens showing off many aspects of the ASB '05 trading system.

Two screens of Greg Maddux pitching for the Cubs added. Acclaim obviously wastes no time in keeping their rosters updated.

For now, enjoy these new screens of the various batting interfaces available in the game.

Half of your time in All-Star Baseball will be spent at the plate. The game now incorporates different hitting options, so each individual user can find one that is right for them.

When hitting, you have 4 different options: Timing, Zone, 2-D cursor, and 3-D cursor.

In all of these batting modes, the user swings by pulling back on the right thumb stick and pushing forward for the swing OR by pressing the X button (PS2).

In all of these batting modes, the user swings by pulling back on the right thumb stick and pushing forward for the swing OR by pressing the A button (Xbox).

Check out some fresh new screens of A-Rod showing off the new uniform in All-Star '05.

Acclaim sent over a brand new set of screens along with information for All-Star Baseball 2005's "Fielder Cam". Check 'em out.

New to ASB ’05 is the camera that puts you in the shoes of the Major Leaguers, “FIELDER CAM”. With the fielder cam activated the camera follows the action of the fielder from a 3rd person perspective. As with the previous fielding camera the left thumb stick still maneuvers the highlighted fielder around. Now the right thumb stick controls the camera, in a fashion to mimic a fielder’s head movements. This allows the user the ability to run in one direction and look in another. In the beginning levels the fielder cam will start to move the fielder in the direction of the ball in an effort to assist the user in heading in the right direction. In addition, an arrow will also be seen on screen to assist the user. To get a better read on the height of the ball a set of rings will be on the field to not only tell the user where the ball will land but also the rate at which the ball is descending. As each ring disappears the ball is that much closer to landing. When mastered this really helps the user time their dives accurately.

Since the perspective of the field is reversed in Fielder Cam the user will also have the ability to adjust which button throws to which base. If you ever find yourself throwing to the wrong base go to the Fielding Options in the Pause Menu to adjust the Throw Style to REVERSED. This function will flip the infield buttons to give you a more accurate picture of the diamond as related to the controller.
