voltron Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 haha I've always liked the sound of L.A. Armada. Has a ring to it. Being from the east coast, never like west coast teams and realy never like anything out of LA.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 My buddies and I still believe Baseball was the best game ever made for the Intellivision, and believe me I love a lot of them! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fushek Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I used to do stuff like this when i was a kid. Have the computer play itself. Used to do that with Super Pro Football and Body Slam mostly. With Body Slam i had a paper with wrestlers for NWA and WWF written down on it and the wrestlers had to climb the ladder and go after their titles. I used to have way too much enjoyment with that. lol Same here ... I used to play a game called Colonial Conquest on the C64 that let you play as Japan, Russia, UK, France, Germany or the US. You could, however, turn them all to computer and let them duke it out for world domination. Funny how often Russia and Germany won and how seldom the US did.

maibock Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Today's Raiders/Spartans game should be a good one - who can forget 1942's run up to the pennant, 16 inning pitcher's duel between the two storied clubs. Though I'm a bit disappointed the Raider's skip is going with the the rookie phenom on the hill for opening day.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Just got my ticket for the Beamriders home opener next Monday. Ought to be a great game against the smash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Spartans got a hit parade going! 3-1 top 5th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Spartans keep up the hits and score on a fly ball! 4-3 top 9th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Raiders threaten in the 9th, but Spartans hold on 4-3. It's actually fun to watch. A lot of close plays at bases. The player's colors aren't perfected, but it's minor. And it's so fast! It's like watching a real game on fast forward.

maibock Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Bah..Typical Raiders ball game - offense sits on the fence until the end of the game, then decide to get off their arses and the bats come alive. Other than the 5th, looks like the rook pitcher held his own. Promising ball player! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Raiders were a hit away from tying it in the 9th also! Spartans defense shot em down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maibock Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Spartans have a Golden Glove shortstop if I recall - really anchors up the middle.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 It's funny, the computer is sometimes slow to get balls through the middle. I've seen the catcher run up near the pitcher to get a ball. I'm like "come on pitcher, wake up!" haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maibock Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 My favorite was always the bunt which would clear the fence for a homer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Yea there are a lot more bunts than I thought there would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Day game: River Raiders and Armada try to rebound from losses last week. Night game: Beamriders' pitching tries to shut down the explosive offense of Smash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fushek Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Watching the Armada last game was like watching the Cleveland Indians. Great starting pitching, but can't score any runs. Go Armada ... don't suck this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 (edited) Yea they were solid except for that one home run given up. Riders didn't have the best pitching last game, so we'll see. Edited August 18, 2014 by tacrec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
