Paul, Jeff J. (someone from EA) hangs around here and his last word was towards the end of June. I know that is a while but is it any confort at all to know that many of us are waiting just as anxiously? Ken

Paul, EWB should be released in June. Ken Tannenbaum of EA demoed it at my User Group last night and it's GREAT! The program allows you to do so much it's incredible. All the players (All Stars) contained on the disk come with their real stats. You can pick your team or have Earl pick it for you. You can change the lineup that Earl picks for his team (if you're playing against Earl) but he may get angry at you (grin). You can redesign the stadiums if you want to. There is instant replay, with or without slow motion. You can use Mouse, Joystick, or Keyboard to control things. You can play a real mangerial game or play it like an arcade game. You can play against Earl, another player or have Earl play Earl. You can play a full season of baseball and it will save the stats. There will be a data disk released not long after EWB that will contain all the 1985 and hopefully 1986 teams. There's lots more to it – just telling you stuff I remember off the top of my head.
