I really hope they do revamp it and it's not just that they've totally collapsed. The game was clearly busted, but had a kernel of a decent idea to it. | |
They are probably just busy watching the games so they can make a decent game | |
Perhaps it got hit out of the park? | |
Hmm, odd - very odd. | |
Bad pun, bad. No dessert for you. Not even cake. | |
Oh no, they struck out | |
*weeps* That pun wasn't even in the ballpark for quality.. | |
Maybe they just didn't pitch the game very well? | |
Well, I doubt it would have been a grand slam anyways. | |
Have you seen my baseball? | |
Hey, all who remember me from rbo this is millerball. My computer was down for almost three months and when i got back on to play rbo it wasn't there. I really hope they find a way to fix it so i can talk to my bud Driverhit again. | |
Perhaps the game went down due to federal inditement over doping charges. | |

Cal Ripken's Real Baseball Disappears
Cal Ripken's Real Baseball seems to have hit a bit of a snag, as both the game and the publisher websites have disappeared without warning.
Blue's has the news that the MMO baseball game has been called, not because of rain, but because of reasons currently unknown. The game's website at playrealbaseball.com now displays only a message saying, "The service for Cal Ripken's Real Baseball is currently halted until further notice. We apologize for any inconvenience," while the website for Netamin, the publisher, is a Yahoo! placeholder.
The game's Wikipedia entry says Real Baseball was due for replacement by a "completely revamped version" in the third quarter of 2008, but according to a player named Matt, the shutdown occurred in the middle of ongoing league playoffs, with no notice or explanation for the players. Although contact links for Netanim CEO Andy Wang are no longer available, we've contacted the administrators of an independent (and still operating) Real Baseball fan site, and will report any updates as they become available.
