Sports Sim Magazine, Issue #6 (ebook)

E-book Version. 172 pages. In the sixth issue of Sports Sim Magazine, Eric Simon analyzes whether there is a best practice for accurately carding baseball, David Arlington replays the “Fight of the Century” on five different boxing sims, and we have the scoop on Regular Season Basketball’s newest large-scale venture into the college game (with a free version of the rules and the 1982-93 Chaminade and Virginia team sheets). S.T. Patrick looks at how and why that Chaminade team’s stats were lost to history (and then found), Roberto Chiavini gives us the 2012 and 2014 World Cup soccer teams to supplement the game he offered us for free in the last issue, Keith Avallone of PLAAY details the company’s history. Dave Gardner argues that games deserve second chances and Ron Juckett instructs us to put that search for the holy grail game on the back burner. We also get updates on Strat’s 2020 baseball releases, Strat’s 2020 “Imagined” card set, 4th Street Software, Legends Games, and Statis Pro Compatible. Games profiled in this issue include History Maker Golf (Michael Webb), Bowl-O-Rama (Derek Jones), On-Deck Baseball (Ian Brooke), Fast Break NBA basketball (Rod Hess), and Minden Cricket (Darren Edwards). Replays include an NFL all-time greats tournament and the 1973-74 NBA basketball season.
