Ultimate Baseball Online accurately re-creates exciting baseball action online, with each position on the field manned by a real player. More than 1000 people logged on from around the world to take part in multi-inning, nine-on-nine games. Netamin tested the gameplay, interface and servers for the title, all without any major issues.

“We are proud to report that our initial alpha tests of UBO were a huge success with the highlights including our systems’ flawless ability to handle the server load and the strong graphics capability of our proprietary engine,” said Andy Wang, president of Netamin. “Our participants, who are all baseball ‘super fans,’ were also great in providing us detailed feedback on the title and the only true concern was when they would get to play again.”

Netamin is reviewing the reports from the testers and will be incorporating the detailed feedback into the next version of Ultimate Baseball Online. Further testing will begin in a few weeks and participants can register to get in on the action or download the mini-games by visiting: www.UltimateBaseballOnline.com.

The official season for Ultimate Baseball Online will begin in summer 2003.
