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.

Netamin [http://www.bluesnews.com/cgi-bin/board.pl?action=viewstory&threadid=91937], the publisher, is a Yahoo! placeholder.

The game's Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_Baseball_Online] 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.

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.
