GAME PULSE: 1994 SEASON SET

===========================

Step into the greatest what-if in baseball history. This set brings the

strike-shortened 1994 professional baseball season to Game Pulse - all 28

teams, every player, and authentic ballpark cards reflecting real-world park

factors. It is the season baseball never got to finish, and now you can.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

---------------

- All 28 team rosters with full player cards (position players and pitchers)

- Every major league ballpark, with ratings derived from 1994 park

performance data

- New ratings built from the 1994 season as it was actually played

CARD GENERATION

---------------

Every card is generated from actual 1994 season statistics. Batter and pitcher

ratings are built from real performance data across the games that were played

before the strike, with park factors computed from each stadium's run

environment - so Tony Gwynn's card reflects his run at .400, and every ballpark

plays the way it played.

.394

----

No one had hit .400 since Ted Williams in 1941. In the summer of 1994, Tony

Gwynn looked like the man to finally do it. When the players walked out on

August 11, the San Diego outfielder was sitting at .394 - the highest average

the game had seen in more than half a century - and he was scorching, hitting

.475 in his final ten games with a swing that teammates and rivals alike

believed would carry him past the line. He never got the chance. The strike

ended the season with roughly fifty games left on the schedule and the

question forever unanswered. In Game Pulse, the chase doesn't stop in August.

Every one of those at-bats - all baked into his card.

A SEASON FULL OF STARS

----------------------

Beyond Gwynn's pursuit, 1994 was an offensive explosion cut short in its prime.

Matt Williams of the Giants had launched 43 home runs and was dead on pace to

chase down Roger Maris's record of 61, with Ken Griffey Jr. (40), Jeff Bagwell

(39), Frank Thomas (38), and Barry Bonds (37) all in the hunt - six players

tracking toward 50. Frank Thomas hit .353 with a .729 slugging percentage on

the way to his second straight AL MVP. Jeff Bagwell was a unanimous NL MVP at

.368 with 39 homers and 116 RBI before a pitch broke his hand days before the

walkout. Greg Maddux was untouchable, posting a 1.56 ERA for his third

consecutive NL Cy Young. David Cone took the AL Cy Young carrying the Royals,

while Bob Hamelin and Raul Mondesi claimed Rookie of the Year honors. Every

star's real 1994 performance is here, card for card.

THE FALL CLASSIC THAT NEVER WAS

-------------------------------

For the first time since 1904, there was no World Series. The strike wiped out

the playoffs and the Fall Classic entirely, and no team felt it harder than the

Montreal Expos, who owned the best record in baseball at 74-40 and never got

their shot at October. Game Pulse gives 1994 the ending it was denied. Seed the

postseason that vanished, send the Expos out to claim the title they were

chasing, or run the bracket a few dozen times to see who history would have

crowned. Every at-bat, every pitching change, every ballpark detail - all

driven by the real 1994 cards and the roll of the dice.

A CARDS AND DICE BASEBALL GAME

------------------------------

Game Pulse is a true cards and dice baseball simulation. Every plate appearance

is resolved by player cards and dice rolls - the same tactile, statistically

driven experience that tabletop fans have loved for decades, brought to life

digitally with full animation, sound, and presentation.
