Re: Trying To Understand The Appeal Towards ASB...
Well arguing ASB with Baseball Guru is insane mostly because his bling love for the game.
ASB and WSB were mediocre. As for the statement about watching baseball games, that doesn't make anyone an expert on the game. I've watched a lot of football in my day but the Cowboys aren't knocking on my door to come coach the team.
HH loses a lot of favor in a many eyes because it's graphics and lack of features. But on the field it does give the most realistic play out there. Now some will say the diffiulty is easy, and your example of taking the Rockies to the WS. That arugment is pretty weak considering the fact, i can say it about every other baseball made except text based games. In fact every sports game out this past year had that feature to an extent. Play Madden, NHL 2k3 or NCAA 2003 and you could take some middle of the road teams to greatness.
Anyway to each his own...

). I played 7 years in the minors and I got into High Heat right after I "retired" and it had me hooked. I was a catcher and calling games in High Heat is so much fun. I love setting hitters up and putting them away. I don't know if High Heat on the PS2 played differently but the PC version is just incredible...ugly but incredible. I can see some people getting turned off by the graphics and animations. Every year 3DO thinks they updated their graphics and it looks like they are still 2-3 years behind the standard. Me - I love the gameplay and thats what keeps me coming back. That and the High Heat PC community is awesome. There are so many utilities for the game that edit players, stadiums, uniforms, rosters, bats, batting gloves, shoes, etc. It should be interesting to see All Star on the PC this year. maybe there will be a way to edit all of the things I mentioned above. We should all be happy this year.
