This is very true. I played the heck out of WSB2k3, and now, after MVP, I just can't go back.

Hell, I can go back and get in a great game of high heat.... but not WSB/ESPN. HH and WSB/ESPN are not of the same caliber....

Re: Something Neat I noticed

Ya know, I was the exact opposite. I played the heck out of MVP when it first came out and now I'm playing the heck out of ESPN and can't go back to MVP. There's no doubt the swing animations in ESPN leave a lot to be desired, but IMO it plays a very good game on the field. I couldn't even play last year's WSB due to the swing animations, but after 10-15 games or so I stopped noticing it. Maybe I just get so engrossed into the game that it doesn't bother me anymore. My first few games it really got to me, but now I don't even think about it.

There still isn't a game close to HH though. Maybe someday....

Pared - I know how much you loved HH and it surprised me that you could get into MVP that much. Don't get me wrong, it's a good game, but the AI left a lot to be desired IMO. There were just too many AI issues that bothered me (ie: not pinch hitting for the pitcher when the CPU would replace the pitcher the very next inning was a big one). I also had an issue with the swing system. I didn't like pressing up to hit HR's.

Maybe MS will join the show and drop some HH type game on us next year. They've got the code, now they need to use it!!!

You're probably an Xbox owner then, MLB 2005 is pretty good, but while lacking things like sliders, check swings and drag bunts, the rest is more solid than the other games.

Yep. I wanted to try MLB because I heard it was very good, but got rid of my PS2 about 6-8 months ago.
