Mo's stance is not right, he is not bent over enough but he strikes out a lot, so they got that right.

Yes, I do. In fact I use to work at Blizzard, before I went to Fullereton, it is frustrating. Thanks for thecomment.

I don't think you are aware of the nuances of baseball, very well nikeford. The amature draft in MLB is some 50 to 60 rounds. There are not only A, AA, AAA players, but also rookie ball players and such. I do however agree about your dislike of the menu system and what seems to be a weak contract system.

In actuallity, I'm very aware of the nuances of baseball...and yes I know that the rookie draft goes for 52 rounds. However, I don't want to do it on a video game. Also, take madden for example, it will tell you its the first round and you have the 6th pick....HH, you never know what round it is, or what pick you have...it just keeps going and going and going. Also, the rookies, they seem to be in no particular order, no reasoning behind it...just names scattered out there...no way to tell is this guy better than this guy...other than the "Advice pick"..obviously you can highlight a player and check his scouting report...do you know how long that would take to do every one, and then remember them too??
By the way, just to prove how much of the nuances of the game I do know...I know that HH is missing a rule 5 draft, I also know that major league baseball doesn't cut the entire single A roster to make room for the new draft picks. I also know that when you sign a free agent, you lose a draft pick, and the team you signed him from gets a compensatory draft pick. I also know that HH is missing arbitration in its game. So in all honesty, I do know about baseball....and if I wanted to manage three - 25 man minor league rosters, a 25 man major league roster...grow grey hairs trying to figure out the menu system, develope ulcers and wrinkles working through 700 rookie players with no ratings trying to find out which one is the right pick for my team, and then do that again for the 30 to 50 rounds that HH goes (don't know cause it won't tell you), smoke a pack of ciggarettes a day trying to figure out why the single A team doesn't have it's lineup and rotation set up when I start my franchise, then yes...I would keep HH'04. But since I don't want too...I'll go with ASB and MVP and make my decision then.

Sounds like HH is not the game for you. Let it go and move on.

This is their first console franchise, I'd say it isn't a bad start.

Re: High Heat Sightings and First Impressions here...

Is the Franchise really that bad? I will probably be getting just MVP and WSB. Perhaps HH at a later date.
