The on field celebration was horrible, I think I've seen better celebration scenes on the NES, for those who dont know, its a birdseye view of some ants (ballplayers) who walk around like idiots like they are drawn together by magnets, but the cool part is, the annoucers said...."the curse of the bambino has finally been lifted!!" I liked that touch alot
Overall I think this is a great baseball game, and havent adjusted any sliders, I just bought it to kill time til I can pick up my XBOX baseball game, which is either gonna be MVP or WSB. There are too many bugs in HH that get on my nerves, although I have played maybe 20 games altogether I have only seen the "2 out man on 3rd" bug once. There are however sound issues, and the crowd noise cuts in and out all the time. I get these loud crackles of sound every now and then at menus as well. I also hate the camera change when diving for a ball, most of the time it gives you a horrible view of the play, and your player is off half the screen, you cant even tell if you caught it or not. If the ball gets by you, forget about it the camera is in the worst position to make a play on it by your OFer and the ball will roll deep into the OF grass.
Setting your rosters and rotation is a pain in the *** and the computer almost never follows them. If a player is put on DL or coming off DL it messes up your whole rotation automatically.
The fantasy draft is horrible done, its way too complicated....I dont like having to scroll down a list of 500 names to find a guy like Rafael Palmeiro, almost know way to organize it. I really wish this was done better because this alone will make me never play the fantasy draft.
I havent played with the minor leagues yet, so I dont really have anything to offer ya
Here are my grades and then I'm done thanks for taking your time to read this!
Graphics - C+
Sound - C-
Gameplay - A
Replay Value - B+ (Unlimited Franchise!!)
Overall - B
So its not a bad game, but I am resting my chances on either WSB or MVP
