        Re: HH for gamecube

        I probably will, but the only reason I might not is that player stats don't accumulate beyond 10 seasons. That might sound like a stupid reason not to get a game, but for me a lot of the fun of doing a franchise comes precisely from seeing how players' careers develop and if they can break records such as Aaron's HR mark. However, I'm not getting ASB, and no other baseball sims are coming out for Cube (yet another reason why the tax refund might be going toward an XBox), so I'm not sure what to do...one game I'm definitely going to get for the Cube is Slugfest. I just can't help it...that game looks sweet.

                    I will most likely be getting it. I've never owned High Heat: I watched movies and tried the PC demo in previous years and just couldn't stomach the way it looked. But this year I checked out the movies and this time I really LIKE the look of the pitcher/batter interface (more than WSB in fact) and I like the camera angle it chooses when you make contact with the ball. Maybe there's something else about the game that's ugly but I sure don't see it yet. I can totally tell that fielder animations don't even try to blend together like WSB's do, but that's something I totally don't care about as long as what's there is solid and not dumb looking. If High Heat plays as good as people say it does then I'll probably love it.

                    Tell me, where are the graphical weaknesses in the game this year? The batting and pitching animations seemed top notch to me. The batters themselves were some of the best I've seen, but then again I was just watching a movie. In previous years I noticed the nasty textures on the stadiums. Are they any better these days?

                        Re: HH for gamecube

                        Bibby, I read somewhere (forget which forum), that in franchise mode, HH drops players' stats once they are more than ten years old. Thus, when you use (or sim) a player for 10 years, his first year drops off, and then after 11 years, his second year drops off, and so forth. This is kind of a big problem for me, because it basically eliminates any chance a player would have of breaking some of the accumulative milestones (e.g. home run record, stolen base record, etc.).

                        I've read that in WSB2k3, the same thing happens, but that the game continues to compile the overall career stats, even though you can no longer access the particular stats from more than 10 years ago. I wish High Heat had done the same. That being said, I'll still probably get the game when it comes out for Cube.

                            so after 10 years there will be no more stats for every player
