Last night I tried to create myself as a hard hitting Catcher for my beloved Pads. 
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Anyways, I gave myself pretty good stats for power and throwing arm, but kept the rest pretty average. I was a little disconcerted that there was no way to assign myself an age nor change my general appearance, but *shrug* since when has HH been about graphics, right?
Well, when I brought myself up to the majors I checked my stats again. My power rating was pretty high like I expected, but my average rating, which I expected to be in the 40-50 range was up at 70. Then I did a double take when I looked at my throwing arm strength. Even though I gave myself a 90 in the create a player screen, it showed as being at 23!! Both my current and my possible rating!! Then I went in game and tried to pick off a runner going to second! HAHA the runner slide into 2nd base and my throw shows up about 6-7 secs later. It was ridiculous. So I went back to the create a player screen and tried to muss with my stats again. No matter what I did, when I put myself in the majors, my arm strength stat didn't change.
So the next thing I do is try to use a different slot in the create a player screen. I actually go and check the stats of that slot BEFORE I change it to my name, my stats, etc. When I did this I noticed that the stats were already loaded in there. When I checked other slots, they had stats loaded too, but each was different. I noticed that whatever slot I used, the throwing arm stat stayed the same as what it was in that slot originally.
This ain't a game killler, but this added up with a few other annoying bugs and non-features is definately making this longtime HH fan think about returning this before my 10 days at EB is up and grabbing WSB or MVP.
Anyone know away around this?
PS...3DO, what were you thinking making only one season file available on a system(xbox) that HAS A FRICKING HARD DRIVE!!!???
