Yeah, I agree with what Heelfan said. Hopefully 3DO will do a major graphics overhaul. The addition of a franchise mode and a minor league system would be nice as well.

They did a "major overhaul" on the graphics this year, and they still weren't very good. I remember reading an article where one the guys who worked on HH was actual surprised to learn that the graphics were sub-par. That being said, I wouldn't hold out much hope that they will do much improving for an XBox version. If you don't know what's broke, how can you fix it? Start with animation and go from there, 3DO. Actually do it in a motion capture studio, rather than having Trip keyframe it all by hand.

Re: High Heat to Xbox (this site says so)

Yeah, I'm sure I'll get it... I do every year.

This last one was a pretty good game, and it did a good job of keeping me busy until ASB hit the shelves.

I give HH and its followers alot of crap, but it's all in fun. The game plays some decent baseball... I just like ASB better is all.

Re: High Heat to Xbox (this site says so)

Guru, did you like ASB or WSB better?

[BaseballGuru]

Re: High Heat to Xbox (this site says so)

ASB... it's been my game o' choice since back in the N64 days. Favorite game of all time.

Re: High Heat to Xbox (this site says so)

My fav. ASB game is the 1st one. After that they all seemed the same and the pitches became faster and had less action

Yeah, I think they went away from the arcade, change your pitch flight in mid air gameplay and went with a more sim type pitch style.

That's actually one of my favorite parts of the game. When I'm in the box facing Randy Johnson, I really feel like I'm facing him in real life. Impossible to hit, and in my first ever expansion season, he knocked Ventura out by hitting him in the orbital socket. That's gotta hurt.
