high heat at it's best

this years version has got excellent graphics. And the catchers for the cpu can actually throw you out trying to steal unlike all star baseball. The double plays look realistic too. In all star baseball your 2 baseman just stands their and does not even jump to turn the double play and gets hit in the leg for not jumping and it is really annoying. I also remember from all star baseball they have batters with fielding gloves on!!!!! High heat may have some bugs but their not that bad. You usually don't even notice them at least I don't. They have real batting stances it's a great buy. I just got the last copy at the store i went too. I also like how you can change your innings to whatever you want. Unlike in all star baseball. IF YOU LIKE BASEBALL BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best Baseball Game, Ever!

To be fair I have not played a game outside of the high heat series in quite some time but that is because I have not felt the need to. The only real setback to this franchise over the years has been the subpar graphics, but this year that is no longer a problem. The gameplay is 100% right on, it is more accurate to describe high heat as a baseball simuation. Everything from fielding, baserunning, hitting and pitching is exactly as you'd expect real baseball to be. If you enjoy real baseball this is the game for you, I can't imagine anything getting better.

Gerat game!

The game is great!
I went to see if all the players u can tell apart, and my results were that the ONLY thing the same on each player was the cleets. thats it. But it is truly the litlest thing that nobody cares about. The graphics are OK, not an eysore, it is actually preaty nice. Now that I think of it, I see that the base coaches actualy make emotions. The umpires. Well they aren't PERFECT and I think that is on purpose that they dont make ALL of the call PERFECT because SOMETIMES, only some times a runner, batter, or fielder might think the umpire made a bad call and might end up in ejections! There are also injuries. some of the injuries are stupid such as Blister. The fielders also make errors, that is also only SOMETIMES. As I know you guys might not, This game's first edition was called "high heat major league 2000" it was a computer game and it used to have some weird crowds who said kiddy phrases such as "Drop it! Drop it!" before sombody caught it, stuff like that, that was annoying. I am happy they got RID of that. The game also has minor league teams. you can't paly with them, they are just there to call up. When you want to call a player up you click square on the player, and it will show the scoting report. If i didn't have it (i do) i would want to buy it because I think it is a really Great game as a discribed.

This is a awesome game. I like the controllers,like you can't cheat like the other baseball games. What i mean is you choose if you want to pich a ball or a strike. I love the way you do that. The other way is harder and a better way to cheat. Like when you pich it then you move the ball around, then when your about to swing the person your playing against can just change the pich to a ball or something else. This is truely the funnest baseball game of all time. I love "Ken Griffey Jr" for super nitendo, but I have to say this beats it.

The Best Sport at its Best.

It has some tough competion coming into this year but High Heat 2004 has steped up to the plate and hit a stand up triple off the top of the wall.

It can be played and tuned to your wants.

Do you want a real as can be MLB, thinking about every pitch, simulation ? You got it.

Do you want a pick up and play for a kid in the Little Leagues ? You got that to.

IT IS THE BEST BASEBALL GAME ANYWAY YOU PLAY IT.

in a word people this game is outstanding....high heats pitcher batter interface is unmatched unlike all star baseball or wsb i dont remember the last time i played baseball and had to line up a cursor to hit it...the graphics are greatly improved and hh provides a full complement of minor leagues player ratings also very so sammy sosa wont take you deep if he is slumping or you can call up a guy fromm aaa if hes knocking the cover off the ball...stadium detail is awesome ...but my favorite part of the game is the a.i......the computer wont hesitate to to bring in a lefty to face your left handed power hitter...try that acclaim....if you love baseball this is the game to get period!!!!!trip hawkins and the people at 3do have outdone themselves this season with a game that the baseball purist will enjoy all the way through this season..and with a huge franchise mode it will keep you busy until hh 2005

One Great Sports Game!!

This game is the most realistic baseball game I have ever played! The graphics don't live up to the quality of the gameplay, though. I have never played a baseball video game where you can run and still throw as you are running without having your player stop and suddenly rocket the ball to first but still beat the guy by a mile. Another problem that I would have to mention is that if you are used to the triple play series, it will take you a game or two to learn the controlls well. Overall, I would have to say this is the best baseball game I have ever played!

Awesome

High heat is a great game for beginners and serious baseball players all alike. the game modes are good and the it is one of the best baseball simulations for the 2004 mlb season!

Flat out, the Babe Ruth of Baseball games.

If you love baseball, this is the game for you. IT IS ACCTUALLY HARD TO HIT HOMERUNS. It is possible that I won't even hit 70 homers. I will play a whole season game by game and the stats at the end of the season will be darn close to reallity. My batting averages are alittle high, but, you can acctually make game play adjustments. I am most impressed with the fact sometimes you can't throw a strike even when you try to groove one down the pipe. My favorite part is when batting you can guess a pitch and sit on it, just like a big leaguer. If you fall behind in the count it really does make it harder to get a hit. No more batting .500 like in the other games out there. I have been buying High Heat games since the first one, because I knew they were on to something. This game is the something. IT IS TOTALLY AWESOME.
