    Other baseball games might have a more unique feature or two, and several absolutely have better graphics, but only High Heat delivers such consistently riveting gameplay.

    Everything a good sports title should be. We'd love to see online play in 2005, but this is a true diamond. [May 2003, p.51]
  3. Can't measure up graphically to the competition, and though this is a solid baseball title, it can be a little arcade-like and easy.

    This game has nice stadiums (which you can view in 360 w/replay cam), nice animations (batting), and very realistic attributes for every MLB player. Downloadable rosters is a very nice feature. The menu interface is different, and it has a good fmv introduction that hypes you up. Great game for "true" baseball wanabes. Expand

    I don't really understand all the love this game gets. The animation and graphics are way below par. The gameplay is functional, but nothing special. I don't like the pitching system at all. It doesn't give you enough freedom. But the batting does seem right. Trying to read pitches is made challenging and fun. I played High Heat after MVP 05, and MLB 2k5, and both those games are way better. Expand
