High Heat Baseball 2004 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I must agree with most of the other user reviews criticizing High Heat 2004.
Incredibly, THERE IS NO MOUSE SUPPORT for this supposed PC Game!
Whoever made the decision to sell out High Heat PC users this way should be fired immediately!
Not only is there no mouse support but the menu interface is a complete nightmare! It's literaly an ordeal just trying to set up and start a game!
I will never understand why a company will take a very good PC product and just tear it down for game consoles! 3DO has sold PC users out for game consoles!
Just like NBA Live 2003, High Heat 2004 has gone over to the dark side! It's no wonder that there is no demo. Five minutes with this intolerable interface would convince any PC User not to bother.
The graphics are better and the game is still fun to play but the terrible interface and many missing features ruin it.
The sound and color commentary have improved little, if at all.
I think it's time to send a message to companies like EAsports and 3D0 who sell out PC Users for consoles!
If I wanted to play a Playstation game, I would buy a Playstation!

Baseball Mogul 2008 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For those that are strategically and statistically-inclined, you are going to enjoy this game. It allows you to run a Major League baseball team, like an owner, general manager, and manager, all rolled into one, with control over roster personnel, trades, salary negotiations, lineups, etc. Moreover, you can choose to run any team at any time in baseball history (at least going back to 1901), with an additional option for control of in-game strategy, if you so choose. If you are more inclined to the grad scheme of running a team, and not individual game play, likewise, you can play your team in simulation mode for as long as you want (including multiple seasons).
One of the best ways to detect a video game's progression is its continual improvements. The first Baseball Moguls typically had problems with minor league player development, salaries, and drafts (which in the older versions were always after the season). No more. In the 2008 version, your drafts are held during the season in June, as the real ones are, and your minor league player development is dependent on not just length of time playing at a certain level before promotion, but also the amount of money you organizationally spend on your minor league teams.
Another improvement is the historically-accurate variation of stadium fences, seat numbers, etc., of individual stadiums, including the switchover to new stadiums for individual teams. So, if you are managing the Houston Astros in 1999, your next season will automatically transfer your home stadium over to Minute Maid Park. This is a drastic change from the old Astro Dome. In addition, you also possess the ability to manipulate and/or cheat by putting the game in Commissioner Mode and skewing league revenue sharing, team salaries, player/pitcher skills, etc., as well as control your difficulty level of play (from the easy fan to more difficult mogul setting).
All in all, this is a nice antidote to the graphics-oriented video baseball games that are more worried about visual realism of someone's slide than the real variables that determine an outcome of a game. If you are an aspiring baseball fan with a love for the nuances of the game, BM 2008 is for you.

Season Ticket Basketball Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I write simply, because the interface is so simple, you don't need a manual, like one reviewer complained that the game was lacking. The interface is so easy and simple to operate, yet the game is very in-depth. It uses many NBA rules such as the mid level and low level exemption free agent offers as well as Bird years in free agency and trading restrictions, just like the NBA. The game is tremendous for sim fans, and coaching is a blast too. And like another reviewer said, you can import NBA team rosters as well as NBA team logos easily. In addition, there are many online leagues so you can play against other people. The HTML is reliable and nice to look at on a web page. Overall, it's just a tremendous game with a lot of room for adaptability and playability over a very long period of time. A terrific product.
