8 Great Video Games Spoiled By Terrible Graphics

1. High Heat Major League Baseball 2003 (PS2)

highheat_screen004 Forget Fifa, Madden NFL and NHL - apart from the one that let you play as zombies - The High Heat Baseball games were my favourite sports sims. They were always had a plethora of game modes, statistics/attributes and demonstrated a simple to play, difficult to master ethos. The only area where the games continually failed was in the graphics department; something which cumulated in HHMLB 2003. Try and play the 2003 edition today, and chances are the first thing that€™ll strike (sorry) you is that the character models are abominations. And by abomination I don€™t mean anything as stylish and intricate as Mothra, I€™m talking Innsmouthian Fishmen. Take Sean Casey up there, his model looks like Max Payne after having a freezer bag melted onto his face. I€™m no Baseball expert, but I reckon if you are adorning an expression that€™s somewhere between an unashamed outburst of emotion and receiving a prostate exam from a Parkinson€™s suffering Freddy Kruger, then you are doing something wrong. Agree or disagree with this list? Let us know in the comments section below.
