Sammy Sosa High Heat Baseball 2001 was a baseball video game produced by 3DO in 1999. The game was designed to make the players as real as the technology at the time allowed. Such 'realtime' features included player fatigue, injuries, players having a bad day, etc. The game was named after baseball great Sammy Sosa, who said, "High Heat Baseball 2001 is the best baseball game"(back cover of High Heat 2001 PC game box). The game also recieved negative and positive reviews from game critics such as Gamespot and PC Gamer. Gamespot said the game was not great by criticizing features such as sound, "While Team .366 spent some time fixing the game's visual problems, the audio is still as sparse and uneventful as ever. Ted Robinson's play-by-play is repetitive and sleep inducing, sound effects lack enthusiasm, and the spectators drone on with a crescendo reminiscent of bad opera. Electronic Arts and 989 Studios can make baseball games that sound exciting, so there's no excuse for the bland audio that Sammy Sosa High Heat 2001 delivers."1 It also critized the graphics as being "blocky"2. Postive review included PC Gamer's comments that High Heat 2001 was "the best baseball game ever."3 and one of "the 50 best PC games ever."4
