The 3DO Company has signed an exclusive multi-year agreement with U.S.

Major League Baseball's 1999 Man of the Year, Sammy Sosa of the Chicago

Cubs. Sosa will help in the development and marketing of 3DO's baseball

franchise, SAMMY SOSA HIGH HEAT BASEBALL. In the February 2000 issue of

COMPUTER GAMING WORLD MAGAZINE, SAMMY SOSA HIGH HEAT 2000 was named "Best

Sports Game Of The Year" and PC GAMER MAGAZINE even went as far as to call

it "The Best Baseball Game Ever." "I agree with the gaming magazines that

say 3DO's High Heat Baseball is the best," said Sosa. "The baseball video

game I endorse has to play and look like the real thing. High Heat Baseball

captures Major League Baseball perfectly." This year's version features

improved graphics including star player face-mapping and new animations, a

TV-style presentation Action Camera Mode, Batting Practice Mode and new

training difficulty levels. SAMMY SOSA HIGH HEAT BASEBALL 2001 will be

available Spring 2000 for the PC and PlayStation. Sammy Sosa was the first

player in MLB history to hit 60 homeruns in two consecutive seasons. 3DO's

other game franchises include ARMY MEN, BATTLETANX, HEROES OF MIGHT AND

MAGIC, MIGHT AND MAGIC and MERIDIAN 59.
