I am so sorry that I can not play the game. Because my PC keeps freezing, crashing or just reboote whil playing the game.
The game it self is very fun to play. I really love it. But there is nobody there to help me out with the game.
I even bought a upgrate RAM, I paid $16.95 to the online XP people to help me out. I wrote the 3DO people a doxen times. At first they replied. But as I still was not able to play the game, they stopped replying for my cries of help. As the 30-day period has past, I could not return the game or ask for a new one. So I am stuck with the game. What I do now is after each inning I "save and quit" the game. because it crashes maybe after one inning,two innings or maybe even three innings. It is a real real pitty, I love to play it, but it is just to much...
I am sorry for this rewiew, but it is what it is

High heat baseball games are really good arcade style games. the game is fun when playing multiplayer than it is with single player.
Pros:
Fun multiplayer game
Graphics are not that bad
Music is decent
Lots of game modes (Home run derby to 2 on 2 showdown)
Cheap
Cons:
Repetitive gameplay
Single player is boring and unrealistic
AI is easy to beat
Announcer saying the same thing over and over..
Even though this came has really annoying things in it, it still is fun when played with other, and it also is cheaper than other baseball games out their.

High Heat Baseball 2002 was by far the best baseball game ever. This new version of the amazing baseball game can only be better. If you've ever played High Heat '01 or '02 you know what I am talking about. If you have'nt, this game is amazing! You can control your whole franchise from Rookie-A to the majors. Draft or use real rosters. Play as many seasons as you want with players retiring and then call up rookies to take their place. Awards like MVP and Cy Young are awarded after every season. This is a must buy for any video game fan or baseball fan!
Great Game

This is by far the best computer baseball game that I have ever played. The keeping of batting streaks and statistics far more in depth that any other game. Graphics are great. The only problem that I have with the game is that the pitchers basically pitch around the games top hitters leaving you with the choice of either walking the batter or throw a pitch right down the middle. All other aspects of this game by far and away dominate the competition. If you like baseball games Definatly buy this one.
Pretty Good Game

This game is pretty good. For me, the olny reason why the game is buggy is because my computer is going throuh some kind of virus I think. It really deserves a 4 and a half, but you can't get a 4 and a half. What Kept this game from getting a 5 is the instuction manual is a little hard to understand at first, but once you get used to it, it's a great game.
Note: THE SOUND AND COMMENTATING ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Maybe the only choice now...

High Heat Baseball 2003 made absolutely no improvement over 2002. Or 2001. It also came with tons of technical problems. I couldn't play it on my main machine because, I suspect, it conflicts with the Matrox G450 card I have. As of the game itself, I get the feeling they must have something against Ichiro - how else could you explain him getting picked off almost once every 3 games, and a SB% of 40%?
A sad thing though, since HH2K3 is probably the best choice available for PC gamers now. To play a better baseball video game, we'll need a PS2~

I personally think that this year's version of High Heat baseball 2003 will be great and better than last year after reading some reviews on it from sites. If you had played the high heat series, you know what i'm talking about. I fyou have not played any high heat before, PLEASE go and get this version for either PC or PS2. It's the baseball gaming that get's you really into the game. Really exciting to play and the graphics are awesome!
A great game with no bugs in career mode (so far)

I got this game on release date (3/13/2002) and I am VERY pleased with it. The bugs that usaully plauged me on the previous versions have not reared their ugly heads (yet?).
The game play is great and the seasons computer very quickly.
I play in career mode on MVP and it is very challenging. I notice it is easier to strike out the computer players than in previous versions but this is a GOOD thing and it is by no means excessive but more realistic. Regarding some reviews I have read citing bugs in Home Run Derby I can't comment since I do not play Home Run Derby. The rosters are very good with all the rookies expected to make the majors included. This game rules if you are into a realistic baseball games that has great playabilty.

Bugs, bugs, and more bugs. 3DO has chosen not to provide updates to their games but instead re-release nearly the same product. Here's the kicker, they want you to spend another $30.
I have had so many problems with the game and have used technical support to it's fullest capacity. Still yet, 3DO can find a way to make their game work on one of the most powerful computer systems available. I have also used their customer support department and requested assistance. They are useless. They don't care if their customers receive a poor product and obviously think that they are the only product available.
I will be the first to tell you that the season mode and the statistical tracking is phenomenal but if consistently get booted off of a game without saving what is the point.
If you want this product, be prepared to save your game after every 3 innings that you play, or else you'll find yourself playing the game all over again.

This is by far and away the most realistic baseball game since Tony LaRussa's Baseball for Sega Genesis in the early 90s. Unlike Triple Play, it's possible to hit doubles, triples, throw out baserunners, draw walks and strikout opposing hitters. While the graphics of the stadiums may not be as good as some of the other games, they're more than sufficient, and for the true baseball fan, this game's realism is what's really important. We've seen enough of the incredible graphics and ridiculously bad game play. This game provides tons of fun, tense moments against a very competitive computer opponent, and a great atmosphere that will hold your interest all summer.
