Fox Sports College Hoops '99

A player from the University of Kentucky shoots a jump shot.

The game allows the player to play a single game between any two teams in an exhibition mode, or to play a season mode as the manager of a college basketball team.[1] College Hoops '99 only supports up to two player multiplayer, unlike comparable games of the time which supported four player multiplayer.[3] The season mode contains most of the major college tournaments including early-season tournaments, although the National Invitation Tournament was not included.[3]

The game uses Fox Sports's TV set-up in order to give the player a more realistic feel to gameplay.[1] However, there is no commentary and there are no fight songs or other university-specific songs in the game.[1]

Fox Sports College Hoops '99 received mediocre reviews from critics, who felt that the game was dated compared to contemporary basketball games; the game has received a compilation score of 55.27% from GameRankings.[2] GamePro felt that the game had extremely intelligent artificial intelligence and praised the game overall.[4] IGN's Peer Schneider criticized the arcade-style slowdown that happened during shooting.[1] GameSpot's Nelson Taruc called the game an "incomplete work in progress".[3] IGN's Matt Casamassina noted that the game compared poorly against other contemporary basketball titles, such as NBA Jam.[1]
