Forget About NHL Face Off or the Other Versions of Hockey Games Out There On The Market, NHL 99 from EA Sports is Simply THE BEST ! |
This new NHL version offered once more by EA Sports proves that the game world and reality can be joined wonderfully. Return with your team in the national league of hockey in order to win the Stanley Cup. Whether you play the game one or two players, the refinement of the new features, improved AI, better graphics and gameplay from the moment you begin the game is enough reason to pick up this title. As in all the versions prior to this one, a menu is offered to you in order to make adjustments according to your own style of play. You have the luck of beginning the season consisting of 82 parts plus the series eliminators, of course, if your team has known a good year. All the uniforms match up to the registered real guys in real life. Commentators animate each event giving facts of a player, and intensifying the voice tone at the time of good plays (and bad ones, too!). At the time-outs or of punishments for fouls, the game will also allow you to see some replays. |
All-in-all, the match on the game plays like a match on the television. There are some differences between the PC version and the version for the PlayStation though. For instance, if you possess a computer with high performance and a 3DFX card, the picture quality will be far superior to that in the PlayStation version. Not being a fanatic of sports games, when I received NHL 99, I didn't expect much more than a simulation. I cheated myself royally. It took me more than 7 hours of consecutive concentration to assess each of the elements needed to understand this game. Now, I imagine myself a follower of the NHL series by EA Sports for more than just one season! For the NHL fans, unconditionally, this game is a winner. A must game, get it now without hesitation! |
