It uses 3DFX support to make the game look even better. The graphics in the game aren't too blocky like other sports games. You can see every move the player does clearly while on the ice - or off the ice. One good feature is where the player is skating to the penalty box and you see the player spit the dummy and hit the glass. The graphics do not slow down the game. The arena's look realistic although there is the problem of players jumping on each other on the bench and the crowd doesn't move. Overall I'd give the graphics a 8/10. The AI in the game is also very clever. When playing against the computer you will notice that they will change tactics depending on what you are going to do. If you keep on doing the same move then they will change tactic and stop you from doing your play. Also there are many different tactics it uses when on a power play, power kill line. They will try tactics like box attack or defence. The AI uses it players effectively - It knows where its players are to pass to quickly and they usually always have more passes then your team. The wont generally shoot until they know it is a shot that could have a good chance of going in. The AI in the game has been rated 7/10. The sound in the game is great. I loved it. The intro is one of the best I have seen. The background music that goes with it really suits the type of game Ice Hockey is, Fast and Furious. The sounds the players make are reallistic. You can hear the sound of the players skating or even the tiny sound of a puck hitting the side post of the goal. To make sound even better NHL 98 has running commentary. This commentary is great. It has all the stats and comments real NHL commentators use. Overall I would have to give Sounds and Music 9/10 So to sum up this game in a few words I would have to say "It is a fast and furious Ice Hockey Game almost as real as the real game" EA has really made a winner in the NHL series. Any gamers who like Ice Hockey should definately get this game. Overall it is a 9/10. Great Score Other NHL 98 Reviews |
