Product Information
Electronic Arts' hockey series returns to PC with new motion-captured animations from actual NHL athletes, a beginner's difficulty setting, on-the-fly play calling strategies, player hot and cold streaks, and revamped goalie artificial intelligence. Play an exhibition game, embark on a full season, jump to the playoffs, enter a tournament, or test your agility in a shootout. You can also work on perfecting your skills during Marc Crawford's coaching drills. Twenty-seven NHL teams, including the Nashville Predators, are in the game, along with 3D arenas sporting such details as banners, retired jerseys, and luxury boxes. Eighteen international teams, with their distinct rink sizes and rules of play, are also available. Jim Hughson and Daryl Reaugh reprise their play-by-play and color commentary duties from NHL 98. Up to four players can compete via LAN or Internet, and NHL 99 includes support for 3Dfx, All Rage Pro, and Direct 3D acceleration options.Product Identifiers
