NHL 95

Description

Before I begin, let me get this out of the way: I am a huge fan of hockey. I can’t even figure out why people watch any other sports. Hockey combines grace, speed, and violence (I’m not talking about fisticuffs here…but about the bone-crunching checks) into a single sport. Hockey players are some of the most phenomenal athletes on the planet because the sport demands strength, stamina, and flexibility in a way that no other sport does. Don’t even get me started about goalies who catch and stop pucks traveling at over 100mph while huge guys skate around in front of them, trying to disrupt their vision and concentration!.

But it’s not just me. Hockey is the second fastest growing sport in America, and the popularity of EA Sports NHL Hockey is just one more indication. Just in time for hockey’s lockout this past year, EA Sports unveiled its new upgrade, on CD-ROM only, NHL Hockey ’95.

FIFA World Cup USA 94

Description

World Cup USA ’94 is an association football video game developed by Tiertex Design Studios and published by U.S. Gold. It was released for Genesis, Sega CD, Super NES, Master System, DOS, Game Boy, and Game Gear in 1994. The game gives official groups, teams and the fidelity schedule of the championship. The PC and Sega CD versions have digitized stadium photos. The Genesis version carried the PolyGram Video logo across the stadium advertisement boards in the game.

This was the last official FIFA World Cup franchise game before Electronic Arts acquired the rights in 1996 for the FIFA Soccer series.

The game is viewed from a bird’s eye-view perspective. Game time may be customised from as short as a minute per half to the full regular 45 minutes. A coin toss is determined by the ‘home’ team and play will commence. Depending on the options set before the match, the gamer may opt to have less dribble control (resulting in the game ball sliding in the direction of the player movement); manual goalkeeper control which puts the player in control of all goalkeeper saves and kicks; ball-trapping, of which the player will not be able to shield the ball and allows opponents to snatch it away without necessitating a tackle; and no pass-back rule which was implemented during World Cup ’94 where a keeper may not pick up the ball whenever an outfield player passes it back to him. …
