NHL 98 Review

This is the final SNES offering of the seminal EA Sports NHL franchise for said platform. The run on Genesis for this title also ended with the 1998 offering, both beginning with NHLPA '93.
Easily the best hockey series for SNES, with 98 simply having the latest rosters and a few more features here and there, tweaked gameplay and whatnot. The games are mostly the same from 95 or so on, with different menus and music and other things that EA could change without altering the game too much. This particular offering features rather bland menus.
For the record, the BEST of all is probably NHL 97 - better looking, more bells and whistles - but the great gameplay is essentially the same - solid play control, real NHL teams with all the players, stats tracking, and so on and so forth - fun to play alone but SO GREAT to play with friends - or to have feuds with your roommates. You can play with the rosters, create players, trade, and etc. etc. etc. - a fully functional sports game on a less than perfect gaming platform.
