NHL Powerplay 98 skates its way onto the PlayStation with 26 NHL teams, 650 motion-captured NHLPA players (with ratings based on the 1996-97 season) and 3D polygonal graphics. Realistic moves such as skating backwards, fake shots, one-timers, stumble passes, hooking and user-controlled deflections have been included, with each move customizable on the controller configuration screen. Five different camera angles let you decide on how you want to view the action, including an overhead, diagonal, side, TV-style or vertical perspective.
