Elitserien 96 is an Ice Hockey Sim game, developed by High Score Productions and published by Electronic Arts, which was released in Europe in 1995.
This radical hockey game pits you and your team against some of the toughest skaters ever to burn a hole in the ice! Victory goes to the team that kicks, punches, and high-sticks its opponent into slush. Standard hockey rules apply, plus a few surp..
Naturally, due to the name, you probably think NHL 2K is another Visual Concepts product right?
Notice my sincere lack of enthusiasm there.
Open Ice is a perfect replacement. Many of the same features exist, such as the special effects of burning goals with rocket shots and checking abilities galore.
It would be nice to say that these changes have made the NHL Faceoff series competitive with EA Sports and Sega's hockey series' but frankly it's still a distant third.
The four basic buttons control shooting, dekeing, and passing or the basic round up of defensive maneuvers.
This is one wicked slugfest of a hockey game. You know that old joke “I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out...”
For folks tired of watching the big hits and incredible scores on TV and instead wish they were the ones creating the havoc, EA Sports has your magic pill.
Every year it seems as if the guys at Radical come so close to making "the" hockey game to own, but inevitably they fall short due to a sub-par game engine.
Seems like EA is creating evil twins for all its regular sports sims. NASCAR 2000 has NASCAR Rumble, and now NHL 2000 has Rock the Rink.
