What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"The game says it's in Dolby Surround and we found it to sound very much like a televised game...Not many other extracurricular sounds are added, but what's there are excellent. The sounds of the players skating and the puck coming off the boards are realistic and believable."
"The AI is pretty good in this game as it allows the computer players to play to the actual skill level of the NHL player. One problem, however, is that it's still pretty easy to score on the goalies."
"If any single NHL team was penalized as much as I was in my quarter-season controlling the San Jose Sharks, not only would half the team be suspended for the remainder of the season (and likely serve some jail time) but the team would be in the cellar with nary a point to its name!"
"
"...your forwards and defensemen are broken down into separate lines, à la Powerplay '96, giving you more control over who you have on ice."
"Faceoff 2001 wisely does what any good hockey game has to do these days: offer both an arcade and a simulation experience."
