Great for mindless funDec 05, 2005
By P. W. Me and my college buds played this game practically everyday. Fun, fun, fun. 70 or so hits, oh yeah. It's got so-so graphics, I mean it's not Xbox 360, but it'll do for 64. It's got lots of options too, as many other people have pointed out. I'm not sure about realism, but you can certainly edit the settings to make the final score very realistic. If your looking for old school fun, this one should do you well.

Breaks away from Bad N64 gamesJan 30, 2001
If N64 games were a pool, then some little kid peed in it. This game is the chlorine for that pool, it cleans up. The game is fun as a solo player or with multiple people. You can manage your own franchise from top to bottom. You can hire coaches with names like Igor "The Glove" and "Speedy". You can recruit your own talent and nuture them through their tough years in the AHL. You can even create your own players like the one they call Radio because he had a slapshot you could hear but not see. Buy this game it's the closest you'll ever actually come to Lord Stanley's Cup.

BREAKAWAY 98 IS GREATJan 06, 2000
IF YOU LOVE HOCKEY YOU WILL LOVE THIS GAME! THE PLAY ON THIS IS QUICK TO LEARN AND ALL THE OPTIONS ARE COOL LIKE CREATE A PLAYER, MANAGE TEAMS , OLYMPIC PLAYOFFS. THE ONLY DRAWBACK IS WHEN FIGHTING IS TO GET THE FIGHTERS CLOSER TOGETHER INSTEAD OF HITTING AIR. BUT THAT IS THE ONLY DRAWBACK AND ITS NOT THAT BAD SINCE YOU DONT FIGHT ALL THE TIME.. IF YOU ARE TO BUY A GAME THIS IS THE ONE ITS ALOT BETTER THAN THE GRETZKY GAMES OUT THERE NOW!

NHL Breakaway 98 Big DissapointmentJan 17, 2000
I bought NHL Breakaway 98 for the Nintendo 64 along with the far better NHL 99 as the first games when I bought my Nintendo 64. NHL Breakaway 98 has the worst gameplay among any hockey games I have ever played. The coaching and prospect parts are the only thing good about this horrible game.
This is one heck of a hockey game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Jul 09, 2004
By Braydon Kim Wilde This game rocks, the secret teams, the players, the goals and goalies, and everything! I've played a hockey game before--NHL Hitz 20-02--for PS2. This is THE game, not A game, THE game!
