NFL GAMEDAY '98 is loaded with features like Preseason, Season, and Training Camp modes. You can also choose to play as a skill player, like wide receiver or fullback. And when you consider that you also get a play editor, a create-a-player feature, over 100 touchdown dances, and accurate player attributes, you'll realize why the GAMEDAY series is one of the best around. You can also take on your friends (up to eight with the multitap) in the Versus mode.
This edition features lifelike player specific graphics that make players look like their real life counterparts. Also new is commentary by Dick Enberg and Phil Simms. Another feature is total-control passing and running. Total-control passing lets you lead, overthrow, and underthrow your receivers so that you can throw more completions and prevent defenders from intercepting your passes. The play editor has been improved making it easier to make new patterns for your receivers and running backs. The general manager mode has also been changed, mostly to help you with the draft so you can easily see what areas of your team need improvement.
The world champion Denver Broncos approach the line-of-scrimmage, the quarterback takes the snap, he feigns left then delivers the delay hand-off to Terrell Davis, who skirts right, turns on the speed hitting the hole between the offensive tackle and the center and explodes into mid-field for a 23 yard gain. Well in this scenario, the quarterback is not the retired John Elway, but his replacement Bubby Brister, and the game is not a live broadcast but another go at 989 Studio's NFL GameDay 2000. The 2000 edition features more balanced plays, better CPU AI (including a pre-snap AI scheme), and more than 200 new motion captured animations.
