Actua Ice Hockey is an ice hockey video game series composed by two games released in 1998 and 1999, part of Gremlin's Actua Sports series, released for Windows PCs and the Sony PlayStation.
As the Nagano Olympic Games were close, they acquired a license for the ice hockey tournament (which for the first time accepted proefessional athletes), making it the official video game, including real players.
You can choose from any of the leading teams and attempt to lead them to glory, starting from the qualifiers, with friendly matches (surely a misnomer in the tough world of Ice Hockey) and a practice mode also on offer. Players are motion-captured, and the action can be viewed from multiple camera angles. Paul Ferguson provides a running commentary, and full replays are provided.
Features:
- Incredible 3D graphics and lifelike animation
- The most realistic simulation of ice hockey ever seen on a console
- Choose your team from any country around the world
- The official ice hockey game for the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics
