Introduction

In the dizzying realm of 90s video gaming, where consoles battled it out for supremacy and pixels were life, 'NCAA March Madness 98' steps onto the court. With the sharpest player on the cover—Tim Duncan representing Wake Forest—this game boasts of one thing: college basketball fun! But wait, is it a layup or an airball?

Gameplay

'NCAA March Madness 98' introduces the "Momentum Meter," a dazzling display of crowd energy that rewards players with temporary skill boosts for stringing together plays like a well-tuned air guitar solo. It’s less about dominating the court with flashy moves and more about teamwork—think of it as the basketball version of a buddy movie where everybody has their part to play. When the crowd erupts, and your players get their groove on, it’s exhilarating!But watch out; if your opponents catch fire, you’re going to need a fire extinguisher on standby.

Graphics

Illustrated through the lens of the late 90s, the graphics in 'March Madness 98' are, let’s say, nostalgic. They have that special charm that can only be described as 'blurry fuzziness'—more reminiscent of those old VHS tapes we swore would be the future. To make things worse, the game runs on a slightly outdated NBA Live 97 engine, so don’t be surprised if you find your players moving in a manner that looks more like a dance party gone wrong than an actual basketball game. Yet, beauty is subjective! The colors are bright, and the jerseys curl around the players like they’re trying to escape the game itself.

Conclusion

With its moments of brilliance and GPA-like A.I. that keeps your brain on its toes, 'NCAA March Madness 98' is certainly worth a play, especially for fans of college hoops. It may not be the best player in the game or even the best-looking, but it’s like that reliable team member you didn’t expect much from—turns out they come in clutch during the finals! If you enjoy strategy, cooperation, and the sweet taste of an upset on the court, grab your controller and get ready to dive into March Madness. Just remember to keep your expectations in check; this is 90s nostalgia wrapped in a basketball-shaped package, not an NBA Championship-winning title.
