I just bought a copy last night and I must say I'm very impressed. I'm
running it on my Pentium 75, 8 megs of RAM, quad speed cd-rom drive. I
wouldn't say it's flying, but it's definitely not slow. ( I haven't tried the
hi-res mode yet) Minimum system requirements are:
DOS 5 or higher
486-66
8 MB RAM / 15 MB HD space (there are 3 installation sizes)
2X CD ROM drive,
512K SVGA card, VESA compatible
Recommended:
Pentium, Gravis gamepad (improves playability a lot)
I can't say much about the game since i've only played one game. Playing in
pro mode, I found scoring to be a little harder than NHL95. You get to
control where you shoot. But I guess what is most stunning about the game so
far is its graphics and sound.
