- Depends on what you like... none of them are lemons... Team USA Basketball
- is essentially the exact same as Bulls vs. Lakers, which is an excellent
- BBall game. It uses the Dream Team and the rest of the world teams.
- NHLPA '93 is an update of the classis NHL Hockey. It is much better than
- the previous version and is a great, great game. Montana 93' is an update
- to Montana 92'. I like it, as it allows 3 different views and such. It has
- great graphics, but the game play wasn't as good as Madden 93'. It has the
- "SportsTalk" feature that has the announcer calling the plays which can be
- cool, but can be annoying as well. Luckily it can be turned off.
- Taz-Mania is a very fun platform type game. It offers excellent graphics and
- sound, as well as very good gameplay. It's only drawback is that it is not
- exceptionally long and unlike a Sonic or Mario, doesn't have the replay
- value they do.
-
- If I had to choose, I would say go for :
- NHLPA 93'
- Madden 93' <- I know, not on your list...
- Montana 93'
- USA Basketball
- Taz-Mania
- in that order...
-
- But, just MHO...
