Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Get maximum sports action with our PlayStation2 Winter Sports Fan Pack with NHL 2001. This special game pack includes the new PlayStation2 console (with controller), a bonus Dual Shock 2 controller, and three games (Madden NFL 2001, SSX: Snowboard Supercross, and NHL 2001). At the heart of the PlayStation2 is the 128-bit Emotion Engine processor, which brings lightning-fast gameplay and unprecedented graphics power to your TV screen. We've packed in three AAA sports titles to get things started. EA Sports' Madden NFL 2001 fully utilizes the PlayStation2's advanced hardware with ultrarealistic rushing, passing, blocks, and tackles. You can play the built-in AFC and NFC lineups, or even create your own player. The graphics power of PlayStation2 brings a new level of detail to the game. As play progresses, you'll see the field start to collect scars of some of the rougher tackles, and the players will show some wear of their own, too.

If you can pull yourself away from the football game, there's also SSX: Snowboard Supercross. Game critics are raving about this fast-action winter title, which includes unconventional racing environments and a wide variety of boarders.

The Winter Sports Fan Pack also includes NHL 2001. This game boasts all of the NHL's traditional and expansion teams, as well as 20 additional international teams. The motion-capture moves, high-end offensive and defensive artificial intelligence, customizable options, and jaw-dropping graphics combine to make this game a must-have for any hockey fan.

To help you go head-to-head with your opponents, this game pack includes a bonus Dual Shock 2 controller. And, when you've finished playing games, you can use the PlayStation2 as a DVD video player. We've included the hit film Armageddon to get your DVD collection started.

5.0 out of 5 stars The 3 best game for PS2, December 7, 2000
By 
Christopher Jantze (San Anselmo, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: PlayStation2 Winter Sports Fan Pack with NHL 2001 (Video Game)
I was never into snowboarding games, but SSX has converted me. It has awesome graphics and a sweet control system that is easy to learn but tough to master (tm). There are unlockable characters, courses, boards and outfits. I know I'll be playing this one for a long time.

Madden is probably the best football game I've played. The graphics are jaw dropping and the control is tight. It is finally possible to have a run game. With season and franchise modes there are tons of options to keep you playing until next years version.

NHL 2001 is simply one of the best hockey games to grace any system. The settings are endless and the game can be customized from an arcade shooting frenzy to a detailed stat based sim. Everything from game speed to the physics of the puck are at your fingertips. The announcer amazingly keeps up with the speed of the game and makes it more exciting. I don't know how anyone can find fault with the game. If there's something you don't like, just go into the menus and change it. It's all in the manual and easily apparent through the excellent interfaces made by EA Sports. Both avid and casual hockey fan will be able to appreciate this title for all of its fun and greatness. Don't miss out!

Now the rest of the games currently available for the PS2 are hit and miss. I also own DOA2 in addition to these, but it sees the least amount of play time. The really good titles will be out next year. But these three are more than enough to keep me busy for a long time. This package is stellar and worth every penny.

I haven't played much on my N64 or PC since I got my PS2. Any nay sayers are only those who either can't find one or can't afford one. I never owned an original PS but this system is a must have for anyone as its versatility allows for DVDs and some great games.

5.0 out of 5 stars why is this better?, December 22, 2000
This review is from: PlayStation2 Winter Sports Fan Pack with NHL 2001 (Video Game)
This Ps2 winter sports fan pack is one of the best. Simply because dieheart sports fanatics of different winter sports will love to be able to play as their favorite franchises or if they love to snowbord, SSX is one of the best x-tream snowbording game of the new Millenium. I've played Dreamcast sports games like NFL2k1 and NHL2k. I admit they are fun but Madden 2001 and NHL 2001 for Ps2 pulls u right into the acton. So good it looks like your watching the game on tv! This Winter sports fan pack was a dream come true for me and can be for u!

4.0 out of 5 stars Wait until the "Relaunch", December 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: PlayStation2 Winter Sports Fan Pack with NHL 2001 (Video Game)
With all the hype and people rushing to buy a PS2 as soon as they can grab one, i say wait. Sony is planning a "relaunch" so to speak of their system in March 2001. In this relaunch, games like The Bouncer and Zone of the Enders will be released. Both of which have graphics that are the most amazing ever seen in video game history. The PS2 will definately be the "must have" system then, but definately not now.

Why get a PS2 now anyway? There aren't many good games out there. I love my PS2 for SSX, thats about it. All the other games like Madden, Tekken Tag, NHL, and Ridge racer, are just remakes of their prequals. Wait for the truly good games, and the price drop, which Sony is planning to do in 2001, dropping the PS2's price to ..., or even an unbelievable ....

Remember, wait for the relaunch, which will be followed by more jaw-dropping titles like Final Fantasy X, and Metal Gear Solid 2, Sons of Liberty. If you absolutely have to buy a system now, go for the Dreamcast. Its just that it has more good games out right now. I'm not at all saying its a better system. The PS2 is far more superb. All those people who rave about the Dreamcast being better are full of bull. After all, its not the system that makes it fun, its the games. But come March 2001, Sony will rule the industry and Sega will be blown out of the water by the end of the year.
