Amazon.com Review
In the past, putting superstar athletes on the covers of games has met with mixed results, because money normally earmarked for game development is often used to acquire a high-profile license. Thankfully, Mia Hamm Soccer 64 doesn't fall into this trap. What we have here is a solid title that offers up plenty of in-your-face soccer action with one of today's hottest athletes.

In the practice mode, you can shore up your throw-ins, corner kicks (which will allow you to perfect the header), or bicycle kick into the back of the net. <p> But the biggest gripe here is that the game's artificial intelligence is not up to snuff.

Mia Hamm Soccer 64 is a great starter game for female gamers who want to see their idol and soccer fans who just want to plug it in and start playing. --Todd Mowatt
Pros:
- Solid gameplay that doesn't rely on Mia Hamm's star appeal alone to deliver the goods
- A great starter title for soccer fans and girl gamers looking for a sports role model
- Suspect artificial intelligence
- Some graphical slowdown when many players are in the frame at one time
