This is a great game that should be be bought. Its action and graphics makes it worth the price. This great game includes red cards, slide tackles, team set up, speed burst, moves hook shots,great goals and much more. I love playing this game on easy and betting teams by jumping over goalie with ball or dribbling past the defence. I love "Practice" because you can slide tackle with no refs. I like how the creaters of this game give teams status points in each subject such as shooting, speed and passing. My favorite teams are Argentina and Nigeria. If you want a great soccer game worth buying, go for
World Cup 98!!

The best soccer video game I have played

The gameplay and control in this game is incredible. The passing system is ingenius, you just point to the player you want to pass to and press A. Its that simple. You can control your shots while their in midair, which is helpful when your playing brazil ;). The "easy" difficulty is extremely easy, which is good when you are still trying to get used to the controls. When you step up to "intermediate", though, the opponet gets MUCH more difficult. You can lob, hook your shots, and even get bursts of speed or take out the opponet with a strong slide-tackle. Overall a fantastic game that is worth every penny.

A true-to-life frenzy

This game is authentic in mostly every way. The camera angles match that of the real World Cup 98', and the players are all there (along with their tricks). You can play this game for awhile (whether you like soccer or not) and if you were lucky enough to find this hard to get game here, just buy it!

Great Game!!

WC98 is a great game. It is accurate, but challenging at the same time. There are real players and real teams. The graphics are just about the best you can have on a game like this. WC98 is also realistic. You can curve your shots, pass accurately, and do bicycle kicks & headers. WC98 is the best soccer game for sale so far.

Excellent Soccer game!

I loved World Cup 98! It's easy to play and it has the current rosters for all of the international teams represented on this game. Plus how do you go wrong because instead of say 10, maybe 20 teams you get all of the teams! France, Brazil, Mexico, USA, Australia, Japan, you name it and it's probably on there somewhere.

The gameplay is pretty simple and yet it is very challenging because I assure you that when you get into the last 4 games or so, the computer is not laying down for anyone and personally, I like a sports game that will challenge me because after a while some of us get bored with schooling the opposition.

The one thing that might bother you is that this game takes up so much memory. When I saved it, I believe it took up an entire memory card and for those of us that have way too many games but we can't get rid of them, that was not cool to give an entire memory card to one game. But even so, you'll like this one. Check this one out definitely!

Cool

Last great FIFA football games

World Cup 1998 N64 was probably one of the biggest soccer games I ever played, the most real simulation football for its time ever - I played this in 1998, 1999 and 2000 as a big multiplayer sports game for everyone. I would not go with any FIFA games because International Superstar Soccer for N64 (which was not as good as this game until 2000 but by then too late for the N64 with the PS2 just around the corner) set the standard for Winning Eleven (USA) also called Pro Evolution Soccer (UK), are the simulation soccer games with FIFA a little arcade. This was the last great arcade type football game because it had simulation aspects.

Addictive

This is a real good game. I've owned this game since it came out and it's one of the few that still gets regular play time. This should go into the hall of fame. I can't wait for the 2002 version!!!!!

Just about the best soccer game out there

Only game that might be better than this that is soccer out for N64 is Fifa 99. Of the soccer games out, those two are the best, and just about the only ones worth buying. I highly reccommend world cup '98
