SAN JOSE, CA.- August 26, 1994 -- Sport Accolade today announced Brett Hull
Hockey '95 for PC-based computers. The product will feature Brett Hull,
one-of-the-most prolific goal scorers in NHL history, more than 600 of the
greatest players from the National Hockey League Player's Association
(NHLPA) and sports announcer, Al Michaels. Exclusive to Brett Hull Hockey
'95 will be the option for gamers to customize their team attributes to
match their own individual taste and playing style. The special coach mode
allows players to adjust the strength and weaknesses of their team in
seven categories including skating, stick handling, shooting, strength,
aggressiveness and defensive skills. Brett Hull Hockey '95 will be
available in January and sell at the suggested retail price of $59.95.

Brett Hull Hockey '95 will feature several modes of play including
exhibition games, 11 game short season, 42 game half season and an 84 game
full season, culminating in the championship playoffs. It will also
include a best of three, five and seven game playoff series. The game has
a user-friendly instant replay feature and the ability to turn penalties
on and off and select and change line settings. The game is full of
hard-hitting animations such as bone-crushing body and hip checks and
blistering slapshots. Players can also control the movement of the goalie
including the kick, stick and glove saves. Stats fans will enjoy the
goalie stats, power-play stats and goal-scoring summaries.

"In Brett Hull Hockey '95 we've added lots of exciting features that hockey
fans are sure to enjoy such as one-timers where players feed the center in
the slot, and then ram it home for a score," said Pete Pavich, the
producer of the game.

Brett Hull Hockey '95 also features complete play-by-play commentary by
Emmy award-winning Al Michaels. He garnered his first "Sportscaster of the
Year" award in 1980, the same year he made his memorable calling of the
U.S.A. hockey team's dramatically successful quest for the gold medal in
the Winter Olympics at Lake Placid. He went on to cover hockey during the
1984 Winter Games in Sarajevo and during the 1988 Calgary Winter
Olympics.

Brett Hull, right winger for the St. Louis Blues, is one of the NHL's
greatest goal scorers in NHL history. He is the son of the legendary
Hall-of-Famer, Bobby Hull, whose reign in the 60's and 70's earned him the
reputation as one of the best all-around hockey players in history.
