The first proper gameplay footage of Backyard Hockey to ever meet YouTube. It's amazing how little footage of this game exists on YouTube, even if you include the improper kind. This is a video of me playing through a single game. Notice that, although Atari is never mentioned anywhere in this game, it plays a lot more like an Atari-made game. Not only does it use the same exact engine as the two tried Jr. Adventures by them, but it's also made by a lot of the same staff. That doesn't mean the game is bad though; it's actually pretty good. Since this game has so little footage, I decided not to take one of the unlockable rinks. This is the last Backyard game I have right now. So, since I have taken care of the Backyard games I ordered, regular uploads will now resume.
This is a decently enjoyable game. It's not one of the better games in the series, but it's still worth your while. The addition of many unlockables was a nice touch, and it's something the older games failed to do. I also liked the Season Mode in this game, though I enjoyed it a little more, since some of the players have names that are in-jokes to the developers (like Tom Witte and Geoff Kirk). It's not the greatest game, but it's still fairly enjoyable. The one thing I dislike is the fact that stamina runs down at the same speed regardless of what you're doing - you could be standing still and lose the same amount in one period if you were playing as aggressively as possible.
By the way, I should note that I got this game in its original box. The huge box, not the small one used after the mid-2000s.
