NCAA March Madness '98

About

NCAA March Madness '98 brings college basketball to the PlayStation with a focus on tournament action. Play as one of 107 Division 1A teams or nine women’s programs, competing in conference play, preseason events, and the full NCAA bracket. Build a custom player from scratch or tweak team rosters to shape your bracket. The momentum meter adds a layer of strategy, temporarily boosting player stats when a team gains momentum. On-court controls balance responsiveness and accessibility, letting you focus on shot selection and defensive positioning. The game’s attention to college basketball traditions sets it apart, from team-specific fight songs to authentic uniforms. While the single-player mode lacks long-term depth, the ability to generate custom tournaments keeps the experience fresh. Released in 1998, it captures the intensity of March Madness with a charm that still resonates with fans of the era. Simple mechanics and period-specific rosters make it a nostalgic pick for basketball fans who remember the late 90s college scene.
