This game is horrible if you don't have it for the xbox 360 and ps3. the graphics are just plain horrible. the goalie doesn't make any cool saves. This game is not worth the money and I would give this game 3.0 rating!!!

This game has good graphics. The shootout periods are very dramatizing and very exciting. The game is very realistic. I really like this game. Get it for ps2 if you don't have a ps3 or xbox 360.

As a hockey fan I bought this game thinking it was going to be so much better then nhl 08,and in someways it is. There's updated logos and uniforms in the game, it has russian,ahl,and a whole lot more teams so you'll never run out of teams to play against. The only things I hate are that the game's cut scenes after the whistle get old really quickly,it's really hard to score one on one with the goalie,like in shootouts,and if you want to score alot of goals and win,the game makes it real easy to get a one-timer past some goalies. You can't really see the player's faces during gameplay, but when they show them, they look deformed, EA could have done a better job with that, but what can you expect with an outdated system like the ps2, right? The ice during gameplay gets scratched up and faded like in real life which is a part I liked. Overall,this game rules,smooth handling on the ice and tons of options,it's the best sports game for hockey fans, definitley worth the extra bucks than buying nhl 08!

A lot of fun.

I am not a hockey fan but when I saw this had a non complex control scheme as an option it was a quick decision maker. The only sports I am really a fan of are MLB and the NFL. But even with that being said it is still fun to have a hockey game in my collection. For being a PS2 game the graphics are still pretty good. The announcers do an excellent job. The game also has a good soundtrack. While this game is lacking online like I have seen its past iterations it does not hurt my overall fun factor as it has my favorite mode in any EA game and that is there phenomenal Dynasty Mode. I also started playing the Be A Pro mode as well and it is pretty cool. Some other nice features is you get Season Mode and some other stuff. I also like that you can create a team much like you can in other EA games. The create a player is standard fair but is fun to play with nonetheless. One nice thing about the create a player is you can assign a first name to be said by the announcers which is a lot better than hearing the game constantly say Player 1 as it is so often been done in other sports titles. This is my first NHL game by EA and I am overly impressed with the attentions to not only the player models but as well with the arenas looking great. I know a lot of people do not like EA but I find them consistent with the quality of their sports titles and thats why I buy their games. This game provides a nice break from my baseball and football games and it is a lot of fun. Awesome !
