Summary: A Good Hockey Substitue
Comment: With no lasting season mode I can't rate this game any higher. Although it's pretty fun.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Realistic? yeah... right
Comment: Where do I begin... The speed burst is a joke, even with the cheat{CAFFEINE} which is supposedly unlimited speed burst, your player still manages to get tired quick and I mean quick(2 meters and your player is huffing and buffing.. you call that realistic?). When your up against the computer, amazingly the computer ALWAYS gets its checks, yet, whenever I'm on defense and in position to check the computer, it only works sometimes. How bunch of crap is that? LOADS! Okay back to the speed burst, so how bad is the speed burst? get this..you could be Mike Modano or Paul Kariya and get open ice and have everybody else way way way behind you, in other words get a breakaway. Now in reality, Mike or Paul are gone given the chance but surprisingly in this game, Mike or Paul gets caught up by a defensemen! are you kidding me!!? a defensemen has such a blast of a speed, you could be Joe Sakic or Pavel Pure or Mats Sundin and that wouldn't matter because your going to get caught and likely checked even if your breakaway is huge. The gap would close in a second. The button layout isn't change-able and awkward at first. Overall your good mood would change to a bad one when you play this game. Best way to sum it up.

Summary: Why bother...
Comment: First off, to the reviewer who recommends this title over NHL 2004. Wow. That's all I'm saying there. You must hate hockey. Now for those of you who would even think or consider buying this troubled title I have some facts to get out there. There are supposed to be over 700 motion captured animations in the game. Where did they all go? The animations are the same over and over again. The "revolutionary" backwards skate button - a completely useless feature that mearly slows your player down. The goalies, don't even get me started. They move to the position of your shot before you've even ripped it off of your stick. Some of the save animations are nice, I'll give this game that and only that. The graphics are nice but somewhat bulky and almost borderline cartoony. The crowds are louds which is a good thing. There is no franchise mode. There is only an exibition mode and season mode. No collectibles, no unlockables, no concept of team managment outside the norms (trade, create). This game is the exact reason XSN Sports is taking a year off. They have a LOT to work on. If you even like hockey half as much as I do - Do yourself a favor and grab either NHL 2004 or ESPN NHL. And for those of you who may think this is a good beginners title to try - Set one of the two games I mentioned (NHL 2004 or ESPN NHL) at Rookie, you'll do just fine.

Summary: le jeu ne cesse de geler et faire planter mon xbox
Comment: j ai acheté ce jeu a deux reprises et j ai du le retourner aux deux occasions. ma console xbox plantais a chaque fois que j essayais de jouer. lorsque je debutais une partie , tout allais bien jusqu a ce qu apres quelques minutes , le jeu decide de geler et je devais alors recommencer pour me rendre compte que le jeu ne cesse de geler a chaque fois. j ai appele xbox live support et ils me disent que ca dois etre un probleme de software. j ai une trentaine de jeu xbox et seulement celui-ci ne veut pas fonctionner. je ne le recommande pas du tout meme a bas prix. ma console xbox fonctionne tres bien donc c est un probleme de software et vu que je l ai achete 2 fois et que les 2 font la meme chose , ce probleme semble etre un bug dans le logiciel plus que d autres choses.
