THE GOOD:1)The graphics are okay, but the faces of the players were good.2) Contract negiotations and forming a team that you want.3) There were some roster updates throughout the year.THE BAD:1) After much reading other peoples' reviews, I realized I bought a game that is virtually the same for the past 3 years.2) Horrible AI and redundant one timers and toe-drag wristshort goals.3) Godlike speed bursts 4) Can't really cycle the puckFor someone who hadn't bought an EA sports game in 5 years, this was right for me. Forward about six years, and the graphics, gameplay, and everything else of NHL07 compares miserably. For me, the last EA sports game I bought for PC was Triple Play Baseball 2001. This was my FIRST NHL game I got on my PC, so I had nothing to compare to. Ah well, 20 bucks wasn't that bad.
liked it. Leave me alone with asking about the reviews. I bought this for my kid.
If you read any of the previous reviews, it is EXACTLY what they said. It simply puts the computer opponent into invinicible mode. Weak. The most frustrating aspect of this game is moving from medium to difficult level. So, I uninstalled after I won the Stanley Cup as the Rangers on medium rating. Super. Super.
Your no longer able to poke check or body check the opponent, they just bounce off you and eventually get the pass off in front of your goalie and the opponent 1 times the puck into the net. The hockey doesn't get any better or any smarter. (Especially since your goalies suck, they only get about 10-15 shots per game and let in 7 or 8 goals) Also the opponent needs only skate in your direction to knock the puck away from you when your on offense.But medium difficulty is easy and boring because you win every game 10-1. Weak.
This game is fun for a while. In NHL 2007 it basically sucks. Lets be honest sport games are all about the dynasty season. If you are playing with a keyboard it is allmost impossible unless u can deal with carpool tunel. I was hoping you could control the stick with the mouse, but the mouse is not used in the game. Pros- semigood graphics,All the nhl players,challenging ai units.Cons- Impossible with a keyboard, season mode sucks, no ppl online, ear ringing metal musicOverall this is a game for hockey fans with a pc controller
This is a very good Hockey game. My Grandson is 14 and he enjoys it immensely.
