not liking much at all, dissapointing even when i had no high hopes for it.

Good for arcade fans and graphic freaks who like to play with it zoomed in as much as possible.. Reviews speak for themselves, yet to find one decent review source that doesnt totally agree with what i've been saying.

Quote from Gamespot, sums up exactly how i feel after playing it...

"any NHL fan hoping for improvement over last year's offering is going to be pretty disappointed."


You just have it out for EA dont you?

And the whole wraparound thing. Seriously, i dont know what your doing to score on them, but I cant. I can only get like, 5 attampts per game. And i have only ever scored on one fo them. So whatever your doing to score on them, tell me.

And you cant just notice the graphics from a zoomed in view. I can easily notice it from the regular "Ice" or "Broadcast" view.

And Im not an arcade fane, but I love the game, because its better. Cutscenes. jerseys, International teams, WCH, about 20 or so countries.

No stupid commentary, and no stupid puns are made in this game, unlike in ESPN.

I think Im either returning ESPN this weekend, or burning it. Mt brothers roomate Carl doesnt even want it, and he'll take a bag of crap for free.
