NHL Hockey is a sports game that was released in other regions as EA Hockey.
+ Great sense of speed that's complimented by fluid animation, and the camera always does a good job of following the puck.
+ Controls feel tight and responsive, while the game engine consistently auto-selects the right player for you.
+ Stats for each team carry real weight, and you can immediately tell the difference between a skating defender and attacker.
+ Instant Replay is excellent for reliving cool moments, and it's made all the better thanks to the slow-mo / rewind options.
+ Brilliant SFX pull you closer to the action and make a real impact when you knock an opponent down in play or in a fight.
- However, it's disappointing that there's no season mode for hardcore players to sink their teeth into across a full 80 games.
