As video game hockey fans we are. We have been witness to some horrible games and most recently 2k6 for the 360 last year. What a waste of time and money that was, I was however smart enough to read alot of reviews on the game not to spluge on it, but sadly alot of you have and im sorry you had to go through that. Now first off from what I have seen from 2k7's demo is alot of the same, the graphics looked good but they were missing something, i dont know what it was, the graphics were just missing lets call it SPARKLE! All the features in the world could not get me to buy 2k7 only because its the same thing gameplay wise year after year. Just more 8-0 wins over the season due to way easy one time goals which are um lets say 99% of the time how your gonna score in 2k7. Now in NHL 07 you have to give them credit where credit is due, they took a huge risk and added the skill stick .im sure you all read about it so i wont bore you, just know this it does take some time getting used to but believe me as others have said once you score, no wait once you hit the post with a nice wrist shot or slap shot using the skill stick you will fall in love with it. NHL 07 is lacking in features but that does not hurt the genuine package. There is a create a player there is a deep dynasty mode a bare bones online deal and world tourny, thats it but thats fine. I will be fine just watching to computer play games all day. This game is a beauty. The physics are xtremly accurate and fine tuned. The gameplay is tough but so it is in real life no more 10-0 wins its more like 2-1 which is the way god intended hockey to be. If you want more of the same then go for 2k7 if you want new and improved go fore NHL 07 you will not regret it! BELIEVE ME!
