Its not that the game is bad its just that this games has not changed in the last year. I dont kno y, but i think the main reason is that the ppl at EA dont care about the PC version of the game that much. Some goalies still have pads that they wore 2 years ago example... khabibulin he still has his lighting gear and brizgalov still has blank pads never mind the playoff MVP cam word. I dont understand how does EA expect to get away with such a half ass job. the new controls are simply analog passing and a mix up of the old buttons and the goalies are just as bad but dont make stupied dives instaed they miss clear slapshots. My imagintion of this game was much higher then this, this game is like a slap in the face of fans of the PC NHL franchise. Since the gameplay hasnt changed and the graphics are the same as last year i could only give it a good rating, since last years game was alright. but i take off all the other ratings since im not happy with this game at all. I would buy this game becuase im a hardcore hockey fan but if u have a computer and you wanna play nhl just get nhl 06 alot easier controls and as sure of alot hell cheaper.
