NHL '07 = A fresh, new look at hockey
Gameplay- The new "Skill Stick" really makes the game new and fun( eg moving the right analog stick "up", makes you're player do a quick wrist shot). Something this new has not happned to a hockey game since NHL '93. It works really good, and makes plays even easier. Once you score a goal, you'll be addicted. The frame rate can be slow, but it can be coped with. Dynasty has not been changed much, but it is fun. Online is probably '07's weakest point. While 2K7 offered much options to choose from, 07 has a limited "Player VS Player"............and nothing much else. Also note that on online, you will get alot of lag, and it could screw up you're game. Achivements fit in well, some of them being pretty challenging, but most of them you could get through in two days.
Graphics- This is one of NHL '07's most strongest points. The players look very realistic , and the ice texture is great. Nuff said here, it's awseome!!!
Sound- This is also great. From the crowd cheering ,to the *crunch* of a nice check, sound is well done here. There is also a very nice soundtrack with some good bands like Mobile.
In the end, EA Sports have done it again. They proved they can still make hockey games, and that 2K sports isn't the boss any more. This is a must have for hockey fans.
