Worst Game improvement from last year's ever.I wish I could have the NHL08 out for the 360 on my computer. They gave up.

As all the other NHL games it is good on it's own foot. The difficulty is easy even on Difficult Settings and there is a lot of presence within the game. The custom character creation is horrible and completely amateur. Bad face models and even worse manipulation of them. Honestly I thought NHL 06's version was much better. Slight performance issues have been corrected and the internet play is decent. If your going to get an NHL game, get it for the 360 or PS3, they've clearly finished with PC.

This game might as well be new packaging. You get what you pay for.

Although a lot of bad things have been said, if you have never played NHL games before this would be a decent stepping stone. The new stick controls are alright and there are a lot of options on the ice. On-The-Fly line changes are an effective way to change the strategies you have planned out on the ice and is a neat feature.

Dynasties are fun to play, as you can control pretty much anything your players have to offer on the ice, but for some reason you cannot control finances...though in 07 you could.
