NHL 2003 NHL 2003 offers a ton of new improvements but also quite a few frustrations. New menus, dekes, and a more customizable game make this a step forward for the EA Sports hockey series. Problems with the game include the break away camera and the game breaker modes. Both cause the action to slow down and supposedly make it easier to score. These two modes cause more problem than good, and even though I see what EA Sports was trying to do, there just isn't a place for this type of cheap circus trick in a serious hockey game. The fighting also sucks, which is a big problem for any true hockey fan. The color commentary is the same old garbage, with one guy telling you what's going on in the game, and his partner making stupid comments all through the game. I love Don Taylor, but hearing his freight train comment 35 times a game really got to me. Final Verdict: 3/5 Rent or Buy?: If you're looking for a good hockey game from this era of EA Sports video games, pick up NHL 06 or even NHL 07. This game was good, but doesn't compare to those two.

This is a good game for 2003, the graphics aren't anything crazy and what not, but for the cheap price you can easily have a great time with this classic game. I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't feel like dishing out the major bucks just to have a little video game fun at friendly get togethers.
NHL 2003 is a great game. Easy to use and a lot of fun. Very realistic and many game options! Almost as good as the 06 or 07 nhl games. Not a bad game for the buck!
