The title pretty much sums up what the game gives: It is a fabulously fun game to play and watch, but it is simply too hard to do exactly what I want without a remote. I've been able to plug my Xbox remote in for other games to play easily and it has truly helped. I will need to conjure up a remote for the game and ensure that it has a USB extension. I'm quite happy about the game except for the hard time I'm having with the controls. I only hope that if I do provide it, the game will play much better. It did seem that when I plugged my Xbox remote in, the game didn't respond well to it-meaning that it was hard to scroll and choose options. I would need to hold the arrow/joystick in the direction I wanted for several seconds before anything would occur. Now I have some comments for the actual graphics. I was hoping that the animation would be a bit better. I still don't like how the players don't actually touch the puck but the are shooting it and how the players bodies/stick/etc.. can pass through the bodies of other skaters. I do think that the Goalies are finally smarter-a step up from NHL 07. I do like how the players look much more like the actual faces of the pros-I believe this is a much better improvement from NHL 07 too. Down the line I look forward to great graphics and an overall better simulation of the real game from the EA Sports NHL series. Hopefully we will see more deflection goals, weird bounces, and more human impacts and better physics.Read full review
This is a great game! Although it's old, it has great gameplay and hours and hours (and by mistake more hours) of fun. Too bad they don't make more games like this for pc!

This is a great game overall. It has great graphics and it is very fun to play. The only thing that makes this a little hard to play is playing it on the computer. I suggest playing this game using an xbox controller. It will make playing this game much easier and funner. EA makes great games and I am pretty sure that the new NHL games will be greater like always.
The game really hasn't changed over the last 5 years.... and here it is 2 months left in the regular season and the rosters are still the same from the pre-season! Crap!
Shannon told me too!Just kidding.It is a great game an I enjoy it very much!!There is nothing that I don't like about it.
