I bought it today for PS2 and played it more times than I played 2004 all of last year. This game quite simply kicks arse. It isn't perfect but if it was they probably wouldn't sell any copies of next years game. So far I give it an 8.5 out of ten. I haven't delved in to the gm mode yet but I played some 1 on 1 with my buddies and we all agreed it is the best NHL game since the Sega Genesis days. The scoring is too easy on easy and the hits are out of control so I strongly suggest taking a look at the sliders and adjusting to your enjoyment. We found the right balance and games are fast paced, heavy hitting and close. Great game.
