I like this game better than most other hockey games. The skating is smooth and unlike most other hockey games its not super easy to score. I think this game is better with a friend but its still good without one. The graphics are fairly good and the replays show exactly what happens so you can see what a nice shot you had or whatever. The hockey fights are kind of hard because sometimes you turn around and stuff but they dont happen often. I would give this game a 9 out of 10 because of graphics, skating and most of all its not easy to score.
