    A sturdy series well rethought, but it needs a gamepad. [Dec 2006, p.114]

    The controls are tight, especially shooting, if you have a USB control pad. Ditch the keyboard. We would like to see the checking system tweaked a bit so players aren't so magnetic. Great puck physics make for exciting, organic goal scoring.

    If you've got the time to master it, there is, as ever, about a year's worth of play to be had. [Dec 2006, p.99]

    The goals are satisfying, but there's nothing new. [Dec 2006, p.108]

    The PC version has not much going for it. There are a few improvements over the previous version, and the old sins are all there. Still looks good, though. [Oct 2006]

    Perhaps unsurprisingly, the versions of NHL 07 not made for the next generation of consoles offer little in the way of new content.

    While we aren’t impressed with the changes (or lack thereof), with the price reduced to $29.99, current-gen gamers are still getting a great game, and for half the price of the 360 version.

    The action can be hard to follow, but fans will appreciate the realism.

    I can't recommend NHL 07 to anyone who owns NHL 2001 or later. [Dec. 2006, p.126]

    Even at $30, NHL 07 on the PC is overpriced. It's a budget title, plain and simple, almost exactly like last year's game with a minimal effort to include the new Skill Stick.

    Well, it is maybe the worst NHL ever. Only reason to buy this is that you see your own eyes how worst it is.
