    It can't go without mentioning that 2K8 is available for just twenty bones - a darn good value even if it were just a glorified roster update.

    It's still the best hockey game on PS2, but a lack of new features means it's just last year's game reloaded. [Dec 2007, p.98]

    The PlayStation 2 version of NHL 2K8 does little to impress.

    If you already own NHL 2K7, you've got this game and just need to update your rosters. If you don't have a 2K hockey game, go buy NHL 2K7 -- it's the same game and you can get it used for less than $10.
