LoganW.May 7, 2006This is a great game. The new "Crease Control" feature is an amazing addition, the only problem with it is the AI doesn't shoot enough. They wait for one-timers, so your save percentage will always be 80-90%. It's hard to have higher when they only shoot 12-18 shots in every game.

ShastaM.Nov 22, 2005The gameplay is still the best by a wide margin, but damn it looks and sounds pretty much the same as the regular Xbox version. The fact they can repackage the original game in a 360 box, essentially, and sell it to us for triple the price leads me to believe that I wasn't robbed by a goalie, but by a company who is finally just starting to rest on their laurels. Better luck next year, Kush!

For now, the game feels like a transition step between current generation and the generation to come, and is a mashing together of a few new graphical details, a new mode, and then all the content from the old generation.

Overall the same game that we’ve enjoyed for the past four years. New features like Crease Control, ProControl, and On-The-Fly Coaching are welcome additions, but this isn’t really a "next-gen" game.

The A.I. in the game is alarmingly bad sometimes though, and you can score against A.I. opponents like a hot knife cutting through butter, or is that ice?
