 Rating:  - NHL 2004Ive always enjoyed EA Sports NHL series. I wanted a newer NHL game for my lap top so I looked around, and bought this game. While the dynasty mode is fun, create your own team can be used during a season, updated rosters...this game falls flat on game play. It's hard to control a player, game play is fast but can get frustrating, and you cannot have 56-0 games like on older versions. I prefer 2001 compared to 2004, get that game instead. Rating:  - Realistic hockey experience- as opposed to 2002The only NHL game I had spent lots of time on before 2004 was 2002. 2004 is a monstrous jump from 2002 in so many ways.

Rating: - Very Nice!Okay, to start this review off, let me say that the only NHL game I had played before this was 2001. That said, 2004 is a quantum leap forward in just about every area: graphics, ai, gameplay, realism, fight engine...the list goes on and on. So far, my only complaint has been that the scoring leaders in a league post some absolutly impossible numbers, I mean, how does a guy score 18 goals in 8 games?!!! Other than that. this game is definetly worth it. I have spent a little time tinkering with ... Read More Rating: - A mix of good and badHaving played two seasons, and read many reviews I shall summarize some of my own observations about the game: Pros: Improved AI in the defensive department; SIM manager mode is excellent; maintains much of the EA quality from previous years (but see 'cons') making it well paced and fun to play. Cons: Despite the AI being improved, it still lacks overall, with many many flaws. Predominant complaint is the over zealous defense, who take on the role of ... Read More |
