 Pretty good May 31, 2006
This game is pretty good, but sometimes the game starts being gay. When your winning by a big score in the third period they score and tie you. it's a little un-realistic. sometimes you cant check, but otherwise the whole thing is good. In my opinion you should buy it if you might have interest in it.
Fun Game, Bad Hockey April 6, 2006
This is a pretty fun game. The sort of thing that shortens a long flight. You can play it for a while, put it down for a month, and pick right up where you left without too much hassle or learning curve. Just the kind of game I need for the PSP.
I had quite a bit of fun with this game. Its presentation is pretty good overall. Especially the graphics. The commentators on the other hand are annoying and sometimes involuntarily ammusing. In particular the short break in between player names and the rest of the announcement get to you after a while. "Iginla ---- shoots wide of the goal". "Yashin ---- is tripped by ---- number 0". It is only amusing for so long.
The one problem with this game is that it does not really play like hockey. Partially this seems to be due to the way the skaters skate. Often is is next to impossible to get the puck and everyone just skates around in circles. The other problem is the AI of your own players. I player may run after the puck and get in scoring position, but when you take over, he inexplicably turns around and you have to re-align him. Argh. Also, rebounds are practically impossible to get, even if you skate right over the puck.
Nevertheless, I had much more fun than frustration with this game. If this played on a regular console, I would be disappointed, but for the PSP, I like it.

I got this game today and played it on my psp and this is what I noticed... well its not good or bad. It is a very fast passed game. Graphics arnt the best either. I hope that ea sports makes a hockey game for the psp one day because these gretzky games arent that good. overall its okay

The developers didn't do a good job at all.
The graphics is sloppy and slow. I've been playing hockey games since EA's NHL 94 and this pretty much bring me back to that time.
Don't waste your money on this game, no matter how much of a hockey fan you are.
Sweet Game! December 26, 2005

06 is so much better than the original version, because its made by a different developer. I haven't even started playing season mode yet because the new 3-on-3 mode is so addicting! I basically play as (in my case) forsberg, gagne, and knuble vs any other team's top 3 players. It's so fun! The controls are a lot better, and its easier to shoot one timers unlike the old version. The only negative for me is that it doesnt have most of the rookies on it, it has them on there but it doesnt have their name. For example, it says: "Rookie, R." for Sidney Crosby and the same for the Flyers' Jeff Carter or Mike Richards- i dont know which one because it only has one rookie not two, so one is missing. I would buy it if you really like hockey, cuz its fun.
