GREAT!!! Still needs work though.
Everything seems fine and fun with this game. I like the way they put an all-star game in season mode. From the beginning of the season, the computer votes on how your or other players are doing in there positions. Whatever player has the most votes in their positions by the all-star game plays in it. And the fun apart about it you get to COACH an all-star team!! It's pretty cool. The only problem I have with this game is it is TOO easy!!! On hard mode it is possible you can win 30-0 in a HOCKEY GAME!!! But you should get this game. GO BLUES!!!!!!!
i really believe someone somewhere can do better
I know, I'm an adult- don't even have kids so what am I doing with this game? Well, I'm interested in games, have not been entirely satisfied with the ea sports games I've tried and heard good things about this series, so when I ran across a cheap 2005 hockey I thought I'd try it out. I found it disappointing enough that I probably would not try another backyard game and would not really recommend this to anyone be they 6 or 600.^M
Great fun on the ice.
I almost didn't buy this one because of the awful box art (what happened Humongus?) but my kids love the other Backyard titles and this one is no exception. My son and even my daughter enjoy playing it. Their favorite is making up their own players for their teams. The game play and characters are delightful. The controlls are easy to learn, my daughter had never played a hockey game before. I highly recommend picking this one up, well worth the $20.
