Which is good because with Rick Nash on the cover of NHL 2K9, I'm buying some version of it no matter what. But I digress, as this is supposed to be about my impressions of the game, not my man crush of the player who could be the MVP of the 08-09 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The intro: The animation sequences and voiceover work are very nice, as are the video segments overlaid onto the ice during the pre-game."

The difference between a good sports game and a great one is how well it feeds the beast. Is this an appetizer or a full-course meal?
Helping to get 2009 off to a great start, 2K is pleased to announce a limited-time coupon, offering a $10 discount on some of its hottest gaming titles. The coupon will be redeemable at participating retailers until January 31, 2009.
Cheap :)
Thank you OfficerTenpenny for submitting this.
I wasnt really that impressed with the demo outside of the hockey game into with the visuals on the ice, that was nice.
I have never been a fan of 2k hockey.
I gave this one a chance, through the demo.
But i just could not handle it.
Not fun or intuitive.
NHL 09 for me.
