Slap Shot Crucially, the most important part of hockey has been given an overhaul: the violence. And this year you really can, thanks to an all-new fighting engine that emphasizes grappling and blocking.

League and dynasty play have been greatly improved. Around 40 teams have been added representing the European elite leagues in Sweden, Finland, and Germany, freshening things up for those a little tired of the NHL game. Dynasty mode has received a total facelift on par with that given the franchise mode in Madden NFL , so running an NHL franchise has never been depicted so completely. It isn't perfect, largely due to players demanding absurdly high salaries at times, a preponderance of goofy trade offers from the computer, and a year cap per career.

But it's a lot better than anything that this series has presented before. EA Sports never lets you forget that this is a big-budget production. Graphics are phenomenal in every way, though particular attention has to be paid to the outstanding animations.

Skaters now look like they're actually pumping their legs, not whirring on an invisible treadmill. Hits are powerful and impressive without going over the top into wrestling land. Goalies are acrobatic and turtle-like by turns. The only somewhat sore point is the interface, which remains a little too console for the PC edition and a little too PC for the console editions. Audio quality has been boosted with a lot of new lines for play-by-play man Jim Hughson and a greater sense of situational awareness.

His new color commentator, former Oilers sniper Craig Simpson, also does a good job of weighing in with some key observations, and is a huge improvement over the stand-up comedy stylings of his predecessor, Don Taylor.

Last but not least, multiplayer modes haven't been forgotten - unless you're stuck on Xbox or GameCube, that is. PC and PS2 owners are pretty well set up with a variety of options that run the gamut from quick single-game matchups to fullblown tournaments.

EA is running the same subscription angle with the EA Sports Online service for PC as it did last year, although you receive a card worth an entire season of free online play in each box. So online play with the official EA servers is essentially free of charge. You can still, of course, dodge the servers altogether on PC and link up directly with your friends and enemies. Few new beginnings in games go as right as this one for NHL EA Sports made a brilliant decision to shake up the franchise last year and turn it over to a new design team with no vested interest in the mistakes of the past few seasons.

This is almost certainly the best release in the history of the NHL series and one of the most authentic action-oriented sports games currently on the market. Screenshots from MobyGames.
