IGN: NHL 2K10 Review

NHL 2K10 shouldn't be compared to NHL 10 or even NHL 2K10 on Xbox 360 and PS3. On PS2 the game is much more its own entity, for better or worse. It is in no way a simulation of the sport despite a feature set that would indicate otherwise. The high-scoring games and arcade-like checks as well as the speed of the gameplay make for an entirely unrealistic experience, but at least it's not without its moments of fun. You won't mistake it for one of its vastly superior competitors, but if NHL 2K10 on PlayStation 2 is your only option for virtual hockey this year; you could do a lot worse.

Man I didn't even know this came out for the PS2. I'm happy with my PS3 game, but it's nice to see the ol' PS2 still getting some love :)

GPB: NHL 2K: Don't Hang Up the Skates Just Yet

GPB writes: "When the NHL 2K franchise began on the Sega Dreamcast, it was a hit with hockey fans, although it still ran a distant second to the more popular NFL 2K and NBA 2K series. Nevertheless, Sega stuck with it, producing new releases year after year for its console before eventually moving on to the PlayStation 2 and Xbox. When 2K Games took over shortly thereafter, it helped mold NHL 2K into a champion, easily overtaking the lacking hockey games EA Sports was producing at the time."

It's always crazy to hear how in-game ads are becoming more complex. With DVR and streaming TV online becoming more and more popular, you gotta think advertisers will be looking more towards incorporating ads into other media, like video games.

As long as the advertising isn't blatant, i.e. in the load screens, then I'm not bothered, but FNR4 had adverts in the load screens which were just annoying.

- They obviously chose Sony Exclusives due to their superior quality compared to, let's say, 360 exclusives. -

I only have a ps3 but how did u come up with that? its 2ksports not s.e. 2k has bad ports on there sports games. thats a fact

ian725209d ago

I don't mind too much as long as the ads don't get in the way of the gameplay. If its used in game like in real life, on billboards in open world games or around the perimeter like football/soccer then its ok. But if it is blatantly put in my face then its wrong and shouldn't be allowed.

BlaqGold8045209d ago

The money is used to help 2k with there dooooooodooooooooooo severs and there bad ps3 ports.
