G4TV: NHL Slapshot Review

NHL Slapshot is still a likable game, and one that shines when playing with other people. It’s got a great array of modes, some simple mini-games, and a surprising amount of statistical depth for closet roleplaying fans. Playing three-on-three PeeWee hockey is also a pleasant surprise. It’s not at all as clumsy and awkward as the real version, but there’s a definite charm to skating around an empty field with miniaturized players while dogs howl and cars honk in the background.
