Yesterday I started off something with reviews on the all famous (maybe not yet) Bargain Basement Games. We’re into September now, and the talk is all about NHL Training Camp. Not only is the NHL ready to strap on the skates and get back on the ice, so is the ever reliable EA Sports. The new edition of NHL for your video console system has come out with NHL 2K8. With it, they are touting all new graphics, all new moves, all new everything. I took a look at a few of the videos and it does look crisp, the perfect game for those days when there’s no hockey on TV. I’m sure that NHL 2K8 will have the usual features to it, play head to head, or build your own team of players and play and entire season of hockey.
As has been the case with EA Sports and NHL 2K series, one player from the NHL is featured on the box artwork. And this year’s edition is no different. Jason Spezza of the Ottawa Senators has his chance to grace the artwork this time around.
I’ve still got my old copy of NHL 2K3, still love playing it. Then again, I also have the early Need for Speed series. Those may just come up in a bargain games review at some point.
Until then…
Keep ’em flyin’!
