    If you’re looking to play hockey of the NHL variety, to tackle pro challenges and use real-life strategies, NHL 2K3 will thrill you as much as watching your team heroically survive a five-on-three penalty kill.

    Treyarch has done a masterful job with this game, satisfying the needs of serious hockey fans without losing sight of the fact that a sports game has to be fun.

    Treyarch and Sega have created the "Madden" of hockey with this title. It just needs some aural and visual polish to become something amazing.

    The most realistic playing hockey title to date and a fun one at that.

    The only way to get closer to pro hockey is to be drafted by an NHL team.

    If you are a fan of hockey or if you want to try hockey on a level beyond "Hitz" and "NHL 2003," then this is absolutely the way to go.
