This is a terrific blend of arcade-style gaming (as in with the players steaming and bursting into flame) and straight-ahead sports simulation.
The reduced teams make this game not only easier to follow but also a lot more fun to play than the EA hockey game.
Done surprisingly well. [Jan 2002]
It’s a freakin’ blast to play…It’s good ol’-fashion, mindless arcade fun. God bless it. [Feb 2002, p.168]
Scoring is what wins the game, but beating the crap out of other players is what makes the game fun.
The gameplay frustrations and problems with high polygons are what knocked the game’s score down the most. In all, I have to say: pick it up and have some fun. It’s worth the time.
Despite the much-hated "catch up" feature, Hitz kept us glued. Better than "Blitz" we say. [Jan 2002, p.88]

Summary Extreme, arcade-style 3-on-3 hockey action featuring "on fire" pucks, players, and teams, "big" player models, fantasy stadiums, along with exhibition, championship, and franchise modes.
