NHL 2001 for Windows

Pros: real players, great control, awesome music and SFX
Cons: bad color scheme in menu

OK, I got the idea, EA: "There can be only one!". Hockey game, that is. This game will be your sports bible, model, monument, you name it. Up to this date, no one had surpassed the EA NHL series on PC or anywhere. If you do not own this game...

Pros: Very fast gameplay, incredable hits, all your favorite stars.
Cons: There are really none

The NHL hockey games by EA have been around for a long long time, and every year the game has a new feature that makes it about twenty to thrity times better, and they keep the things that made it good, so in about three years the game will be so...

Pros: excellent graphics, career play, customizable AI settings
Cons: system requirements a little steep

You've all heard the EA Sports line, "If it's in the game, it's in the game." Well this year's version of NHL captures more than ever. I've been playing this series since 1993 and this is the best ever. I was disappointed with NHL 2000 but...

Pros: Adjustable Game & AI Settings
Cons: Controller Settings & Config No easy poke-check Shooting & Blocking

Ask most people to pick a sports game line that has been good year in and year out and they will probably tell you the NHL series by EA Sports. For the most part I agree with them. However I have found the games to improve little, except graphically,...

Pros: Great AI, customizable
Cons: Face imports, no custom team season

I don't buy many computer games anymore but there is a game that I buy every year. The EASPORTS NHL series. I've been buying this series since 1995 and every year it somehow gets better.

First off, what I recommend is that if you really...

Pros: Gameplay, graphics are excellent
Cons: Memory usage can be high

I've followed the NHL game series for a number of years, and I can honestly say that NHL 2001 is the best that I've seen so far. EA Sports has done an excellent job in capturing the essence of hockey, and mating it with great gameplay.

For...

Pros: great graphics, fights, easy controls, great customizable features
Cons: the only cons I see are that the refs need a little more work on their polygons

I must say I have played many sports games in my life starting with my original NES, w/ titles such as Track and Field, and numerous others. I've played on all major systems except for Playstation 2 and must say out of all of them this is by far the...

Pros: Life-like graphics, Great commentating, music and special effects, etc.
Cons: Unrealistic camera angles

$39.99....hmmn...is it really worth it to buy a computer game for this amount of money. It seems reasonable, considering that N64, Playstation, and any other new cartridge system's games are about $50 brand new. So...I guess I will try it and return it...

Pros: Very fun game, excellent graphics, and sound. Good multiplayer and single player modes.
Cons: Single player mode pretty tough in advanced settings. Gamepad a must!

I have not played any of the other NHL versions by EA Sports so cannot compare to them. However this game is great. It is fun, the graphics are great and in my opinion blows away the console version, which I have played. Great stats available as well as...

Pros: Computer more challenging
Cons: No custom teams in season mode

NHL 2001, the newest release, is vastly improved over the previous releases of the game. The opening sequence before games takes you into the home team's locker room, and as the player's leave it to go onto the ice, the camera comes around to show them...

Pros: Graphics, Create-a-team, Create-a-player, Fun factor, Importing music.
Cons: No "zamboni simulator"... thats about all thats missing from this great game.

What a game. As someone who has watched and played hockey for nearly my entire life, I can say that this is the most fun hockey game out there. Every team, player, and arena in the NHL is in there, and a lot more. You can create your own players,...

Pros: Probably best all around sports game period.
Cons: Need a good PC. I Recommend An Athlon.

I wanted to try getting some good sports games, so first I downloaded the demo version of this game. That was impressive, so I bought the full version, and that is even better!

The action is NHL 2001 is superb. I prefer to play in...

Pros: The best hockey game ever
Cons: None it is amazing

If you thought NHL 2000, wait until you play NHL 2001, and your sure to witness the greatest hockey game ever released. A huge improvement on NHL 2000, which was good enough, this new hockey game has all the things you want in a game of hockey - player...

Pros: great interface, great graphics
Cons: with a slow computer, you might have a little trouble running it

EA sport games are known to be one of the most highly recommended and played games available on the market. I have played many other sports games and i have to admit i prefer EA (electronic arts.
I purchesed this game because i heard amazing...

Pros: Huge hits, lots of international teams.
Cons: Can't hurt people as bad as I had hoped.

I have NHL 2001 for my Sony PS2, and I love it. First of all, it's a great game for all of those things like graphics and audio and whatsuch. However, the thing I really like is the fact that you can mess up junkers like Roberts Springis and Andris...
