Much better than 2k7 and U can use traditional controls
Don't see what the big gripes are about the new control scheme. If you don't like it u can use the old classic controls. It plays much better than 2k7 and I hated EA NHL 07 demo. Very good game and the online play is ... Read Full Review

After a pretty good year in 2007 2K's follow up of their hockey franchise 2K8 is nothing short of a disapointment.
NHL 2K games have always been very realistic with fun and exciting gameplay. They have always had the best modes, esspically in their dynasty or franchise mode. This years game, NHL 2K8, has been a total step back from t... Read Full Review

This game really wasn't hard to master, sure at first the controls are a bit odd but you just have to play it out for about an hour and a half until you'll get used to it. The minus - Graphics were an improvement but s... Read Full Review

Once you're used to the new controls, you'll find they give a much more realistic hockey experience.
Gamers, for 15 years, have been used to a single control style for hockey games. But the fact is, that control style was a poor representation of what it meant to PLAY the game of hockey. As a hockey player, I've alway... Read Full Review

Fun game, but plagued with A LOT of small annoyances which add up. RENT IT FIRST!
Loved NHL 2k8, but this year, it's gonna be 08 for me. Biggest Complaints +Controls make you switch from right joystick to circle, square, triangle and x buttons, making it hard and annoying to use the right joystick... Read Full Review
