This is far the worst hockey video game I've played. It just isn't any fun.

User Rating: 3.8 | Gretzky NHL 06 PSP
Gretzky NHL 06 is choppy, boring, and most of the time downright frustrating. Its a shame that theres no regular NHL game for the PSP, because this one is just awful.

Gameplay:
Basicly, it sucks. Playing this game makes me feel a little retarded. For one thing, you have to be righ on top of the puck to get it i your possesion, unlike pretty much any other console hockey game where the player grabs the puck whenever hes near it. Most of the time, the puck is moving too fast for you to even catch up with it. This should not be the case.

Passing feels delayed, sluggish, and hard to control. Shooting isn't so bad, though. But if you want to deke the goalie out and wristit into the net, you'll have a hard time. The frame rate is so bad that it gets to be too hard to control the puck. Hockey video games are fun when you have good control of the puck.

On defense? Its just as bad. Without the sprinting on, you're too slow to keep up. With it on, you go too fast and usually blow right by the offense. Once again, its just no fun.

Graphics:
Rough edges everywhere, and an ugly framerate. Could be worse though.

Sound:
The sound isn't bad at all. What I'd excpect.

Replay:
If it was enjoyable then I would give it a ten, because its a hockey game, but unfortunately thats not the case here.

Basicly, just stay away from this game. Maybe a better hockey game will be released in the near future.
