NHL 2K7 features new enhanced details and more responsive NHL gameplay. For example, players can check opponents by quickly moving the Playstation 3 system sixaxis wireless controller toward the direction of opposing players.

Other new features include improved graphics and a goalie perspective feature that allows players to see the game from the goalie's point-of-view.

It is currently one of the highest publically rated games out on the Playstation 3 !

I love my NHL hockey and the games i've had but the realness factor is always missing. As in the b iggest thing is skating. Like if someone is going full speed one way and tries to turn opposite and go the other way it happens with no problem. But in real skating you would fall or atleast slow down to a stop and start.

yeah, good point... Theyve never managed to get the real world dynamics quite right in the skating games but probably erred on the side of fun and they ahve always delivered in that regard.

Of course, truly replicating how a person moves, stops and allowing for gravity and how it effects a body might all be prgrammable but maybe they thought against as it actually made the game unplayable!?

Certainly, the next gen games are taking things to a slightly higher level in the sports games.
Tiger Woods has a much better swing action.
Tony Hawks skating is excellent with the tilt control controling feet on jumps and apparently the next basketball game has a much better pakyer control dynamic with 360 degree movement reather than than awkward 8 point moving thing where the player moves along the diagonal!

all in all, uts a pretty positive outlook.
