Why you can trust GamesRadar+
The animations have been improved with new motion captures, but the game looks basically the same as NHL 2K6. The most noticeable change is the new parametric camera, which was the most successful aspect of the 360’s new Cinemotion presentation style. The camera follows the action excellently, zooming in and out and keeping you close to the ice without obscuring the bigger picture.
You'll miss out on some of the other Cinemotion features introduced on the 360, but we weren't entirely sold on them anyway. You also won't see Crease Control, which is fun occasionally, but gets old after too long. Manual shot aiming is the same as last year, and gives you a lot of control if you know what you're doing, but isn't as solid as the bulls eye system in EA's current-gen titles. As usual, 2K surpasses EA in several other areas with comprehensive online modes, mini-games, and extras.
