The PS2 version received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[2] Dan Egger of Next Generation said that the game "isn't redeemable; it's certainly better than FaceOff, but it's just nowhere near as good as EA Sports' NHL Hockey either."[10] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 29 out of 40.[5]

gollark: Even a 1Mbps upload speed is good enough to transfer 70GB of files a week, so it's fine if you're not particularly concerned about up to the minute backups.
gollark: My calculator says 6ft is about 180cm. I guess they just like round numbers.
gollark: I could totally sell this if I had more computing power, and also the ability to sell weird products like this to arbitrary companies, and any demand.
gollark: Good idea.
gollark: If you used multiple companies' data you might get accused of something or other.
