  • In BarDown's newest edition of Game Capsule, DZ & Corwin throw it back to the PS2 days to play what may be one of the poorest rated hockey gaming series of all-time…NHL FaceOff! But is the game actually all that bad, or did it just get overshadowed in a crowded marketplace?

    I remember I won this game as part of a trivia contest held by a kids hockey magazine called Powerplay. I played one period, then let my friend borrow it, and I never bothered to ask for it back. The only thing I remember is that I scored two goals and the commentator said exactly the same thing both times ("he cuts in, does a little dipsy doodle, and puts it away top shelf!...he cuts in, does a little dipsy doodle, and puts it away top shelf!")

    There's actually an interesting reference in MLB The Show (which is still made by San Diego Studio). When your player first gets an agent in Road to the Show, they come from an agency called 989 Sports. A nice little callback to the company's roots there

    You have two options for the next game you play. For the sake of variety, it SHOULD be NHL 2k6 because it had enforcers, but more importantly, intimidation! Players would literally get intimidated if you hit them too much (plus you could tell the ai to target a specific player with hits).
    The other option is NHL 2k2 for Dreamcast. The last North American Dreamcast game and a weird mid season February release.
