ESPN NHL 2K5
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ESPN NHL 2K5 is an ice hockey simulation made by ESPN Videogames (now 2K Games) and published on the Xbox and Playstation 2 consoles. It features right winger Martin St. Louis on the cover.
The game includes an extensive franchise mode where you can perform many team management functions, including hiring staff, managing player contracts, scouting new players and sending players back to minor teams for training. It also includes more traditional game modes like season, playoffs, exhibition and shootout. The game manual is also built into the software.
This year's edition of the game also introduces an advanced control setting which allows much more flexible control of your player, using the entire control pad rather than only a few buttons.
[edit] Technical issues
The game was released with some bugs. When you score, the player's name does not always come up as it is supposed to. Also, when you select custom sounds and then adjust them, the arena horn volume goes to zero when you restart the game, so sound is commonly left as the default. Another issue is that the game freezes rather frequently.
