If you love hockey games, especially old ones, this is the game for you to download! This game is the old style - 2D - one camera angle up and down scrolling view. It has the new style of graphics, including goalies who actually make butterfly and pad-stacking saves! I recommend this game to any sports fans actually.
The game designers kept all the elements of the game up to snuff with all the period
games, but they exceeded by adding the little things to the game, that made it so unique. Exhibition, season, tournaments...this game has it all. Selecting from various teams including Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Detroit, Chicago, New York... the list goes on and on. In the season portion, you can trade players, as well as pick players up from the free-agent rosters. You are allowed to choose through 4 different skill levels such as junior, college, farm, and professional to find the one you enjoy the most. You can go into the options menu to change other issues such as player attributes, game speed, period length, referee skills and fatigue of the players. Unlike the games of today, there are no shoot-outs, just old-time hockey overtime periods.
So really if you are looking to download an old pc hockey game, I recommend Wayne Gretzky Hockey 3. Other than being the 3rd hockey game in a series of very well made games, it is the most recent, containing some of the best game features.
