guy at the store was saying Gretzky NHL 2005 was supposed to be awesome... anyone played it? How about ESPN 2k5? Or the EA version?

ESPN one is excellent and only $20. You can't go wrong with it.

Kinda like the dude at my local EB said NBA Inside Drive was gonna be the best basketball game out there. Yeah right :lol:
Anyhow, ESPN is great. Realistic, and a ton of retro unis and lots of features.

Gretzky is averaging 67% (albeit with only 2 reviews so far)

Actually, the dude was right.
As for hockey, ESPN NHL 2k5 should be the easiest sports game decision in years.

I disagree. I played all 3 last year, and thought each one had it's good features, but overall I liked Live 2004 the best.

If you have to get one, I'd pick ESPN, though I hate all of them this year.

For the most part, I like the 2k5 games, but for some reason, NHL just doesn't sit right with me on the controls.

I think, starting today, you can use your cokesports codes and get 10 dollars off the ESPN NHL 2K5. That would make it $9.99, can't beat that price.

what are cokesports codes?

there are coke bottles floating around that have cokesports codes on them. You go to cokesports.com and log in each code and after ten codes, you get a $10 off espn either online or B&M certificate to use on certain ESPN video games. I used mine, since I drink alot of coke, on ESPN NFL 2K5 and ESPN College Basketball and today on the ESPN NHL 2K5. I will use my next one at the end of the month for ESPN NBA 2K5.
