NHL 2K7 for Xbox

2K sports has done it again, raising its game with several MVP-caliber enhancements to its already stalwart NHL 2K hockey franchise. Hundreds of new motion captures have fine-tuned the skating mechanism, making movement more natural and on-ice momentum a greater factor. Enhancements to 2K's Pro Control system bring new offensive moves like drop passes, screen plays, and other goalie-torturing tricks.

Other notable features include an intensified Franchise experience and a board-shattering soundtrack featuring tracks from powerhouse indie label Sub Pop Records.
