In the world of sports video games, not much can really change year to year. The game at its core is the same, but it’s what video-game developers add that makes it worth spending the cash. Such is the case with season’s National Hockey League video games: “NHL 09” from EA Sports and “NHL 2K9” from 2K Sports. And, just like last season, the EA franchise continues to serve as a real fan and player’s dream game with intense graphics and great extra features, whereas “NHL 2K9” caters to those looking for a more pick-up-and-play, arcade-style game.
