2 out of 5 stars focused too much on graphics   October 21, 2006
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

i really thought that the graphics on this game were cool, but the actual game play need some work. I played this game for like 5 minutes and I was already bored. I am a huge hockey fan so I was hoping for a little better game play even for a GBA game. But Im 12 so this game was really boring but for my 7 year old brother it was the best game in the world.

Wow...Where do I begin. Well, The graphics are very impressive. Oh yeah, and the gameplay is very amazing. You might think since it is a backyard sports game you can't hit or check....WRONG. You can hit whenever you get the CHANCE! Overall 8/10.


4 out of 5 stars Just as good as the rest of the Backyard Products   April 27, 2004

My son got the GBA Backyard Baseball as a gift and loved it. They already had soccer, baseball and football for the PC, so I never thought to get it for the gameboy. They recently got GBA Hockey and love it. We are going to buy a second one so they can link and play against one another.

The backyard games are all terrific and the kids have not lost interest in over a year!!!!


5 out of 5 stars Hockey Fans, This One is for You   December 9, 2003

My favorite GBA sports game ever.

I am a hockey fan so I appreciated all of the game elements that Atari included: Off-sides, line changes, 2 line passes, penalty box. I love being able to set my lines and change them as I play and not just between periods.

I can't say enough about the game play. They got it just right. 3 player and a goalie play for each side barring penalties. The contols are intuitive and you have room to pass it around for better shots or power it up for a big slap shot.

They could have made the AI more challenging for single player, and the NHL players that they included aren't all of my favorites, but neither of these problems should hold you back if you are a hockey fan and a fan of good game play.
