I got it for PS2 and don't like it at all. You're right, the soundtrack is very short and half of it is from Madden. The game does NOT support EA Sports Bio, which truly pisses me off. Roster editing has always been atrocious, but this year it's even worse. You can't create new players. You can't play multiplayer seasons. Commentary is the worst it's ever been. All in all, this is the worst NHL EA's ever done. I've been fiercely brand loyal to EA Sports since NHL99, but this is the last straw for me. I haven't tried ESPN NHL2K5 yet, but I'll be renting it this weekend. I hope EA can turn it around like they did with baseball. This year's baseball game (MVP Baseball 2004) was a huge improvement over the previous year's and kept me from jumping ship. Next year's hockey game better do the same.
