Until last year, 2K Sports had been the undisputed king of hockey games. But with NHL 08, longtime rival Electronic Arts took the crown away from 2K. With development on NHL 2K9 moving to its Marin studio and a dedication to simplify the bloated control scheme, 2K is hoping to return to prominence with this year's iteration.

The difference between a good sports game and a great one is how well it feeds the beast. Is this an appetizer or a full-course meal?

Helping to get 2009 off to a great start, 2K is pleased to announce a limited-time coupon, offering a $10 discount on some of its hottest gaming titles. The coupon will be redeemable at participating retailers until January 31, 2009.
Cheap :)
