I am a large fan of backyard sports. This is one of my favorites!If you want to see the backyard kids more grown up and more skilled, get this. Believe it or not, Sunny Day is older too. You can earn new places, people, and coaches! If you type in a certain name under create a player, a new kid comes out to play. HINT: Read all of the credits, you will see 6 names, one is a nickname, those are names you need. Copy them down fast! I wonder what the next game will be, but this one is great! If you get it, you will love it, I know I do.

This is the best game in the Backyard Series by far. The graphics are far superior and the game is more challenging. At first glance you can easily see that the kids look like they're 5 years older. Also, when playing you're first game the gameplay is quick and it might take a game or two to get used to. When you start you are also not in the traditional clubhouse start menu. There are secret rinks, coaches, and players (Possibly Mario or Lindros?)which you can earn. The players include Curtis Joseph, Martin Brodeur, Jarome Jagr, Mike Modano, Jarome Iginla, Paul Kariya, Joe Thornton, Steve Yzerman, Joe Sakic, and ,urs truly, Brian Leetch of the Rangers. Also u can choose from a 18-30 game season plus playoffs. Practice makes perfect with this game. Enjoy!

I bought all of the Backyard games for my son, starting when he was six. He absolutely loves them and they are really easy to follow. He is eight now and we keep buying him the new editions as they come out. It is a great gift for any child 5-12.
