OP updated with a new review:
The Editor's Corner has an
in-depth review of FHM 2.
Quote:
"Those who look at FHM2 as a new game will be impressed by its depth, immersion, and incredible stat-tracking. Those who look at FHM2 from the perspective of Franchise Hockey Manager need to view it as an incredible upgrade in all facets of the game ... However objectively you look, FHM2 is a terrific game that has only gotten better and only will get better."
"The variety in game simulation options—from full action tracking to offensive zone chances to simple goal summary—is a very nice addition for those pressed for time or those wanting to enjoy the full experience."
"The in-game sim engine is terrific. Individual player rating, scouting, and organizational comparisons—prospects are projected in comparison to similar players in the organization, a very clever decision—are superb. These adjectives—glorious, terrific, superb—are adjectives that clearly convey how much FHM2 has improved on Franchise Hockey Manager. Don't look for Out of the Park Baseball. Go look for Franchise Hockey Manager 2, and then go enjoy it."
