NHL 08. Anybody play this game. Worth the $60?

I'm interested in this is well.

I'm waiting to pick this up at a bit of a discount. I played the demo on the 360 and really enjoyed the controls, but I also liked the feel of the NHL 2k8 demo and I can't justify spending $60 on each (same problem I'm having with the two college basketball games). So I have to wait till there's a sale on them. I thought the 2k versions of the games have the more "fleshed-out" online modes with the extensive leagues and such, but maybe NHL 08 got closer.

from what I've read 08 is definitely better than 2k8

True, according to the reviews in the wild, but I did find the 2k8 demo felt fun. 2k7 was pretty nice, especially the introduction of the ability to pass around the zone like a real team on a power play. 08 does feel very fluid and nice in its own right. I've never actually played any sports game on LIVE. 🙁 How is it?
 
Live is great but with EA servers I've experienced disconnection more than I'd like. Probably because I always have more torrents running so. Might get it today but COD4 has been my fav game lately.

Maybe not to you or you're a console hater. That's the going rate like it or not.

There's plenty of games that I've felt were worth $60. Virtua Fighter 5, Naruto: Rise of a Ninja, Gears of war (at release), GRAW, Viva Pinata (at release), Call of Duty 4.

Lets assume you don't have a gaming PC. Maybe you don't have the top video cards for the PC or you just don't like the mouse (some people feel this way).
 
Any games out , or coming out like NHL hits series ?
I am not a big hockey guy, but man we had alot of fun with those games.
