About NHL Hitz
NHL Hitz 20-02 released 2002 on GameCube and PS2 from Midway about 3 on 3 arcade hockey with big hits. It runs seasons with fire pucks that teach checks.
20-03 followed 2003 with new teams and nets plus Pro update. It keeps the same hit systems with harder goalies, so newcomers finish 20-02 before 20-03 for rinks. The pace stays steady across entries, with each part adding new faces without losing the core tone. New jobs appear often, with each fix teaching care without losing humor and keeping friends clear.
Good to know
There is no separate story order worth listing since both use the same arcade rinks with new teams, so release order is play order. Play 20-02 fully before 20-03, since hits return. Treat the pair as complete with no third announced, and save fights for after. Plan extra time for finales, since later parts assume full knowledge of earlier twists.
