completely agree, just like in tiger, i like having something to work for as well. playing offline all you have to work for is your record and the stanley cup, and then its still not that rewarding, give me something else!

Stickied

 

[Krebs]

thank you!

Cannot wait for this game to come out. NHL 09 was solid and I'm sure NHL 10 will be solid as well.

does it have a skill stick? if not, then nhl 09 is easily less arcadey....

 

[Ravin]

There is no way NHL10 is arcadey, as it is by far the realist NHL game to date. Yes, there were a lot of glitch goals, but the game play was solid.

 

[Krebs]

^100% agree

and finally watched those video....not much there, although the new goalie animation was sweet

 

[killgod]

Can't wait for this game, hope it's better than arcadey NHL 2009, after playing it for a month religiously and after the newest patch for a week, the multiplayer glitches turned me away from the game.

So I am back to NHL 2004 on the PC with mods and ai tweaks and the game is amazing!. Most realistic NHL I have ever played, If your looking for a realistic NHL game, get 04 on the pc with mods.

ROFL. 2004? That was ONE TIMER mania. Easily the WORST couple years of NHL was 04 and 05. Those games were fucking ridiculously stupid.

You are drunk as fuck.

The 'left, right, left' deke from NHL 95 was in that game.....lol worked EVERY SINGLE TIME.

 

[killgod]

On the consoles, 04 was one of the better ones, but as I said in the last post. ON the PC, its very popular on the PC because it was the only NHL game in the series that modders have actually been able to tweak the game within the game's actual source files. You can customize everything

Combine that with the AI being the best out of all the NHL games and you have a game which has put NHL 09 on the shelf for me.

Yeah I've been there and done that. Tweak everything, blah blah blah.

Doesn't change the fact that one-timers rule all and a simple 3 step deke will defeat the goalie every single time.

I don't care that you can have 100% accurate gear, ads, overlays, ice, whatever. The gameplay was a joke. There is no true hockey strategy to that game.

Yes I'm referring to and have always been speaking about the PC version.
