Guest Tommy D Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Its coming out on September 9th, and IGN has already stated that: NHL 09 isn’t just a great hockey game, it’s one of the best sports games to be released in the last decade. It takes the right analog stick controls first pioneered in last year’s game and pushes them forward ever so slightly while pouring on features that everyone from newbies to diehards will appreciate. The only question remaining is how they’ll follow this sports game of the year contender once next season rolls around. They gave it a 9.0/10, which is incredibly rare for an annual sports game to score that high. http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/908/908072p1.html Whos going to be buying this game? We should get some tournaments going, I know I'll be playing online all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harper. Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 i played it, i wasnt that impressed. the controls have gotten so hard to use. the best NHL ive played was 04, i think, that or 03 (Calgary was on the cover) where whenever you made a big hit it slowed everything down when you scored a goal you could make crowd sounds, and you could skate as fast as mess, in recent NHLs you barely change speed. none of the 09 games have been good, Madden is mehh Tiger Woods is completely different to me than 08. NCAA Football is actually very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuth Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 I downloaded the demo and was disappointed at first. I thought that 2k nhl was better but then me and my friend started playing NHL non stop and its actually brilliant. The controls are very hard but once you get used to them its so fun. Its really hard to shoot though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCAA Football is actually very good. whats wrong with you? madden 09 is awesome. as for the NHL controls, once you get used to the stickhandling and deking it's a breeze. plus it's a lot cooler then the old-fashioned controls that the 2K series still uses.

Guest Tommy D Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 I like NHL 08/09 because its the most authentic hockey game out there. If you watch NHL and have alot of knowledge on hockey, then you'll see what I mean. You can use plays that you see pro teams use and they work perfectly. As for the no 'turbo' option in the new games, its because its too arcadey and they are going for a realistic approach. The best parts of NHL 09 are the skill stick (unbelievably fun to use when you've mastered it), the online modes (6 vs 6 unique players if you want to, and you can have your friends play as guests on your team on the same TV), and the new mode they've introduced to the franchise (I haven't really read up on what it is, but that seems to be a highlight in IGN's review).
