This is first nhl I played since nhl07, so I will not be comparing and rather say, that this is great hockey game with all features there isThis is first nhl I played since nhl07, so I will not be comparing and rather say, that this is great hockey game with all features there is to offer, great and innovative control (skill sticks), good and quite stable multiplayer, decent singleplayer even though there is a bit unfairness when you are losing to opposing AI team. And at last and least a really bad soundtrack, I get that creators tried to pick music for everybody, but hockey is a quick game with lots of hits, so there should be pumped up music that makes your blood boil.Overall I think it is a must buy for all nhl fans and great sport game.

I had bought xp pionts for my be a pro player and I cant for the life of me find out how to use them. Im to the piont I think I wasted myI had bought xp pionts for my be a pro player and I cant for the life of me find out how to use them. Im to the piont I think I wasted my money. I was all exited about the mode intil your pro player cant ever climb the rankings as a goalie . It takes years. Ive tried simming seaso s and all it does is move ur ratings up but now your potential. So evan if your at 90 overall your potential is stil AHL low cringe. How can I become a starter ? I want to be able to boost my players overal by using my xp pionts but it doesnt allow you to. What can I buy w them in this mode?

EA provides us with yet another roster update. The graphics and game mode selection is ofcourse a big plus and it is one of the main reasons to play the game but when you actually start to play any mode, you do realize why people are losing their mind with the AI. It its absolutely ludacris.It seems to me that the great minds in EA have decided that players want two kind of ouctome from a match, either you will do whatever you please and win or the AI steps in against you and you will be utterly ass raped by its supremacy. Even T1000 would agree its **** unfair. If you win, you do not feel joy. You feel bored af. If you lose, and make no mistake, you WILL lose, you are left with a agonizing pain in you soul.The **** is really **** up when you play online. Sadly, EA sports follows the trend in modern online gaming where everyone must be pleased and offered a chance to be a champ (re-purchase in mind naturally).Once you get to a certain level, the game allows you to have only few fair match ups. Otherwise brace yourself to be annihilated even by players new to the game with absolutely ridiculous advantages provided by the AI. You might find yourself shooting over 50 shots with 1-2 goals and follow in disbelief as the roughed up opponent skates in and demolishes your lead with 3 shots from the blue line. Other options for AI generated losing streaks are that your team will suffer greatly from the fatique effect and you can just watch and wave as the opponent has turbo mode on with unlimited momentum. If you end up against the same opponent after a week, you might crush him/her 11-0 as you should. Again, the two options. No happy mediums here !All in all a good overall experience for hockey fans. Definitely not worth the money but hey, do we have a choice? RIP 2k.

One is tempted to cut & paste last year's verdict, but while the last year was fixing the mess, this one just polishes the well-frozen ice.

NHL keeps doing the same thing every year and that is a good thing. They have a strong formula that works which they keep interesting by adding new game modes and perfecting the game even more.
