I think you're wrong in nearly every respect. This game is terrible, from the HORRIBLE controls, to the piss poor presentation, the shoddy graphics, the spelling mistakes in the manual, the two buttons for speed burst, needing to hold two buttons for a slap shot and the cheap tactics to always get a goal. I figured out how to score nearly every time in my first game.
This is several steps backwards for the series, and I am blown away that you "love" this game.
Oh yeah, paragraphs are your friend.

ya its a fforum and no one is going to read your posts if you dont make them readable. I know i didnt......but NHL08 seems to be the win for me this season.It's about preference really i personally think 2k has no idea on how to make a hockey game seem real, the game always makes the players so small.. they seem like they're on a soccer field sized ice rink, its stupid. Other then that the skaters glide way too easily down the ice and its just so unrealistic. There's always been that "sidestep" button. i play AAA hockey and i am 17 years of age and to this day SIDE STEPPING is NOT a very smart thing to do, u get leveled while u side step and you're probably done for the rest of ur career. and thats IF you sidestep, which no one has EVER done...
My point is that i dont think 2K deserves its crown for being the best hockey simulation game, its way to arcade-ish to me

I think there might be a few people that think I'm cool. But I did point that out not be a dick, but because it is hard to read, although I do like to read proper English even though I am on a message board, but that's a preference not a pre-requisite.

Well I can follow line by line and read what he typed just fine. I guess that comes with time, give it some time andsomeday you may be able to do that.
Oh yeah, HEYYYYYYYYY the whole world look! He typed English with a capital "E". When referring to the language of english, you keep in lower case. Hey look I am cool like you now.....

nobody in forums like gigantic walls of text with no paragraphs or indentions. that why tl;dr has been a widely used phrase for years. its not really about the grammar its just because its a pain in the ass to read a gigantic wall of bs. Oh, and NHL 08 beats the hell out of this game.Wait, so there's something wrong with this years 2k hockey? They were consistently better than EA's game every year, what happened? I love last years game, guess I'll keep playing it. D_Znuhtzthey were better all up until last year's. which just showed that they took ea's approach to madden and translated it into the nhl. nhl 2k games hve become the same crap every year. as of 07 ea's nhl games have been about 300 percent better.

Actually, I thought 2K7 pwned NHL 2007 quite viciously. This year sounds like a huge departure.
My main gripe with EA games is that it seems like a bunch of loosely connected, scripted, individual plays masquerading as a game.
[QUOTE="jetway2211"]Kinda sad to hear about this, since ea's game is only 30fps on ps3 i wanted to skip it this year, oh well , i guess i have to make due. cf2012
Didnt EA just announce that it was going to be 60fps?
Peter Moore is a big, fat liar.

Yeah I can read it, but no one can deny that it would have been easier if there were breaks in the wall of text. Your condescending tone is just hilarious and the fact that you would defend a wall of text is quite simply pathetic.
Please find me a website or any other documentation that states that in North America we leave the "e" lower case when referring to the language of English.
Here is an excerpt from the Purdue website in reference on what to capitalize:
The names of countries, nationalities, and specific languages
Costa Rica Spanish French EnglishYou're clearly reacting this way to be difficult and it is far from amusing.

Peter Moore is a big, fat liar.
This is what Moore said:
"I see it [the issue] going away with NBA Live 08. I think that we had a little bit of a mea culpa, but we're getting up to speed on the platform. But that's in the past. And beginning with NBA, we're going to see PS3 titles from EA Sports running at 60 frames a second. So all of that'll be forgotten by the holiday", said Moore"
and NHL comes out before NBA live so it is not counted. FIFA 08 is specifically announced as 60fps so that one does seem to agree with what Moore said...........
NHL 09 here we go :) simple - just like not buying Virtua Tennis due to lack of online (despite waiting for years for that freaking game...)
