Post here if you have purchased a copy of NHL 09 (on PS3) and your online ID so that you may add other NHL 09 players and vice versa. I just picked up my copy today. Very pleased with it so far. I like more aggressive defense, authentic goal horns (for some teams), better introductions, etc. Not to mention, for once an EA game has a decent sound track, Bullet for my Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold, Panic! At the Disco, Protest the Hero, etc. (my opinion). Plus you can save replays/pictures. Be a pro mode is awesome. Very highly recommended for any hockey fan.

Players are not on their correct teams in the screenshots because I created my own team of superstars. :P Cause, the real Leafs are terrible, unfortunately. My PSN is Someguy, feel free to add me. :)

Are all the goal horns authentic finally? The Pittsburgh and Colarado ones were terrible. Btw, your tv is amazing.

I got it this morning but haven't had a chance to dive into it yet. I'm gonna practice a bit before I go online. I want to get the controlls down better. Over all from what I've seen it looks like the best hockey game since gretzky 98 on the N64.

I have a question on the single player modes...does it have an NHL tournament mode where you can just play the playoffs with your favorite team? Last year they just had the world tournament mode. I liked the NHL tournament better, but it seemed they wanted to force you to play a whole season last year.

I thought the sharks was only 2 times. Anyway, that's another authentic one at least. The Rangers, Red Wings, and the Canadiens are not authentic. That's what I've noticed so far. Although, some are pretty close. Do they actually come out of the Shark's mouth like in real life?

I had to get it for 360 because that's what all my Hockey friends have :( I'll probably pick up the PS3 copy too when I feel like blowing money. Love the game. So glad you can change your view in Be A Pro Mode...the demo had me worried.

Another welcome change that I've noticed is that not every shot (both ones that go in and dont) goes off the f*cking goal post. It happens once in awhile, but not like it did in NHL 08 (at least 3-5 times a game - not an exaggeration).

Will be awhile before 1080p is the standard resolution for games. Still, in my pictures on the first page, you can see the game still looks fanstatic in 720p if displayed on a 1080p screen.

Nah, I think I'll be good. Everytime I see you on PSN you ain't playing it, so it can't be that awesome. :?

Seriously though, I'll be fine sticking to NBA 2K and Fight Night games cause that is the only type of sport games I'll play.

Yep, Leafs management is absolutely good awful and sad. Seeing Luongo and Phaneuf in a Leafs jersey would be a dream come true. :) Everytime I pick up an NHL game, I love just creating my fantasy team and then going for the cup. My team is pretty much unbeatable. My roster:

Offense:

First line - A. Ovechkin, My created player (stats maxed out to 99), E. Stall

Second line - H. Zetterberg, E. Malkin, R. Getzlaf

Third line - A. Kopitar, J. Toews, P. Kane

Forth line - N. Backstrom, P. Stastny, P. Kessel

Defense:

First line - D. Phaneuf, T. Kaberle

Second line - M. Green, J. Bouwmeester

Third line - J. Johnson, B. Burns

Goalies:

Starting - R. Luongo

Backup - J. Pogge

Overall average: 94

Average age: 23

I went ahead an picked it up. Its leaps ahead of NHL 08. It might be as good as I can imagine hockey getting with all the new controls and stuff. Ive been playing Dynasty mode with my Thrashers. They rate pretty high in the game which is surprising. They didnt have a great season, but I guess this game says the talent is there. So much for our coach lol. I also like the addition of the Montreal Canadiens Challenge Cup. Its not as good as playing an NHL playoff, but its close. I like modes like that in case I want to do a quick tourney with different teams. I tried to do a Team Match online but I couldnt find anyone playing it. My PSN is ArchAngeL-777. My guy is a defenseman. Check out my videos and pics of some hits I layed on folks at easportsworld.com lol: http://www.easportsworld.com/en_US/video/612471 http://www.easportsworld.com/en_US/video/612897

lol well where's the fun in that? If you want a challenge, play in superstar mode with a team like my fave, the Sabres...it's tough but rewarding. Especially since we've given away most of our talent. Oh well, at least we pummel the Leafs every year :P
