bugs and crappy details

NHL 07 is a must for every hockey fan, but after you play more than 10 hours, you finaly start to discover a lot of bugs and annoying stuff. ex: when your change your forwards lines ( 1,2,3 or 4) sometimes the character you select is not the one who will appear in your lines. Also, When you "simulate" a game and you win or lose that game, sometimes the win is not credited to your goalkeeper so at the end of your season your team could be "45-32-5" but your goalkeeper stats will be "34-30-2" even if he played every games. The rosters patches are also very rare... from late August (game release and hockey season beginning) and early april (hockey season ending) don't expect to download 4 or more rosters patches. It would be better if they could release one per month at least.
Because every month or so, new young player begin to play with their new HNL team in real life and you can't choose them in the game. The graphics and the game-play are pretty good and are getting better and better but if they could do the same thing for those little "bugs" it would be great. I'm a huge hockey fan and I will continue to buy any NHL game from the EA sport series, but they really need to improve the small details that makes the game exiting.

    This NHL game, if u can call it that, is a total disgrace. EA sports have no respect for its customers by releasing a slightly modified version of NHL 06. Even the shortcut logo is the same , all they did is replace the ... Read Full Review
