NHL 12

Laggy game only focused on the hits

After playing this game online and against my brothers i am very disapointed in this game.What EA got right was the hiting.Its powerful and makes the game very fun to play.Now what EA got wrong is the Goalie AI is very bad.There are so many goals that should be saved that are not. And there are areas that you will score 9/10 times shooting at the same spot.The refs will call penaltys against the road team more often then the home team.Now the lag is very bad even on single player...there should be no lag but there is.
They need to take NHL 09 and put the hiting from nhl 12 into 1 game and you will have the best nhl game ever made.
The online be a pro is still fun though but very hard after you get B+ you have to win games and very unlikely to win 2 or more in a row unless you try and win yourself.

  The good is that the graphics are excellent and they have included the Winnepeg Jets without much notice. Also, it is neat to be able to play the Legends of Hockey like Gretzsky,Lemieux, Howe and Roy. I wish that were a... Read Full Review
