NHL 09

Congrats.

Yeah, I helped out this year with hi-res scans of equipment and then I get the master list at the end.

I really like Be A Pro, but the camera is killin' it for me. I really hope there is an option to change it to the "ice" view that the regular game is on.

You can change it to the ice view in the final game so no worries.

NICE. Thanks for clearing that up, man! :)

I played the Be A Pro on the 360 demo last night and it was sick. Hopefully I will pick the real game up today

[Race4LastPlace 31]

I was just playing the demo and scored on my own net with Kronwall. During the cut scene, he started celebrating with the pens! hahaha

I was looking all over sportsline.com for it - no wonder I could not find it - thanks JR. Later,

I got a chance to play the ea09 demo over the weekend. Looking good, cant wait till the 11th!

I played the demo a ton and realized it has some serious issues that need to be fixed. I won't buy the final version and piss away $60 on a game that has a misunderstanding of physics. If they fix some of the flaws though, it'd be a superb game.

What serious issues?

All the blocked shots ricochet like a pinball, the goalie passing when they try to cover the puck (it only goes 2-4 feet max), poor passing in general, slappers from 50 feet scoring because the goalie is covering the wrong side of the net etc. I got tired of it within 36 hours. Someone let me know if the final release is problem free...

I got the game today, pretty sweet game.

[Fletch 219]

Nash looks like he's going clubbing afterward.

where can you find this game? i checked best buy, gamestop, target, circuit city, walmart and none of them have it. :(

[Fletch 219]

It shipped today....stores should start to get it by tomorrow or Thursday.

[mik3 1]

Some stores have it today but aren't supposed to sell it.

Mine will be here Thursday, pretty hyped after playing the demo.

As I said before, gamestop sucks. My gf called to see if it had come in yet. She made sure to ask 3 times for NHL09 for the 360. They say its in, so she walks all the way down there...

only to turn around and walk home empty handed. Of course, they had NHL2K9. She went off on them.

What a good girl.

I'm not sure if I have gotten my copy of 2k9 - it was probably sent to my place in Orlando.

Well, look at the people these places employ. It tends to be 16 year old kids who just want a paycheck or 30 year olds who think they're cool 'cause they make 8 bucks an hour but know a lot about video games.

No custom logos for EASHL

not a big deal for me but apparently huge for others.

Vancouverites could get them cheaper if you guys wait a while. EA employees get the game and sell them way cheaper.
