I thought you had a 360? Unless one of the mods have a PS3 I doubt there will be a Team MSH for PSN.

Fellow PS3 user here. I am contemplating picking this up once it is released.

'08 was well worth it, even with it's "inconsistencies." '09 will be well worth it too, I'm sure.

BTW, if we get a team together here, can Harry have a spot? He's been a member for a long time but just lurks.

Hahaha a 2k employee playing EA? Sure. LOL

Why not? Gotta keep an eye on the competition. Consider it comp-shopping.

He can't get in trouble for playing. Now endorsing it as the better product, maybe ;)

I am seriously considering it if I have time. Busy semester upcoming, and should be full of ice/roller as well.

It was 30fps compared to 360's 60fps so yeah you could tell it was a bit more choppy for sure. Its all fixed up for 09 though.

I dunno if this has been addressed yet, but regarding the online "RPG" mode... what does your guy do if there is a line change? Does you get to watch him sit on the bench?

[Cavs019 710]

Seeing as there are only 6 players in the game including a goalie i'd imagine there are no line changes.

maybe cause in some other video preview, they where showing shots from the bentch...

[Cavs019 710]

Do you really think you would have the 6 people playing sitting on the bench while the CPU plays alternate shifts?

[turc91 0]

Super Sim ? like in madden be a pro , sim till player is back on the ice maybe

[Cavs019 710]

I don't think an online game will have "super sim" where the outcome might be dictated by CPU players potentially composing 3 out of 4 lines. Its been confirmed that it will sim in the offline be a pro mode.

no, you don't sit on the bench online. There's only 6 players playing per game so you're playing the whole game

So will it be line changes off, or will you control other players on the team until your created player comes back?

Maybe my guy will get A+ for benchwarming =D

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/243958.html this shows you a little bit of "Be a Pro"

Online it will be no line changes, you play as your player the whole game

Offline there will be line changes. When your player is on the bench you're watching your team play till your next shift when you're back on the ice again.
