I don't even know how to feel. Part of me just laughs at their continued ineptitude, and the other half rages at the fact that I wasted $73.49 on a glorified coaster.
I haven't been able to get to the console, but from what I understand the roster update is pretty messed. I guess that some teams have solid black goaltender equipment. And surprise surprise, the rosters are inaccurate.
Worst NHL iteration since 2003. If 2K puts out a game in 2011 (I understand they are and have taken an extra year to make it better) it will at the very least split the customer base 50/50. I know that I will not be buying NHL 12 at release, and will be renting both games. I liked the features of 2K, and it's depth...hopefully they can match that with awesome gameplay.
EA shat the bed, and hopefully it costs them. It's not like I couldn't research this game before buying it, and that is my mistake. But it's not like they charged any less than some other mainstream games, so I expect the same kind of support and effort.
