Oh yes, I remember that one quite well! Me and my roommates in Lethbridge spent an entire summer playing NHL99, Tony Hawk 2 and watching Matrix a bazillion times.
I will buy one as soon as they release a good one for PC. Im getting bloody tired of crappy ports and rehashes of old versions (as mentioned). NHL04 was the best one for PC IIRC. Controls actually worked and wasnt plagued by errors and bugs. Also, the color guy was such a great schmutz
"I havn't seen a schlacking like that since the pancake incident!"
yeah, i really hope they make a new version for pc. i would actually buy it then! but as long as they keep putting out sega games with updated rosters, its torrents for me!
Not at all, as I've said, I would rather start with LA over any of the other WC playoff teams. Bunch of underachievers who look good on paper but don't even deserve to be in the playoffs.
Things I loved and notice aside from Phanuef being in most in the video (which makes me ), the checks don't seem glued. Meaning the sucking animations shouldn't be present and physics plays roles in collisions.
Another thing is you can now dump pucks by flicking it in the air. This is something I'll really appreciate because now I won't be stuck in my zone not be able to dump the puck without icing it. This flick dump is something done a lot in real life so nice to see.
Good first impressions. I'll probably head to Vancouver and play this game in August prior to release for the first time too.

i find it quite easy.... frustratingly easy even...... it seems as if on online play, people can line you up from across the ice and the game game becomes one big hit fest..... Kind gets old, especially since there doesnt seem to much of interference call on online play.... i always send a pass to someone and my guy gets leveled blatantly before the pass gets there and nothing is called
(for those you may not have seen the other thread)
Its kinda annoying that there are two threads about the same thing!

I'm a community leader and moderator over at the EA Forums, so I have daily communications with the community manager at EA Canada. He's planning to hold another community event this August to check out the game and I'll actually be 18 this time so he wants me to come.
