NHL 2005
Thought this needed a topic. ![]() Open Ice Control: Seamlessly switch between players with or without the puck with the push of a button. Total Player Awareness: With more player awareness than ever before, make saucer passes just before the blueline, call in a second defender to break up a 2-on-1, or fire off wrist shots at the perfect angle on net. Face-Off Playbook: New playcalling system allows you to choose offensive and defensive face-off strategies every time the whistle blows. The World Cup of Hockey: Take part in this year's World Cup of Hockey featuring teams from USA, Canada, Sweden, Finland, Russia, and more . All-New Skating Engine: Glide then use explosive speed to get to the open ice -- now you have more puck-handling and turning control. The Drill: One net, one goalie, and every man for himself. Up to four can play and the one who scores the most wins. Sounds awesome, anyone else gonna be getting this? And look who's on the cover ![]() ![]() |

He means Naslund will get injured/arrested or something because he's been put on the cover.

This is the first I've heard about the game, but I'll be getting it for sure. I think I've bought every one since 2000, and of course there's 94 and 95

doesn't seem that different from 2004... I usually only buy the sports games like NHL and Madden every two years, so I doubt I will buy this one. Dave it might also want to be pointed out that Heatley was the first NHL player to get the EA curse, it's usually just the guys on the madden covers that get it.
I won't be picking Ray Lewis in fantasy football this year though ![]() |

Yeah i'll probably get it, seems a bit pointless getting 2004 now.
Any news on the release date? |

I haven't bought a hockey game since Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey for N64. I think I may finally have to get one. Can you play these online now?
BTW: That "Drill" thing sounds fk'n sweet. |

Yeah you can play online on a PC, don't think you can on consoles though.
Should be out in September/October. |

You can play online with PS2 (on 04) and should be able with both PS2 AND XBox this year.

I'm not sure what platform to get it on, if Gamecube had online play i'd get that, but I had much more fun with my PC version of 04, with playing online.

Yeah i'll probably do that.
I dunno, it was kinda weird though, like I was better at playing when I was using my keyboard for some reason. ![]() |
