Best Ice Hockey game for PS3
So, even if they are all crap, which is relatively the most decent?
http://uk.gamespot.com/ps3/sports/nhl09/index.html ? NHL09 has a 9/10

Yeah, reading the review now. Might nip to Blockbuster in a bit and see if it is there in Gamestation 2nd hand.
Hopefully, soon enough we'll have the Elite League to play. Is there any custom adds, like adding urself to the game. I'm reading something about a career 1st person mode now. |

The best Ice Hockey game ever is Ice Hockey on NES. Get that

Actually NHL 95 I think on Genesis was the best.

I have NHL 94 - 97 for SNES on my PC and DS. Great games. I've played NHL 09 on my buddy's PS3. Pretty good shit. Good enough to get me to buy it for 360.

NHL 09 is fucking awesome. No question that that's the one you want to get.

NHL 09 by far, Sega's 2K9 doesn't even come close.

I have NHL Hockey for Genesis aka MegaDrive
NHLPA '93, NHL '94, NHL '96, and either '97 or '98 (I forget which one) for SNES NHL 2003 for Game Cube ESPN NHL 2k4 for PS2 NHL '08 for 360 and I have the rom for Mutant League Hockey on my computer. The best game of all those is NHL '08, the most fun game for playing against another person is NHL '94 & '08 - depending on if you're playing another old school NHL '94 guy or not. People who don't understand '94 will whine for you to turn off the SNES and play '08 on the 360 instead, lol. ![]() I think that Sega's 2k4 is better than any 2000's EA hockey until '08. So I suggest you get NHL '09 for your PS3. |

Once Sega lost the ESPN license, there NHL games went down hill.

It wouldn't have mattered anyway. ESPN doesn't do NHL.

Cool, get paid tomorrow so will nip down Blockbuster to see if they got it 2nd.
Don't really know the trade system works in any sport where it's used, but it'd be cool if u can simulate seasons and trade players in the euro leagues too etc. They may be shit, but it's just a decent idea as if u play in the euro leagues and get a decent trade from the NHL, well, maybe it's just me, but I'd get jakked for that. (I'm from an FM09 style wanting all the team options etc! lol). Still hoping the Elite League finds it's way in one day.... I would get this for PC, but tbh, I prefer playing games like this on consoles. |

PC Version is shit. Nothing has changed on the PC version in 6 years(except the rosters). Not even the graphics have changed.

PC sucks for certain games, specially if it's as u say and just the teams been updated. That's pathetic.

Yeah, EA has been dropping the ball with the PC version of the sports games. Madden hasn't been updated since 05.
NHL 09 on PC is basically NHL 05 with an extremely half ass'd version of Be A Pro. |

OK, so I've only played the demo as I ain't paying £40 for it brand new, and it's nowhere 2nd hand, but fuck, I love what I have played so far on the demo.
REPPING everyone who recommended NHL09. I don't rep often, so be honoured!!!!

OK!
So I finally have it!! It's selling for more on eBay than it is in shops! This game seems very rare to get in my part of the world, so I had to buy brand new at £34.99 (cheaper than anywhere else) from Gamestation. The only 2 copies I've seen in all the time I've been looking for it. Strangely, cheaper than online shops and as above, eBay. So can anyone give me a quick brief of this EASHL thing? If CSLi is in here, are u in a team if that is what u do?? |

Yeah, it was only released in limited quantaties over here for PS3 because of the relativly small install base and unpopularity of Ice Hockey.
It's a shame because I dislike watching the sport but the games are usually awesome. |

Nah, I'm not on a team. I don't really have time or the will to play online regularly. If I do play online, it's just quick team play. I mostly play Be A Pro and Franchise. If you do want to play for a team, you'd be best off going to the EA Forums and checking it out. They take it all very seriously and it's the best way to find some people to play with

I too don't have the time to play it dedicated, and the only thing i take seriously is CLAN wars in BF2 / BF2142 / COD4 etc. And even that I've retired from. until COD:MW2 and when BF3 comes back. Then I will get back into it if I have the time. I only want to see what it is like if I become good enough. I'll give BAP a go first. What is this Franchise thing? Currently watching F1 practice on BBC interactive before I get on NHL. |
