Shumway Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 As proud owner of NHLPA 93 through NHL 07 (that's right EVERY EA hockey game), I'm incredibly stoked for the AHL addition. Hopefully they'll be available for exhibition play, not just during season/franchise. I loved how in MVP Baseball, you could play an exhibition with minor league teams. I wonder if they'll put in any AHL arenas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred T.

"Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

rvrdgsfn Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 I'm looking forward to NHL 08, its been a long time since I owned a hockey game, the last one I owned was NHL 02. With the AHL in the mix, hopefully with better control, this game will surpass the 2k series. I have hopes for this game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have hopes for this game though.same here, i have nhl 95 through 2002. after 2002, i stopped buying the nhl series and off and on bought the madden series. I have 04 and 07. I basically got tired of the game being the same thing with tweaked graphics. couple of things i'll be looking for is uniforms. i'm hoping to be able to pick from whole host of retro/discarded uniforms. more importantly the fishermen.

Sodboy13 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Yep, this is definitely going to be my first EA hockey purchase for PS2. Hell, I almost bought that atrocious Gretzky game a couple years back simply because it had the AHL license. Bringing Sterling, Haydar, and Krog down the ice against the hapless Hawks will be a thing of sheer beauty.

mr. negative Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I don't know if it's just me or not, but it seems like most people were disappointed with NHL 07.I was, for sure. Granted, I have the xbox360 version which was missing some features.I'm really excited for this AHL addition, as well a game that has more than just franchise mode and online mode.

Granted, I have the xbox360 version which was missing some features.I'm really excited for this AHL addition, as well a game that has more than just franchise mode and online mode.I was far more disappointed in the PC version. My friend bought the Xbox 360 version and was supremely upset that I didn't have a 360. Although the 360 version lacked a lot of features, the PC version was basically '06 with a new player on the cover. I found the skill stick to be an amazing development for the game play of hockey sims and was immediately addicted. Granted it took me a little while to grasp the concept, after 10+ years of playing the old school EA hockey franchise, but once mastered, made the game far superior to any of it's predecessors.

Did it by chance come out on Super Nintendo?No, the first EA NHL game was "NHL Hockey", which came out in 91/92 and it only came out for the Sega Genesis. It had the NHL license, but no NHLPA license, so there were no players in the game, just numbers. The next year EA sprung for the NHLPA license, but not the NHL license, so there were all the players but no logos. In 94, they got both licenses, and more importantly, they introduced the one-timer - the most significant moment in video game hockey history.Here's some more useless trivia:The first video game to feature the NHL license was "NHL hockey" for the Intellivision.Although, I'm not sure why that was necessary.
