Shylockthejew Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Wow...Rod Brindamour looks deformed.Looking at those screenies, all 4 sets of jerseys look really nice, though. Let's hope the rest of the new NHL look as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sigma716 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I will tell you one thing about that pic:If those are actual gameplay screen shots, that game is going to be gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Enough of this talk about these silly "video games."Am I the only one who finds the shoulder outline somewhat extraneous?The Columbus Blue Jackets look SHARP though. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job.Yeah, it's almost as if they added something just for the sake of adding something. Assuming those are the final product (you never know). But still, they're alright.

capn89 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Wow. It's no wonder EA Sports and their NHL series hasn't gone up in smoke yet... if all anyone cares about is how it looks, then of course it's the greatest game ever. They could polish those pieces of **** in gold for all I care, if the game play sucks the way it has for the last X-amount of years it won't make any difference... considering, zoom those picture out 50x and that's the "graphics" you see for 95% of your playing time.

powersurge Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I've always hated Carolina's primary logo. Its just so BLAH to me that I just ignore it and see nothing but red jersey. I wish they'd play up the Hurricane storm warning logo more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sideshowbob Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I am a die hard canes fan, and i have always liked what they have worn since, well the begining of their existence. I am not a huge fan of the white shoulder piping, does any one know if their is any chance of at least an update of the logos? I love what they have, but a little touch up never hurts.

Still, it doesn't really add to the look either. So rather then improving or worsening their look, the 'Canes have kind of moved sideways. That's not bad, considering what happened to the Kings and Islanders(?). As for the logo, the only change I would make would be to flip it, so the eye of the hurricane bares a stronger resemblance to a hockey puck.

Puck Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Now, I'm just going to put forth the question--and by all means, dispel it please--but is it really a leak?We all know that people were getting new uniforms and throughout the summer we would be seeing them.So why not use the opportunity to showcase them with NHL08 when it was already mentioned that one of your team's players was going to be on the box?I don't remember the rule being that the draft was the first day the new jerseys were to be unveiled, nor did I see anywhere that Washington HAD to be the first team either.Oh well, I'm probably babbling, just wanted to offer that up. As wrong as it may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially considering it was the first next-gen title and made from scratch. This year's game is looking pretty promising too from the previews I've read.

Chazberg Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 The graphics look good, but they got Boston's numbers wrong. They're missing the third layer of trim And yeah, Carolina's shoulder piping is a little pointless, but it does look pretty sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
