Re: Official Video Games Thread V: Collector's Edition

Is there any reason to own NHL 11 if I have 10? I haven't found a single one yet.

Ultimate team. I bought 10 for 360, but it got lasered over the summer, so I was getting 11 no matter what, but the demo made me feel like 11 would be worth getting just for ultimate team anyways.

So, who's got NHL11, who's getting it, and who is interested in maybe doing an EASHL? spidey1015 gamertag on live.

Here's something to make you feel old:

Playstation is 15 years old today...

I can remember always running off to the PS Demo Station to play X-Games whenever my parents went shopping at Sears, Toys R Us, Target, etc. and thinking that game was the s***... To this day, the original game I owned with the system, DESTRUCTION DERBY, is still one of the most fun games that I have ever owned...

How far we've come...

The PS Move looks even more like a Wii ripoff now that I've seen a commercial for it.

Also got panned in reviews last week. But maybe in a year or two it will actually work well.

Borderlands is getting a free level cap patch (to 69, also balances the original game to the new levels), and a new $ DLC (Clap Trap Robot Revolution) before the end of the year.

Man... I don't know what the FCUK you just said, little kid, but you're special man, you reached out, and you touch a brother's heart.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread V: Collector's Edition

Well of course you don't, you refuse to be in this century with video games just like everything else in your life.

Just had a disallowed goal for distinct kicking motion on NHL 11. The play went to Toronto and was overturned for the game-tying goal. I unfortunately lost in OT, but still cool, and worth 30 achievement points.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread V: Collector's Edition

So I have NHL 11...and I've been playing online a bit, and I'm not sure if I like it. I mean, the presentation is amazing, but the game's slower, and just feels...clunky.

That being said, I've been addicted to FIFA 10 for the past 2 months, and that game is about as un-clunky as can be, so maybe it's just adjusting.

I never thought I'd say it, but I'm more excited for FIFA 11 than I am for NHL 11.

Oh and Reach comes out tomorrow...and I definitely want to purchase it.

I've noticed the same thing, everything seems slower to happen/respond. I've started to get my scoring touch back a little bit, but my defense is atrocious, especially hitting consistently. It's almost too easy to weave in and out of defenders, which is totally unrealistic.

That's pretty impressive realism, but I'd be really irritated if that happened to me, assuming the distinct kicking motion didn't correspond to something I intentionally did with the controller.

FIFA 10 is great, the only thing that's clunky (on my PS2 anyway) is the front-end interface.

Adjust the sliders?


Oh wait, this isn't a 2k game. :p


Anyone try NHL Slapshot for the Wii? Thinking about getting it just because it has the AHL and CHL in it... I skipped getting 2k11 because they didn't really change enough for me to want to pay $50 for a roster update.

Hell, I'd pay these game companies $20 a year if they'd just update the roster for last year's version. :o I wish they'd move to a two year development cycle.
