maybe this NHL Dev team has run its course as well? maybe time for a change? add a new guy or two, get some fresh ideas on gameplay, gm modes etc?

Or FIRE out the guy...not just transfer to other other games. (i really wonder whats the meaning of "development" for EA???? because there's not much "development" in this franchise after 08)

Seems like they basically just added a new "Skin" for the game with adjusted settings for a more arcadish games and added in some retro sound effects. Doesn't seem like it was a ton of effort. No more effort than a typical mini-game would entail.

This is pretty cool, almost tempted to buy it although I'll prob pass since i'm at the point where i'm just waiting for Next Gen.

You might be right. I'm not bashing the developers, I love NHL 13, I've played it to death, but I'm tired of goofy fluff like this when there is work to be done!

The commentary for "me" personally and virtually no new presentation is two elements I wanted changed. But with the red wings moving to the east this may help me squeak through another year. I am very much hoping Gary and bill will be gone for NHL 15 if not that is when my boycott will start.j

some actual anniversary mode gameplay.

NHL 14 + blue ice + old sound effects - rules = NHL 94 anniversary mode

soooo...why can't we play online? grrrrr!

[Segagendude]

Really? Lol....

Nice to see they're serious about improving gameplay....ha.
