Oh my that goal would make me snap my controller.

Lol, pretty close. But since I got a new XB1 just for this game, I had to refrain.

I was up 22-8 SOG at this point. So yeah, the game ended in overtime at 22-8 SOG since I don't think a clearing the puck from end to end counts as a SOG. Lol EA, what is wrong with you?!

It's a video game is how I view it. They aren't going to be perfect. There is annoyances with every game. It is how it is. Just laugh at that brutal goal. Haha.

Just picked the game up yesterday from Costco for PS4 ($53).

I already knew about the lack of game modes. I never play online so I don't care for most those modes anyway. I bought the game because of what I've read in the improvements on the core game play for the next gen consoles.

The last NHL game I played was NHL 12 on PS3. Only had time to play a couple of games last night and I am very rusty as I haven't played 12 in a long time. My initial impressions are that I don't understand what all the fuss is about. I don't really see a tremendous difference/improvement over the last couple of years. Again, it's early and I need to find the right settings to fit my style of play but I'm glad I didn't pay full price and could have waited a little longer when it would have been $20 off at Best Buy or something.

Not saying NHL 15 is a bad game, just not dramatically different from previous installments in terms of game play based on what I've seen so far...

As a Leafs fan, that reminded me a lot of this.

Playing Be a Pro and not really sure the difference between All-Star and Superstar but I'm guessing it is either raising overall stats of CPU AI and keeping team AI the same, or just lowering team AI. I started a career on All-Star but found it way too easy being put on first line after 20 games and having a +/- of like 15. Now on Superstar my +/- is -3 after 5 games and most of those goals are absolute garbage where my teammates are in no man's land or just not covering properly. The offensive side isn't better, where there have been games where we have 10+ more SOG, more time on attack and 10%+ better passing and just get destroyed.

I played NHL 15 at a friend's house, came back, dusted off the PS3, played last gen NHL 14...simply amazing. You know how they say you don't know what you have until it's gone - well I put the PS3 and 14 on the shelf, grabbed the PS4 and 15...and wow I'm having way more fun playing on the NHL 14 last gen.
