Wow 8 viewing compared to over 300 for MLB.And with the playoffs around the corner.EA take note.Yes I know MLB was just released but it looks like people are losing interest in this franchise.

The hardest thing about this series is that the games play so drastically different every game. Sliders seem so inconsistent. Also I see multiple goals a game go in off the goalie's blocker and it goes up and over him. I think I've seen that once all year in the NHL yet it happens about once a game in this series.

The goalies are either 50-50 shutting you out, making 17 saves they shouldn't have, or their giving up 8 goals on 20 shots and can't save anything. Very frustrating.

Sales numbers go down 50% every year, despite the fact that the actual NHL improves in revenue every year.

There's no sharing. If EA reinstates roster sharing, slider sharing, custom music, etc..., it will pick back up. I am not here nearly as much as I used to when we were all talking about the latest roster updates and other things.

Re: Lost interest

Picked the game up the other day for $19.99

Pretty good deal, so I bit the bullet. Played one game, then went back to Call of Duty. I'm going to jump into it after the NHL draft, I think. I enjoy fixing the rosters, and then creating the US prospects that are missing from the game due to them being in college, or juniors.

TNK's Slider set saved the game for me.

The game isn't great, but for a hockey fix, I enjoy it.

Came to the realization that nothing will compare to MLB The Show, and accept it for what it is.

Yeah I'm loving the show but I'm a hockey nut.
