    2K Sports Will Not Release NHL 2K12


    2K Sports will not release a new installment in its NHL simulation franchise for consoles this year. This according to 1up and Gamespot.

    We will not see NHL 2K12 this year, what are your thoughts?

    "It was mentioned that there will not be a new NHL game for consoles from 2K Sports this year. The company's license with Major League Baseball is currently set to expire next year."

    Brutal. So disappointed. On the same day that EA pulls out a VERY underwhelming feature video.

        I agree. I am glad I picked up 2k10 again today.

          I guess I'm done with hockey games. I'll wait to hear about NHL12, but from the vid it looks pretty much the same.

              Damn. I really wanted to see 2K try to make a comeback, but I guess it's time to put the nail in the coffin of NHL 2K games (at least this gen of consoles).

              Hopefully NHL 12 fixes up the AI and Be A GM mode otherwise this is going to hurt even more.

                2K was always underrated. Look how long it took for NBA2K to dominate to get recognition.
                NHL2k3-2k7 kicked ***. NHL2k8 was amazing on ideas, implementation was not user friendly enough though. But NHL2k9 and NHL2k10 was only so-so games in my book. A total reboot teaming up with natural motion and 2K bringing their experience and license would be a great reboot.

                  im very pissed at 2k first the dropped college baseball on 2k now its the nhl 2k hockey game . then they flat out lied to us. about the game they suck and far as the company its self why in h---ll did they even tell that . fib what it just to get more sales for the basketball what make them think that ea nhl hockey is all that great its plan b----s----t. they need to just sell to mirosoft or sony or some other company thats willing to really spend money in sports viedo games. at least ea-sports is bringing back live in 2012. and not giveing up like a bunch p----ys.

                    Maybe SCEA can give us an NHL game for the PS 3. Could you imagine the possibilities as good as MLB The Show is?

                      In other news, man has walked on the moon.

                      The writing has been on the wall for this series for a looooooonng time.

                        Yup. As expected.

                        Looks like another year of roster updates from myself, TS, and canuxrok.

                        That's ok in my books...

                          Disappointing to say the least. Was it all that long ago when it seemed 2K had the sports lineup, hands down? I'm not as down on EA's NHL series as some, but I'm always open to trying something different and I know at one time NHL2K was THE series. I even bought MLB2K11 this year because I was bored with The Show. Unfortunately, it's turned out to be a polished turd at best.

                            Agree fully. I used to buy every 2K hockey game for ps2 then bought 2K8 and still play it to this day. IMO it was the best 2 player hockey game in a while. I got friends in the "hood" that fell in love with hockey because of that game lol.

                            I'll probably get heat from this, but I'm pretty sure if EA scrapped Fifa, NHL, College football, Fight Night and focused only on Madden and the NBA they would produce 2 great games. 2K has essentially put all their eggs in the NBA 2K franchise (god knows baseball needs a ton of work) while EA is spread out everywhere. I know everyone gives it to EA, but just think what their best creative minds all working together could do...

                              This makes me wonder if they'll even renew the MLB license. I'm not even talking the exclusive license, but just the license in general.
