NHL 09 Review

[nhl09FTL]

IMO this is one of the weakest in the series. EA has added in much needed features, but has shortchanged them. New replay save mode is killed by the one camera angle view for the replay, not of your choosing, rarely the best angle of the play. Lift the stick has been added with the ablility to slash AND high stick with any potential miss. EASHL isn't that hard to get a team together, you don't need 6 off the bat to get a club going so start slow get a post going on the internet you'll have a 6 man club in no time. The biggest problem with the EASHL is you don't need all your team to play a game, so there are huge clubs playing 2 man games. After the first week of release the top club had logged 500 games...

I'm not sure what you mean about the replay camera. You can set it to whatever you like, even have different segments of the replay have different cameras and play back at different rates. The only bug I've noticed with it is that you when you change the camera height for one of the markered clips it changes the height on all of them.
