the question is why a nhl 2k10 are more featured stanley cup celebration than a game on next-gen console, and why this man talk bulli**** every time?

and so we will talk about atmosphere and living worlds? The best part is when they are lifting the cup, none of the fans are even watching... They are all looking down ice... Instead of at the cup/players LOL and they aren't even happy

Wow. Just....wow. This is getting sad.

At this point, I'm not sure why anyone would buy the next gen version. Theres just nothing there for online or offline players, unless you're really into HUT(they're going to make so much money on HUT this year with everything else taken out).

I'm not sure why anyone would bother to buy either version. Judging from that video that was posted of the 360/PS3 version, it basically looks like NHL 14 with the NHL 15 logo and Patrice Bergeron slapped on it. Of course, the guy didn't show too much gameplay, but if this is the effort they put forth for PS4/XB1, I can't imagine it being any better on the old systems.

If they were actually honest to begin with and price it accordingly (I.e. $25), I wouldn't have an issue and buy it.

How they can justify full price for this is beyond me.

I´ve bought every NHL game since NHL93 and played the **** out of all of them. The last few years i´ve spent probably 98% of the time playing EASHL, when that was removed i figured hey, I´ll just pick up a used copy to make sure EA doesnt get my money and play some offline seasons like in the old days. Then came the game modes announcement and it was not in there. Then i knew that not even that was going to be in the game, probably. Still I had some hope that maybe, just maybe, its such a no brainer to put in the game that they didnt bother writing about it. Now, there is simply now way im picking this game up, even if its used. If they would drop the price to like 5$ i might buy it to "play now" and maybe a few versus games, but i doubt it.

Played the series for 22 years, TWENTY TWO YEARS. When you lose a customers after that long, you simply did such a bad job that words cant describe it.

Playoff mode isn't mentioned in that list. Was that removed as well?

After seeing the 360 video, I'm more unimpressed with that than I think I am with the next Gen version. I can deal with probably most of what was removed, I never really played AHL games in Be A GM, but I do obviously in Be A Pro. I don't have a ps4 yet and probably won't until tax season so I'll probably hold off for now, deal with my scratched but playable 14 disc, and hope that there's some improvements released later. And if not, I'll pick it up used and not give EA my money. I'd rather have better graphics and presentation with fewer features than spend $60 on the exact same game I already have. Maybe my money will be better off going to Watchdogs or Assassin's Creed or Far Cry, or even GTA V when that comes out for ps4.

Where is the 360 video ?

I don't know what you people are talking about. The gameplay is great. I'm not being sarcastic here too. So a few modes are missing -- big deal, it's only the first year. Gamers these days have absurd feelings of entitlement.

I really wish I could live in your world for one day, I could actually enjoy some videogame hockey. I think the offline gameplay vs. the CPU is like taking a screwdriver to the temple, its that horrendous. The missing modes is a big deal, considering they didn't rebuild the game by any means. Its 95% the same game, and things were removed for unknown reasons. The point is that people wouldn't be complaining if this was priced at like $29.99, but $60 for this???

I hate to pile on here but really? I thought this year was all about presentation. I watched the "Cup Celebration" video & Boston is winning the Stanley Cup @ home and the fans are "sitting" throughout the whole celebration.

I know this amounts to like .5% of the game but it is inexcusable for a home Stanley Cup celebration to be this bad.

For what its worth all home games are like this too. The home crowd just sitting in a mundane trance after the home teams wins a game. Sad.

No saved game highlights like in NHL 14 really sucks

I love this feature in Madden and FIFA because you can at the end of an online game, go back and watch highlights. Super disappointed this is missing as well.

Wow, this thread has me perplexed and somewhat sad I preordered the game in full.

[bluesfan13]

I really do enjoy this franchise and I'm not blaming the development team because I'm sure they were stretched too thin, but it's embarassing that EA would not help the team out. I had kept my preorder until today since I only used a couple of modes anyways, but without any Battle for the Cup and the stripped down BAGM mode I can't justify $60. Maybe at $30 on black Friday or in January, but not full retail.

a damn shame, now if only more people would take my stance in not purchasing and speaking with your wallets this company may wake up. Have not purchased a EA Sports title since the crap they pulled with NCAA Basketball 10 and this sounds familiar.

Patches anyone? I want us to have another honest discussion with Rammer just to hear what happened.
