yeah nhl 2004 already came out, you meant 2005. From all the reviews i have seen it looks like 2004 with just a world hocley league mode.

I picked it up last tuesday, and I like it lot. It's much like 04, and as usual the menu music is sweet. The GFX look even better than last year.

I still dislike how the controller programing works-for some reason it won't lets certain buttons map in certain places....like, I can't have speed burst as a pad button..only as a trigger.... errrrrr.

It still feels a lot like 04 a even though they have re-written the skateing physics....oh and fighting is as pointless as usual.

On a side note....I HOPE THE NHL CLEANS UP ITS HEAD OFFICE...OR HOCKEY WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN....TOO MANY MORONS...FAR TOO MANY MORONS....rant complete.

oh wow, i can't believe i put 2004 instead of 2005
i've had 2004 ingrained into my brain because i've played it so much :p

yeah, tell me how 2005 is
a buncha people say it's not worth buying, but there's no demo for me to try out
i'm kinda iffy about whether i should still get it

2005 is really awesome... I just lost the first game from my dynasty :eek: (friggen Senators killed me 5-3), but the gameplay is really awesome. The graphics seem better, you can actually see the players' lips move when they talk, and they have different faicial expressions. It is a sharp looking game...if you love hockey, it's a must. :D

Do you guys play online? If so please post your screen name. My screen name is...chenwaa.

I remember last year when I got 2004, it came with one year free to play one EA's server, but I dont thik I got such a thing this year, so it doesnt look like I'll be playing this online this year :(
 
Just sign in the same way as last year. I didn't have to pay, enter any additional information, or change anything. The system recognized my data from 04 and signed me in. The database even has my record and other stats from last year under my name. I think EA just decided to leave the account cards out to save money......(see page 6 in the game manual).
