NHL 08 XBOX 360

you guys getting 2k8 or ea?

im getting EA

im just wondering why nobody has reviewed 2k yet. supposed to have been released a day early. Ohh well soon tho.

we need to get a league setup then.

i still have always preferred EA’s dynasty features over 2K’s…im sticking with EA for now only b/c i bought 2K first last year and ended up switching to EA…

NOTE also that most every store i talked to today said 2K is IN STOCK today and EA will be in stock tomorrow…

sean go check walmart again…

keep me posted :slight_smile:

yeah but 2ks online > EA by about 1001010101%

so its hit or miss. i like 2k, theyre football always blew madden away, and so did theyre hockey, so im hoping its a little closer this year.

when you say “blows madden away”, you mean gameplay or the features? like i said, im always HUUUUUGE on the dynasty features and realism, as gameplay in my opinion is always negligible…

online always has a delay, its annoying IMO…

gameplay, graphics etc. i love dynasty also, so ill have to see which offers better dynasty

2K keeps adding in chintsy little dynasty things that start off cool but end up stupid…EA IMO stays consistent with outstanding dynasty controls

IE - this year, EA has EVERY ahl team and roster, plus you can PLAY as the minor league teams to develop your young talent

best new feature in the game IMO without even playing it yet…

I’ll admit that is pretty cool…but what’s the point of having a realistic dynasty mode when after you finish the current season, you are given a bunch of draft picks and minor league guys who are made up? I have people on my Sabres dynasty who are mixes of NHL player names. P.S. Teppo Crosby is a great goalie.

HAHAHA… Teppo Crosby

IMO, i love all the made up players…every offseason, i would trade for the #1 or #2 draft pick and then watch whomever i drafted become some sort of a star…mike kurtz the 1st draft year, jeff carter the 2nd, matt kolanos the 3rd, and i forgot the 4th…lol, its fun

SIDE NOTE - just came back from gamestop, they have 2K8 in stock…i must admit, reading the back of the box, they claim brave new ventures into the dynasty mode this year INCLUDING all the new cba policies…intriguing i must say…

im telling you, EA has some serious competition, but ill leave that to all the EA fanbois on here to decide :slight_smile:

like i said, i strongly disliked gameplay of 2k7 but i loved 07…i’m starting with 08 this year and then when i get some extra cash i might snag up 2k8 to compare…

got it…finally

now… EA has to hurry up with the stupid code to unlock the rbk edge jersey’s. But they won’t release it until all jersey have been revealed

i wanna PLAYYY
