NHL 08 - Pure Gameplay Video

[afzalas123]

wtf!usiad it'sgameplay...but it's bollshit!

[Maxter115]

one question, starting at about 1:10 what view is that? its not ice and action is usually closer in.... unless maybe it is without automatic zoom?

[Roxas1219]

is there also a broadcast one too?

[tlnvnmvm2]

@Roxas1219 nub

[ownahz1]

The one thing that has bothered me for ages is the fact that EA can't seem to enhance the movements of the players after the whistle is blown.

[valtttu]

YEAH! looks so stupid......

[alpsalish]

Why is there hardly any movement down low? The guys being controlled on the point are the only ones moving!

[hamzaman123]

how do u start a fight? i tried to press select but it just pulls the goalie

[magmacoolidge]

You press the slashing button

[koolkid558]

if u have it for ps2 press the down button on the d-pad i think it's same for ps3

[TheRealDarkWolve]

its Y on 360.

[mrturner513]

one timer at 5:11= easy score....instead you wait for your team laame

[CanucksfanKyle]

You're one of the guys who doesn't understand hockey. All one-timers and hit everything in sight. I don't understand how that's fun.

[CanucksfanKyle]

You're one of the guys who doesn't understand hockey. All one-timers and hit everything in sight. I don't understand how that's fun.

[supersonicspaniard]

you are a fag who knows absolutely nothing about hockey. why do you buy/play hockey games if you dont like the sport. go fuck yourself

[kyle92018]

yah thier is spped burst u just gotta turn it up

[kidjenius]

I haven't played nhl 08 before but from all the videos i've seen it looks like the players are moving unrealistically fast. Is that just the owner's own adjustment? or is it normal?

[danielletizi]

go avas

[TheRealDarkWolve]

It Looks so easy to score a goal!

[Hkeystar711]

it aint

[Hkeystar711]

AHL kicks

[candyshopfr50]

the guy who play as goalie at 2:22 suck !! dude.

[giant2695]

go red wings

[LecavalierFTW]

which team should i be on xbox live for this??

[kkende112233]

there is no speed burst

[CHTHHA]

does anyone know how to speed burst in this game? i don't know which button it is.

[leon102]

Wow, this one looks really fun too. I believe Hockey is my favorite sport now. :)

[Hkeystar711]

colorado13avs.......true

[mgrvercetti]

wen u read the manual for nhl08 for the ps2 version most of it is french o_0

[moozikaldoggy]

if u wanna create a team on the xbox 360 is there a maximum salary cap? could some one reply as soon as possible please?!? im gettin a 360 with this game in august :)

[KingKamenz]

Yes,Theres allways a salary cap thats real hockey.

P.S. I know thats gay

[touzinsky]

There is not, I have all my favorite players. The salary is around 120 million...

[moozikaldoggy]

say u swear! wat system is that on?

please reply as soon as possible

[sluch]

Do the create plays actually work or are they useless when your actually playing the computer or anyone online.

[mcmoneyz]

GO MOOSE GO KICK SOME ASS

[MFFOWNS]

anaheim owns

[TuRk1y3]

looks like crap (on youtube) when u have hd its so realistic!!! (XBOX360) IS DA SHIT!

[asia12321]

ye!

[colorado13avs]

PS3 IS DA SHIT xbox is just for ppl that cannot afford ps3

[WarNerve666]

hellyeah ps3 all the way i own one and its better then 360. all online gaming is free graphics are better and the sixaxis controler is incredible no batteries needed its all blue tooth so the controller doesnt weigh a tone like the 360s controller. you can also surf the internet on the ps3 through your television and watch youtube videos and comment and watch porn, look at ur emails and its all free. in fact im writting this comment on my ps3 write now and then going to go play some nhl 08!

[colorado13avs]

<3 i love u

[Jason40983]

notice u never said playing good ps3 exclusive games xD

[gojacketsgo61]

the 360 controller doesn't weigh a ton maybe to some people it might though...

[animeguy95]

this is xbox 360

[McGoo12]

at 5:46 that looked really real but it wasn't. Thats crazy

[nabby2035]

is this on xbox 360?

[snipingbuddy]

canucks:)

[master1231]

PS3 or xbox wats this game

[apode1]

yea okay faggot were talking bout hockey here so ur the one interested in ball sacks if u talk about it here, u stupid fag

[apode1]

yes there is a huge difference on the 360 , the game feels real 07 was very arcadey and too fast, but this game is slowed down so it feels like the real speed of a game

[quiksilvermikex]

when i saw 07 i thought it couldnt get any better, but i guess it could because everything was so unrealistic on 07 like the skating and checking.

[samzuelz]

i like that it is slowed down a bit for a bit more realistic gameplay but it would suit the game better if there was a speed burst as it would be even more realistic. dont even talk to be about it though because i play AAA hockey the best for my age and u dont play anything but ur boyfriends ball sack

[bananaturtleinc]

is there much difference between this and nhl '07? thanks

[SCross440]

Just got my copy today and I played as the Binghamton Senators. I won by more than 10 goals each game so far.

[xxandoneballaxx]

What difficulty setting do you have it on.

[SonictheBedHog]

fighting???

[CANUCKS101NAZZY19]

Where do you go to make create a play on the ps2 version in nhl 08 is there a create a play plz answer my questions (reply my messagee)

[Visfen]

ps2 probobly doesn't have it.

[3timeMVPNash]

yeah ive played the ps2 version and they dont have create a play, any of the new skill stick stuff or anything like that and all the rosters are out of date

[sniperk03d]

really i just got the ps3 version it has everything you name it

[3timeMVPNash]

yeah it proves that ea hockey has totally forgotten about current gen systems

[gdrocker93]

I played the demo 2day. I really dont like the new left anolog acceleration thingy.

[CaptainPash]

What difficulty is it? Easy. No this advanced AI I hear about would let you skate into the slot with the puck, and shoot.

[Spants11]

what announcer in the sweet mind would actually say "when it hit hte crossbar like this and going in, you know it had to hit the bottom third of the crossbar"

[pbfey]

Bill Clement (suck hard), Gary Thorne (blowhard).

[katem32]

pure gameplay is actually playing the game...

[katem32]

my bad, spoke to soon :(

[HockeyRulesGameOn]

This is the 360 version, not the PC version.

[TheGamegangsta2]

WHY the commentators are not the same??...its not the same that on 360

[TheGamegangsta2]

this video is nhl 08 on pc...

[61Afinogenov]

noooo

[Habs921]

NHL 08 on PC isnt next gen so this video is on PS# or 360 !

[holychristmas]

it says it was on the 360 at the end. ...... cock

[Brule33]

well it's good to see there's at least one brown face you can choose.

[dangler1221]

this game is gonna be sooo sick!!

[skankinpu]

its from play radio play! its an electronic 15 year old singing....gay

[MetalX87]

When it is in the creation zone part, what is the name of that song? doesnt seem to be a song fitting of NHL 08

[NBertuzzi]

Sedins rule

[luluislandrules]

All i really have to say is...

wow

ea has done a great job and so has 2K, we'll see later on which one is the better one

[kayc906]

Best hockey game ever made!!

[RidgePlayer16]

Controls, graphics, gameplay, animations.

[quivl]

Gameplay - no

Controls - If the skill stick is your thing, yeah. For me, no.

animations - maybe

graphics - yeah

[bryanm6118]

wow, you suck

[quivl]

Shut the fuck up. If there is any baiting I am doing in my post, it's for ignorant comments like this, which simply says something sucks, or someone sucks, without explanation.

[mastertoine]

this game is unreal...the guy thats playing it just suck and dont deke at all...skill stick is the best thing that ever happened to hockey games. either youre a 2k fan fagget or simply not an hockey fan, so get out of this comments zone.

[quivl]

I am not a 2K fan, a faggot, or a non-hockey fan by any means. The game seems very unnatural.

[mastertoine]

Did you played the demo on the 360? looks like you didnt.

[quivl]

No.  Did you play the demo for PS2? I know, there isn't one. How can you judge a game you've never played?

[mastertoine]

Im playiong the 360 demo right now...if you didnt know there is one.!!!

[quivl]

I know there is one, and I don't give a shit really.

[mastertoine]

so u cant say that this game isnt that good

[quivl]

...Why not? Because the game has a demo? That's the deciding factor, it's automatically good now?

[mastertoine]

because I played it and its sick, thrust me.

[quivl]

alright. I'm not saying it isn't good. It must be good to some people, and it's popular. I think it's an acquired taste. I really don't find it natural.

[hockeypunk136]

if thiws is 360, and u think it looks bad, what makes u think it will look better for the ps2?

[quivl]

This looks absolutely atrocious. Hitting looks like it's hard. The slapshot looks disgusting, and the passes are way too slow. I really hope it isn't like this on PS2.

[35delight]

you're an idiot

[quivl]

1) I am really hoping they don't mess with the PS2 version too much, because it was awesome last year, for me at least.

2) Not an idiot.  It isn't like I just posted "This sucks" without an explanation. I explained what was bad about it, and you still can't accept that.

[RidgePlayer16]

if u think the ps2 version is better, u need help. seriously.

[quivl]

LOL. If you are talking about NHL 07, just LOL. The 360 got the skill stick. Once everybody realized this was gimmicky, and that the game was full of bugs, I decided to try NHL 07 for PS2 again, and I loved it.

[quivl]

Oh. I need help if I think PS2 is better, well, I can tell you this much; you need help with your fuckin' grammar.

[RidgePlayer16]

what makes u think hitting is easy. their trying to make is realistic not a WWE fight

[quivl]

I never said hitting was easy? Now that I look closely, it's the cpu that's right beside the puck carrier, and not even trying a hit or poke check or anything. Dumb AI? Maybe.

[RidgePlayer16]

u said the hitting looks hard, so u must think it should be easy to hit, but hitting is hard in real life and their making it like real life. the slapshot is better than on ps2, and i would say the passes are way faster than they really are in real life.

[quivl]

Well, I realized my mistake, might've just been that one play, and might've just been dumb AI. Worse on PS2?! How the fuck would you know?

[RidgePlayer16]

how would i know? i have it.

[quivl]

I would addume you are talking about NHL 07 for PS2, not 08. Until you can give me some reasoning as to why the slapshot sucks on 07 for PS2, your statement means nothing to me.

[RidgePlayer16]

the stick doesnt flex, they look like retards, if u watch an nhler slapshot and watch a 07 on ps2, and then 360, the 360 version is almost identical to and nhler. i cant explain how bad the 07 shot looks, but its no where near the 360 one.

[quivl]

Fair enough.  But it's a small detail. Slap shots are identical. Too bad you can't set up plays, like real hockey.

[quivl]

07 for PS2? Give me a reason why it is worse that 360. Until you are able to do that, your statement means nothing to me,

[NCole012]

sick vid
