EA SPORTS NHL 20 Years on the Ice: Evolution of the Game

[MGSDude01]

NHL 98 on the Playstation got me hooked on these games. Best sports game franchise hands down. Go Wings!

[xBKxGOBEARS]

you guys should make a field and box lax game thats in 3d like nhl

[SuperStanley86]

nhl 2005 on pc great game love it still

[TboneNYC10]

NHL 2001 PC is great and stands up till today IMO.

[99arnoldo]

nhl hitz 2002 was my favorite NHL game of all time

[Gubby1244]

Nhl 06, 11, 12 r the best

[MrDeadlyBunnY]

@Gubby1244 Yup i agree :)

[TheHiivasonni]

NHL PC is fine as long as you have a game pad.

[Unkknown]

NHL 2002, 2004 are still nice to play!

[gtafanboy32]

NHL 2004 and 06 are my two NHL games that i loved

[jboell7]

nhl 2001 awsome big hits

[TheBoxBreaker]

NHL 2002 is an awesome game. Very entertaining.

[TKEMP360]

NHL series is sooooo much better than NFL or NBA. No fucking Brainer

[manchezzzzy]

nhl 99 and 2000,2002 my favorites <33333

[DevanThomas91]

NHL 99 was the best!

[yas19931102]

not new every year... did he say new every year... yeah bullshit!

[NoGripRacingGTR2]

@yas19931102 Small changes but they are important.

[SJShockey88]

Ryane clowe it's not right handed

[LilBirdieHH]

want to see behind the scenes making the games ..

how many times something has been crushed? : D

[VideoswillVary]

pff,like the flames could score

[5nowwy]

@VideoswillVary LMAOO

[sirbargearse]

I've got EVERY copy of this series (from the Sega Mega Drive) except the current one. I don't know. Maybe I'm getting old or it's getting old! LOL

[Bah56]

NHL '02, best commentators ever.

[CFLNHLFIFAFAN]

This is awesome showing past years, but wow, love the game, it's getting better every year, I remember playing on n64 and gamecube but now on I play on ps3 and the graphics are awesome can't wait for NHL12! Ea sports Team for NHL did great and are great!

[nitsuj182]

1:40 is bull shit the arenas never look real ea is just lazy about them

[ilovecatsz]

And make it so when you start a game there a different starting and same thing with the commentary I hate hearing the same thing over and over again

[ilovecatsz]

You guys are doing a great job I have been playing NHL games sense I was 4 they are great games that make you love hockey that much more. I can't wait for NHL 12 try to put more stuff for be a gm. it gets boring and fix up the goalies alitttle but othere then that NHL 11 is a great game

[davioitaliano]

Take out the one personne fighting make it more real change the commentator have more stuff while theres and offside or somethin like show stats of player if (exemple) he scored 8 goals in the past 12 games an time outs we should get 2 see players go to the bench ect.. better more options things 2 do in gm mode be a pro legend card was inpossible online in nhl 11 inless you accualy played with ppl u know upgrade grapphics crowds and why when im away and score crowd doesint even boooooh! lol?

[imfromfinland1]

Fights are very repetive. Make it so that it isnt like that I just keep hitting him and he blocks... Please watch a real fight from Youtube.

[codyBRUZ]

While doing their crossovers and carrying the puck! Just about every player has done that time to time, I hate losing edge.. The goalie is definitely getting there too. Still seems a little stiff, but getting more soft and fluent. Anyways I've had my input, I hope someone sees it. Can't wait for NHL 12!! Oh and make the announcers and crowd actually get pumped and not on default!! Lol take it easy!

[codyBRUZ]

I've never commented so much, I'm not ragging too much, these are just things i would like to see and might help promote the game, not that you guys haven't done your job. I absolutely love NHL 11!! The new dekes and shots are insane! Speaking of, maybe a shot where you can go on one knee? Also the hits are sooo much better! Innovative stick dropping and breaking is just awesome. And even players falling over

[codyBRUZ]

But I must say, it is boring! A few hits and it is over. 2k series fight is cool from what I've seen buy EA owns them ;) perhaps a slow circling camera focusing on the fighters, but if you get knocked down it'd be awesome to regain balance and keep at the fight, perhaps a stamina bar for longer fights? Or even in the cutscene if the ref jumps on them to break it up? Little things like that

[codyBRUZ]

If the players were more interactive before and after puck drops and during cut scenes that'd go down well. Maybe add a linesman in the game? Just one ref is odd, it can't hurt. Lastly, fighting! At first, I thought first person was great, and as a hockey player myself I've had a few scraps too, which is why I found it appealing.

[codyBRUZ]

Perhaps a "opponent shot frequency" option? Also in GM mode the ability to communicate with players? Back in NHL 07 it'd say if they were happy with their ice time or not, but more improved ;) also the ability to renovate the rink (more seats, jumbo screens etc) and attendance (raise or lower ticket/food prices)

[codyBRUZ]

Super skills competition. And I saw a winter classic comment, that's innovative. And please make the AI smarter in trades, I have a lot of fail screen shots of one sided deals that don't go through lol I think I have 233 attempted trades and 11 successful. Also I like even matchups, but on average I get about 22 shots on goal and my opponent gets about 10 shots. That is a big issue that's been continuous over the past few releases

[codyBRUZ]

The playoffs just don't feel like the playoffs. Perhaps little emblems of the Stanley cup on the jerseys? Also have the year of the playoffs on the ice? Please take a look at Madden 10, they have a thing called extra point, perhaps something similar? Maybe weekly highlights and best plays of the week? Also three stars every week? Also whe. It comes to the all-star game it just feels like a pointless game. It'd be nice if you could incorporate the super skills co

[codyBRUZ]

Also have new commentators, but also keep the current ones. Have the current ones for home games and new commentators for away games. Also after a season it'd be nice for the commentators to acknowledge a achievement. I play GM mode with the ducks, obviously last year they failed to make the playoffs, but in GM mode I won the cup and got to my second season and the commentators said they don't want a repeat of last year? Lol

[codyBRUZ]

In GM mode you should be able to create a jersey for a current NHL team. After a season or two it feels repetitive. Have multiple intros to begin a game, especially for the playoffs! It gets so boring seeing the same intro and ending to every series

[kukkomies1]

im playing nhl99 and 2000 on my old ps1 right now

[punisherdigimen]

Thumbs up That we NEED NHL 11 ON PC!!!!!!(EA pls return it to us).

[superang11]

NHL11 is the best video game ever created!

[EvilMonkey6794]

NHL 2004 was great!

[plaidchuck]

fuck presentation. fuck the anything else.  fix the damn AI, physics, goalies, etc..

[billdustin2000]

@plaidchuck Don't Forget you

[VFChockey]

since i think you work with ea sports NHl games can u try to get the winter classic in and buil ur own rink. Tht would be a huge hit

[bpddesigns]

Thumbs up if you want to see the Winter Classic in NHL 11.

[mrlifesensi1]

@bpddesigns it is

[tncpower]

@mrlifesensi1 no it's on nhl 12

[mrlifesensi1]

@tncpower yeah i was meaning to say NHL 12

[XxGhostRidaaHxX]

@bpddesigns WELL YOU GOT IT !! IN NHL12.

[bpddesigns]

@XxGhostRidaaHxX

Haha I had no idea what I had commented when I saw an email saying someone commented on my comment. Now I remember. =P And HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL YAAAAA

[Khabibulin3935]

@bpddesigns its in there

[TheAnttiJ]

Great games!

NHL 2005 and 07 are the best!

[romo972575]

EA needs to change their player models, im tired of seein players who have jerseys that look like short dresses, 2k hockey sucks, but at least there going in the right direction, EA isnt worth 60$, or any other game.

[whitburg124]

last patch killed nhl 11

[TheHotdoodoo]

i like hockey. i had nhl94 so fun.

[nklslinde21]

We need nhl back on pc!

[MegaDman321]

@nklslinde21 heck yeah!

[RaamAnkka]

@nklslinde21 Wait they dont have nhl on pc?

[behems007]

@nklslinde21 Right... Thay can't make a better game than nhl 09 because PC controller is BUTTONS - NO ANALOG! Aiming would be 7 point aiming like in nhl 09 and shooting would be buttons. They actually can make better engine and physics but thats all. Console hockey would be better anyway.

[InSovietRussiaaa]

@nklslinde21

NHL on pc is so gay,

NHL is for ps3 and shooting games for PC

[RyanRuffy]

Make Gretzky's head bleed for superfan 99 over here!

[Nukes213]

@RyanRuffy It's no so much me as it's Roenick. He's good.

[xIMxDEF3NSE]

yes. pc games are the best. i got nhl 2000 in a cerial box when i was around 6 and it was the best. I would play practice mode just to try to knock the helmets off the players. And then take a picture of the guys with out them cause they had boxed heads and looked funny. then in the games i would score everytime with a rap around. good times

[N00B4LIFE92]

I thought it said NHL20!!!!

[hampe7]

@N00B4LIFE92 Me too! xD

[MrLeaflover33]

ill rather get nhl 92 than elite

[mutantewolverine]

eu ñ entendo muito de ingles , + pelo q e entendi o video quiz mostrar de como esse jogo evoluio nos video games

[JaysonHoang14]

OMG! David Littman in NHL 11!

[AchievementsRock]
