Hmm...might have to get this, except I bought NHL '12 and have barely touched it in two years.

Well, I'm certainly buying this one, now. It'll be fun to play in Anniversary Mode with my brother across XBox Live. I can't wait to skate into the goalie while he holds the puck and getting a cheap goal or two.

When you watch the video it makes it seem like it's just the same game with rules changes. 90% of it looks like it's just the same game...and then I can't tell if the other 10% is just window dressing. There are like 2 shots of a classic look...and one of them is just the actual NHL 94 game.

I'd get this, but I remember I have no clue what's currently going on in the NHL and would end up getting pissed after not scoring in like, three games.

I've been playing the hell out of NHL 12 since getting it a few weeks ago and it's a lot of fun especially the Be a Pro mode. This one looks like it might be worth getting too maintaining my pattern of skipping every other game in the series.

I picked up NHL 13 a month ago for $30 and barely play it; play MLB The Show and get in and out of games in ~15 seconds and I can't bring myself to go back to anything EA with its 60+ second loading times.

After skipping last year's game, I was planning on picking this up anyway, so this will be a fun bonus.

IIRC, NHL 09 had a NHL 94 mode for controls. After turning off penalties, it was a ball (puck) to play.

This game is FAAAAAANtastic. Especially after finding sliders that make it challenging but fair. I really like the puck physics and the player momentum.

I like how the goalies can be challenging,but it isn't impossible to score at the highest difficulty. Hell, I am even 14-3-2 in online play. I'm typically a .500 player
