NHL 09 Final Hands-On
by Ray Almeda | 09/03/08 | 11:40 AM PST
It's no secret that EA Sports hasn't pushed their hockey titles with the same level of vigor that they have the rest of their core sports brands in a long time. It's not exactly a mystery why that is, either. While the Canadian populace at large and a sprinkling of similarly intelligent folks around the globe may have embraced the simple truth that hockey is the single greatest sport in the history of mankind, the vast majority of Earth's population is still playing catch up. They'll 'get it' eventually, but in the mean time the market's lack of enthusiasm has forced EA to devote most of their budget toward Madden and NBA Live for the American audience, FIFA for the European audience, and Tiger Woods PGA Golf for the ever-broadening 'we love to be bored out of our skulls' demographic. The pecking order received a bit of a shake-up last year when EA Sports Vancouver put together NHL 08, the most innovative, well-executed and critically acclaimed sports game in years. Now the team up in Vancouver is looking to improve over last season's all-star effort and leave the rest of the games in EA's stable to play catch up alongside their fans.
