1. Just so I know
2. So I know who to pay to get me a copy also and ship it to me.
Thanks!
My favorite new feature amongst all of them
Broken Sticks, as broken sticks came off as being a bit of a novelty, it certainly is now part of today's NHL game. As the gamespot exclusive article explains, it won't happen every game and frequency will be adjustable via tuner/slider. There are 3 spots a stick can break, Blade, lower shaft and upper shaft. Sticks can be broken from slashes, the act of shooting and (thanks to my suggestion) blocking a shot with your stick. You can also lose your stick after a monster hit, and will have to make a choice between going to pick it up or going to the bench for a new one. Your teammate can also offer his stick to you and you can take it (beware as it will keep the handedness and you could end up playing with an off handed stick - curve faces your backhand).

I havent bought a Madden or a NHL game since about 06 or so. But the 5 on 5 shit does sound nice.

Well, just think, you can acquire the whole NHL like you think Toronto is.

One of the reasons I won't buy NBA games is that - in the past - the game has a learning curve that looks like a backwards 'L' ... once you get good, you can never, ever lose again. Is that the case with the 2k series?

I'll get it purely to play 5v5 online. We might be able to get an NDL team going. I know Hart played online last year.
Once FIFA comes out, I'll probably stop playing it and purely play the FIFA online team play (11 v 11 > 5 v 5)

NBA Live which is now NBA Elite has had 5v5 for a few years now.I assume 2K has had it too.

The only reason I will be getting it. The 5 on 5 online play is sweet. Actually can do 6 on 6 but i know it was hit or miss with the connection. Fun game to play in the OTP....
