NHL 08 trailer, EA has added the ability to move the puck into open space while deking with the skill stick, looks awesome. Check out the interview as well.

I love NHL 07, it was the best version of the series since the classic 94, I cannot wait for 08. It also features every AHL team.

The problem with the faces of the players - as good as they are - is that their expressions never change as they go up and down the ice. I know it would be hard to fix, but when the player has the exact same neutral look on his face regardless of the action, it looks kind of lame.

NHL07 was the best NHL game ever IMO, better than 94 on PC or genesis. 08 looks even better. I can't wait to buy it.

I agree, NHL 94 still holds a place in my youth though. NHL 94 tournaments with friends ruled.

I played the shit out of it on PC, it was the only game I went through the regular season and playoffs on, and I'm in the conference finals right now in 07, I will win the cup in it before 08 comes out.

Any word if NHL 08 is going to be released for PSP?

I would imagine so

Skill stick on 07 just adds a totally new dimension to hockey games. So much more control over the players, really fun once you get used to it.

NHL 08 will feature 29 AHL teams. Awesome fucking feature.

Is that a clever joke, or do they actually have an AHL team?

Is that counting the team Lowe is putting on the ice this season? Zing

the actually have their own AHL team this year, so some of our young guys will actually get to play.

that's hurtful sir.

I have a feeling how last season went after Smytty left will just be a hint of what's to come this year.

That's the first trailer I've seen for '08, it looks fucking awesome. Why so much Eric Staal though?

Nhl 2k series >

[burningsun]

I also have enjoyed the 2K series a lot more but last year and probably this year, EA is back in the game

[Beeman99]

I've never liked the 2k series, too arcady for me, and the controls blow compared to Ea's

The newest NHL'08 videos show off some of the new updated Reebok hockey jerseys. This one shows off the new Carolina, Boston, Columbus and Washington jerseys.
