I can do it, not only for NHL 11 but it doesn't bother me much to do it for other games as well. I sell a lot of stuff on Ebay so I end up in the post office quite often.

wtf
cause the game isn't worth a shit and NBA2k is the greatest sports series out there.

nba2k is so ridiculously good and realistic
i really liked ncaa 2k8, still play it during the season, but i did really like it when some kid in my dorm had it freshman year.

Rented it but never bought it cuz i feel like basketball games are too easy

I don't care much about hockey, but I've bought 09 and 10. I haven't been disappointed with either. The EASHL (6 on 6) play is awesome. It's a lot better if you are playing with guys you know. When I ran my own sports gaming website, we had our own team and it was a lot of fun.

This game is FUCKING TERRIFIC!!!

I've become addicted to the Ultimate Team, it's like an online franchise mode.

Btw, the reason NBA Live is now "NBA Elite"....is because it's now being made by EA CANADA--the people who bring you FIFA and NHL.

NHL and FIFA >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> NCAA Football, Madden, any other sports game out there--every year. They wins awards EVERY YEAR. So EA's NBA game might finally be worth a damn!

Trendon, download the demo; by inviting someone to play it you get a free pack; by simply PLAYING it you get a free pack; and then if you win the Ultimate Team tourney (you have to beat Canada in the final), you get ANOTHER pack!

Then, when you sign up, you get a pack from that....so make sure to do the demo, you go from 1 to 4.

I've spent about $20 on packs and have gotten some stars; got Ryan Miller in my last pack. The key is to get young players with lots of training slots and long careers; then apply a big contract card to them RIGHT AWAY, before doing any training. You'll see when you play it what I'm talking about, but when they get past 15 games on their contract, you can't resign them for longer until later, and then their salary goes up; and your team has a 25K salary cap for most tournaments and all EAUHL games. I've put together a terrific team and I'm fucking loving it, and the chemestry--unlike on FIFA--is actually of VITAL importance; my line of Minnesota players Latendresse/Bouchard/Kobasew has dominated lines with top studs on different teams playing together.

Oh yeah--in the demo, if you don't like your team, just back out and start over--there's no limit and no penalty. I saw Miller almost every time, and Chara; also saw a lot of Malkin, Zetterberg, and Recchi.

I played the demo and just played a game. What I love is how exciting it is when you score ... again! the fans all jump up and start doing their own little celebration. The horn. You are right, EA Canada needs to win some awards. Sure, there are a lot of great game companies out there but none that separate themselves in a genre quite like them and NONE that separate themselves from their own company quite like them!

I didn't say they NEED to--I said they DO. Every year.

Two years ago NHL won "Game of the Year".

Oh, when you score, hit x/triangle/0/square/r2/l2 . Each one does a different celebration.
