StickSkills.com writes, "NHL 10 nailed it when it comes to controls. When people clamored for less tape-to-tape passes and more realistic play along the boards, EA listened, without taking away the ability to play the way the game has been played since 08. Hardcore controls are optional, but not required. These controls take away the super accurate laser passes and huge hip checks. The introduction of the new Precision Passing system is one of the main differences in hardcore mode. Having to hold the right trigger for the right amount of time and putting the stick in the exact right position is a challenge, but it does add a ton to realism. With checking assistance gone and deking ability and puck control toned down, NHL 10 has finally found a way to give a noticeable difference in player types. Grinders will hit hard, but they won't be able to dance around and shoot perfectly. Conversely, snipers won't be able to crush people into the boards, but they will be able to hit the corners of the net more easily. When player types were first added to the NHL series, this was the ultimate goal. NHL 10 has finally been able to realize that goal and pulls it off well."

"Downloadable Content is supposed to enhance a game after it's conclusion, expand the multiplayer or add new features to promote extended play. The problem is for every masterpiece of DLC like The Lost and Damned, a Grand Theft Auto IV expansion, there are just as many duds or cash ins. You may have your own list but here at GamePlayToday is our list for the worst DLC this."
That beautiful Katamari DLC was the worst. It was, as far as I think, worse than even the way EA bends people over.
But it all comes down to whether people are dumb enough to pay.
Why is it that anytime someone doesn't like a certain release of DLC, people are "dumb" for buying it? Is it at all possible that the DLC sells because there are actually people out there who want it?
Sometimes it's as simple as unlocking stuff in the game. What's the difference from people buying GameShark or CDX back in the day to unlock stuff?
Game Judgment's Patrick O'Rourke has been playing EA's NHL franchise for years, here are his impressions NHL 2011.
The be a pro mode is actually kind of cool, building your own play from the ground up has this WoW like character development addiction to it. I know a lot of guys that play it that have no interest in Hockey specifically just because it's a great time to play with a few friends.
Awesome review man, keep em coming
that EA said wasn't coming to PC and PS2?
Wish I could afford this.
