GameShark: NHL 09 Review

GameShark writes: "NHL 09 is not a simulation of professional hockey. It's a game. A fun game, no doubt, but it's more like an entertaining movie based on a good book which was based on actual events. The event is usually more interesting but the movie is good enough to get the job done. In fairness, the game does more than just get the job done – it's addictive, but you need to know beforehand that it still has many of the same annoyances left over from NHL 08."

What's Hot:
+Superb visuals
+Addictive gameplay
+Spot on play by play
+Be a Pro and online modes are fantastic

What's Not:
-Lack of custom options
-Passing is way too accurate
-Penalties too infrequent

Brings back memories of uni days :) Did once punch a wall I got so frustrated. Was either that or destroy a controller. Fortunately I didn't break anything, but unfortunately it was a solid brick wall and my knuckles hurt like s*** afterwards!

Everyone has felt a little bit furious when they were hit by a blue shell in Mario Kart.

Maple223559d ago

Never injured myself but I do remember crying once because the video game character wouldnt do what I wanted it too... Arrrgghhh the frustration!

Skellytorx3559d ago

I actually threw a controller at my brother once for constantly button bashing and not giving me a chance to fight back during a Tekken match. God I was such a bad loser.

MrsNesbitt3559d ago

Mario Kart is a big culprit. Never thrown anything in anger, but caused massive arguments between my best friend and I. I also hurt myself spinning around on a computer chair in victory and falling backwards.

Natalya in Goldeneye I never wanted to hurt someone so much.

And for pure, unbridled fury... CALL OF DUTY being verbally abused by 11 year olds is not my idea of gaming bliss.

Double_O_Revan3559d ago

Can't remember how many times I did things like set up remote mines, used rocket launcher, grenade launcher, etc in elaborate ways to kill Natalya. Oh the frustration of that woman!! Lol

Pozzle3559d ago

Protecting Natalya in the control room is one of my first memories of gamer rage. I don't know how many times I attempted that level before I finally beat it >_>

I threw my N64 controller and almost broke the analogue stick. It never quite worked the same since! lol

MrsNesbitt3559d ago

Simply the worst AI ever!

Infinite Themes: Slappin' pucks and pumpin' fists| Twinfinite

am not a fan of sports. Growing up as a “hardcore” gamer, sports never really appealed to me, especially watching them. While I understand the rules and regulations of a large majority of sports, they just don’t have the same draw to me as they do to others. Why would I freak out about the achievements of other people? So when it comes to playing a game based on activities that I don’t really watch? No thank you. Why write an article about a sports game that is five years old? Because, this small game has lead to me to becoming a screaming fanatic, if only for a short while.
