Jacob St-Amour from Link-Cable Writes: "Just a few days ago, hockey fans were saddened to see the ageless wonder Jaromir Jagr depart from the NHL. Injuries and a lack of play caused the Czech legend and the Calgary Flames to terminate his contract and soon after to return home to play for the Kladno Knights overseas. As we bid farewell to this hockey great and future Hall of Famer, we also look back at the game which featured a list of all-stars from an era that is now history with NHL ‘94."
EA Sports NHL 18 has hit retail, so we decided to celebrate the release with a list of the ten best hockey games ever made.
I'm so out of the loop, but damn I loved me my couch pvp on NHLPA back in the day!
SNES at my house, Sega at my friend's. All bases covered
Blades of Steel was so funny to play with friends, I loved that game. Damn good hockey game, but having a punch up with someone was the real reason to play it.
There are a few games that prominently feature Canada, so let's take a look at the titles that do the Great White North proud.
First thing to come to mind is bioware in terms of video games
Don't starve are great developers too, their next game is shaping up to be very fun too
enjoy your Canada Day :) (likes Canadia doesn't understand what's up with people in my home country (United States) downplaying them all the time)
I think it's because for some it's dangerous to have a successful, more liberal society sitting right next door. It goes against their narrative that such a country could exist so they need to point out and exaggerate any flaws that they can find.
The fact is every country is screwed up in their own way. Rather than picking on the flaws, we should be taking note of the successes and what we might learn from them to improve our own situations.
"Just in time for the NHL All-Star game, I revisit late 80's and early-to-mid 90's hockey video games, starting with Blades of Steel and working up through several other titles, mostly in the EA Sports NHL family." -GR
I tried NHL 95 and 97 SNES versions recently and they were so, so hard to control because I've spent the last 15 years doing the new thing almost every year. I was looking just plain stupid out there.
Best classic hockey games:
NES: Blades of Steel, Ice Hockey
Genesis: NHLPA 93', Mutant League Hockey
SNES: NHL 94'
