NHL 12 (Sony Playstation 3, 2011)

NHL 12 is on of the best sports video games out there. Unlike other games it does a really good job of trying not to repackage the same game every year with small tweaks. Yes, it could be argued that there are small changes from 11 to 12 and there is validity to it, but the history of the franchise has been known to make major leaps from year to year. For whatever reason, EA seems to put the most effort into improving this series than others, for example NCAA and Madden.

The game itself is a ton of fun whether you're a hockey fan or not. It's great to have constant action in playing this game unlike having breaks in other games. I bought this game because I enjoy playing it online vs other players and most of all playing against my friends in different states. It truly is a very addicting video game. I would definitely make this purchase again and I plan on buying all EA NHL games to come.

This is a lot like 2011 with a few more extras. Now you can play the Winter Classic, but it's not the current Winter Classic it's Pittsburgh Penguins and Washington Capitols at Heinz Field. It does allow you to play as other teams in that mode.

If youre new to the NHL series from EA Sports you might find this game a little overwhelming. A lot of game modes and controls to confuse you with.

Great hockey action as usual from EA. Fun,fast paced game with very good graphics. A lot of fun to play!!!

I have so far played a couple hours and I can tell you right away the controls and overall play is much better then NHL11.

Much more dynamic goalie animations and play. Seems much more realistic.

I am having a ton of fun, I think they did some really great tweaks.

I have not tried all the modes but I really like the addition of the Winter Classic. I can't wait to check out some of the other new modes.

great quality great price, love hockey games anybody wants to play 1v1 let me know we can arrange it
