looks like trade in value on NHL 16 is $12-14 right now except for at Amazon where it's $3.11 hah. Still on the hunt for a beta code if anyone's got an extra. :tipshat:

I liked the beer league arena and new goal songs from watching the Ted's stream last night.

There's a goal horn when you score but honestly I was wishing it was just woo!'s interspersed with the other team muttering "fffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck." and blaming the goalie.

Hey is there an EASHL club up for goons for this? The beta has been extended and I would like to get annoyed at EA play with PS4 folk.

This new patch/tuner has seriously hosed passing and player changing logic.

Also I got a game misconduct and booted from the game on an interference call where the computer ran into me :wtf::wtf::wtf:

EA will never be able to program real interference into their games. You can interfere all you wan't but sometimes when you just collide you get penalty.

Yeah that wasn't meant to be related to my patch-bitching. More of an amusing anecdote that I got a Game Misconduct & ejected for it. Literally just skatin' along mindin' my own bidness, officer! I'm innocent!!

Yeah I was super stoked to see that Old Time Hockey game back when it was first making the preview rounds but after seeing a number of reviews and gameplay videos I'm super glad I didn't buy it. Every single one of them said the controls were super super lovely/"laggy"/delayed/whatever and that the developers posting on reddit said "yeah we did that on purpose caaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuse...:shrug:"

So now I'm hoping this isn't poo poo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ybjx9RQjek but let's be honest it'll probably be poo poo.
also ^^^ this game has one-timers so hey it's got that going for it.

I have definitely gotten $10 of enjoyment out of both BaP and Franchise mode. I'm willing to go as high as $11.99 worth of enjoyment.

WE DID SOMETHING NEW FOR THIS SEASON GUYS! (Programmer shits out two lines of code in 15 minutes for a score modifier)

I've also already seen a puck disappear under the mid-boards with the commentator saying "oh that went over the glass". Slow mo replay confirms the puck look like it got jammed under the boards by a stick and just disappeared. :iiam:
