Watch an entire game of NHL 08

As stated previously, one of the biggest benefits to having the Community Event for NBA Live 08 back in late June was how the game was still at a point in development where feedback and suggestions could be evaluated and potentially implemented. You can read my full impressions from then here. This being a demo and with only the 2 minute quarters it is difficult to get into a flow and fully evaluate the game.
