NHL 08 online play details and full game
I used Play Now to get in my first online game with NHL 08 and captured it broken down into three videos by period. Overall the game played very smooth, very close if not identical to offline. I'll need to get some more games in (including the co-op) to make any determination as to ultimately how good the performance is but that is certainly encouraging. Other EA titles over the past few months did not start off this well. As far as I can tell there is no way to change the difficulty ...

Full game of NHL 08 played on All-Star difficulty
The previous two games were played on Pro, so I pushed this one up to All-Star. As a novice it was considerably tougher. I got out-shot by a wide margin and couldn't win a single faceoff. Overall the AI was much more aggressive as you'll see. I'll leave the analyzing of the video to everyone out there. This game features the Colorado Avalanche @ the St. Louis Blues and again is broken down by period into three videos. (more…)...
