Heh, they called him Spee-zah last year too. Shit ABC called him that all year.

I'll get it for PS2 again this year, but last year online wasn't that great for me.

Had to be gamespot of all places :(
Anyways, great videos though the game looks a bit too fast paced, guess they messed around with the settings.

Why on earth would someone from Vancouver want to play as the Wild? Wouldn't rabid Canuck fans eat you alive?
I rented NHL2K4 for the XBox, got bishop online, and we played a game. He chose the Canucks first, and since it was the first time I was playing anyone online (I just rented the game that very night and was still getting used to the difference between 2K2 on DC and 2K4 on XBox), I jokingly chose the Minnesota Wild, so that when I lost, it would be a good loss.

The final shots in the game between bishop and myself were

Minnesota - 23
Vancouver - 88

The final score was

Minnesota - 1
Vancouver - 0

(it was either that or 2-1)

It was glorious. Dwayne Roloson was making brilliant save after brilliant save, and it was driving bish nuts. I didn't buy the game because of the massive amount of lag I got, so bish never got his rematch. I never let him hear the end of it whenever an ESPN NHL game is brought up.

I played 2k4 at like speed level 1, which is why I hate playing online. It's like they all did some blow in the locker room and are in a giant race to see who can get the most one-timers.

What they really need to do is have some preset sliders. Instead of just having everything at five they should have a few settings like Realistic, Arcade, Fast Paced, Hard Hitting, and whatever.

Damn guys, I didn't know you still played 2K4. I traded it in a while ago.

My new live handle is Militant Black. Add me to your friends list and we'll have some fun when NHL 2K5 comes out. Hey, my Pens can't get any worse.
