This is exactly what I was listening to while we were playing.

Mastodon's drummer has the market cornered on gayest look:musical talent ratio. <3 snare rolls.



One of these is not like the other.

I've decided that more than anything, I hate people in NHL 09 who try the SAME FUCKING MOVE every time. I'm playing this one kid right now and all he does is try and come out from behind the net and stuff it. The game is not even fun. And what makes me even madder, is that he's beating me 2-1 on two of those bullshit goals.

Why even play if you're just going to exploit a glitch in the game?

Exactly. When I house you 7-0 I do a variety of moves.

You and your mom have a lot in common.

[The Four Peters]

The amount of "your mom" jokes have increased exponentially in this game thread.

And exploiting the games "glitch move" is a staple of the NHL series. The cross crease goal, the far post shot from the top of the circle, and the wrap around goal were all staples of the mid-90's games. And if you didn't lose them, well, you had morals, but you also ended up losing with those morals.

Quit your bitching.

And who could forget the the ultimate left-right deke in NHLPA 93. Absolutely money.

Someone needs to re-acquaint himself with the Krjeci commandments.

7th Krejci Commandment: Thou shall only use the NHL glitch when in dire circumstances, or against one of douchley nature. It shall not the be the entirety of ones offense. Krejci is multi demensional, you shall be too.

I think it was NHL 94 where the wide wrap around got the goalie stuck to the near post, so you could tuck it in neatly on the far post once around the back of the net.

Wrong. If you want to go that route, Krejci wins by any means. The glitch move wins. It's all about efficiency.

I cant remember which one NHL 94 was, although I think it was the cross-crease hold the puck move. Regardless, this was the best hockey video game ever created, closely followed by Ice Hockey for Ninentdo. There is no debate to this statement, and it was actually discussed in a thread in video game sub-forum. I will not budge on this fact.

I also think NHL 94 has the unstoppable one timer between the face off dots. Goalies could only manage a weak wave as it tickled the twine behind them.

For The Record (not shamelessly plugging my blog like other people), I only texted a PSK. Nothing was incomprehensible and I have no regrets. You guys can die in a fire.

Wolverines beat #1 Notre Dame last night, so suck it bitches. SUCK IT! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Money doesn't even do it justice, I had that move down pat, could score almost every time with it. NHL 93 is still my favorite game of all time.

WHAT? The year they took the blood out of the game so you could no longer knock someone's ass out and then see them weep in pain while blood flows onto the ice? Are you sure? NHL 93 >>>>> NHL 94, I can not be convinced otherwise.

I agree I loved the fact that while you were celebrating a win after the game you could skate around with your players and hit them with your stick over their heads with that funny grunting noise that they would make afterwards.

[Myt1]

'93 didn't have one-timers. Anyone who prefers '93 to '94 is a cockatoo molesting communist. '94 is widely recognized as one of the greatest sports games ever made.

And anyone who doesn't use one skinny and three fats in Ice Hockey should have an NES Advantage shoved up their ass.

One of my college roommates (Rangers fan)is coming down from Vermont for the game. Looking forward to some Saturday afternoon hockey.

Any hockey game that does not include use of a one-timer cannot lay claim to the title. NHLPA 93 was groundbreaking, then NHL '94 was perfection. Hell, NHLPA 93 didn't even have the team names.

Sure, drawing blood is cool, but as far as actual hockey games, NHL 94 rules all. I can't wait for PSK to reign down on the issue.

[mikeford]

Yo, I have to disagree with TFP

NHL 94 blows in comparison to NHL 96.

From the wiki:

Fighting is reintroduced in NHL 96, as are major and double minor penalties.

.

NHL 94 doesn't have fighting, injuries, majors or double minors. Huge flaw IMO. And I dont know when the cross crease cheap goal started but it definitely exists in 96 and works every time. I used to to score a hattrick with Bob Probert against my friend. He will never live down that even if I used the glitch goal to get it.. its still a Bob Probert hattrick.

It was the first game to feature fighting and majors, and yet Bob Probert logged enough ice time to score three goals?

Mastodon?

Not at all. I'm a metal head, but cannot stand Mastodon. I prefer "real" metal.

[TheShynessClinic]

Saw this over on the HF boards:

The Boston Globe reports that, if the Bruins were going to go after Panthers D Jay Bouwmeester, it would likely cost one of the team's young power forwards, Milan Lucic or Blake Wheeler.

Thanks, but no thanks.

[Arroyo Con Frijoles]

And who could forget the the ultimate left-right deke in NHLPA 93. Absolutely money.

I want to point out that this was one of my first Sega games, and I still love it so much to this day. The theme song, the fact that Don Sweeney is one of the best d-men in the game despite not having a great rating, the fact that the teams are identified only by the location and not by the team name (Hartford versus Long Island? Legendary battle). Great game.

If I recall correctly, that game would only let you fight, I think twice (whole team, not just 1 guy) before you could not do anything to start another brawl.

I keep forgetting you're such a young'n. I thought I remembered you going off in BU's thread in the video game forum a couple months ago. Apparently I was wrong, certainly won't be the last time

[PedroSpecialK]

In all honesty, yeah I liked NHL 94 more than all the other old ones. NHLPA was alright, but there was just an awesome quality to 94 that put it miles ahead of the NHLPA or NHL Breakaway franchises.

I was a huge fan of NHL 97 as well. 03 was pretty good, an 09 seems to be pretty awesome so far too.

The one I loved that no one's mentioned was that Wayne Gretzky game on the N64, where they also had the Long Island distinction. Man that game was awesome.

Shenanigans on this one (EDIT: DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS JUST NAMES, THEY STILL HAD THE ROSTERS THOUGH). I used to rock the Blackhawks due to Jeremy Roenick and him being the most complete video game athlete since Bo Jackson. I can't recall how many Gordie Howe hattricks he had as he was a multi-dimensional player that could score and effectively hit, unlike Brett Hull, Gretzky, and others.

And I too was a yung'n during those days (though I didn't watch Power Rangers...brother used to taunt me mercilessly if I did) and would still rock that game. Best part bar none was when you won the Stanley and skated around the ice with what looked like a giant stereo. Caused some fun street hockey moments.

TSC, Hitz is da bomb. One of my favorite Playstation games ever. And I think the Bruins were adequate instead of miserable.

Edit: Agreeing with PSK on Wayne Gretzky's 3D hockey. Basically a Hitz predecesor and IIRC a staple in game rooms in hockey rinks across the nation.

Was just about to drop the Wayne Gretzky;s 3D hockey ref- it was the first video game I ever owned. The net actually caught on fire after a goal. In retrospect, that's kind of lame. Best fights of any NHL game though- and the B's were stacked, except between the pipes- IIRC the choice was Bill Ranford or Craig Billington.

Only 4 minutes. Not bad for a Saturday morning.

Also, if you are playing any of the NHL games without adhering to the gentlemen's agreement that the wrap-around or cross-crease move is outlawed, then you're playing checkers while everyone else is playing chess.

[Arroyo Con Frijoles]

that goalie's a wall!

[ThreeIfBaerga]

Playing NHL 09 last night, I was shocked to see that, after playing nearly 100 games without ever seeing one, Sobotka picked up the first non-fighting major I've seen. 5 minutes for boarding. Pretty cool but I wish they had more of these, along with high sticking majors.

[PedroSpecialK]

Agreed. The high sticking double minor at least would keep douchebags from me from sticklifting the other guy every possession. Until then, suck it haters.

btw if anyone's bored, I'll be online (LLyich) until gametime on NHL09
