EA Sports NHL 11 Review

The NHL 11 game has been improved greatly from earlier games and will please the most diehard hockey fans and lesser fans.

The 2011 version of this game is going to set the bar for sports games for a very long time. Basically depending on how much time you are going to spend there are different game modes for you. The EA Sports Ultimate Hockey League is a system where trading cards are your players on ice and are sent to build their team up though spending in game money. It is a challenge for gamers to build and gather together a truly great team, and allows for you to makes every draft choice, making it a fun exciting game mode.

EA has listened to the gamers and has developed some things that will drive the game pretty close to as real as it can be. The major example of this is that now the hockey sticks can break and are realistically left on the ice as tripping hazards and are left until the end of the play, like in a real game. EA even took it a step further where your player can run around kicking the puck with his skates, until he can run back to the bench to get a new one. The speed of the game has been dialed back because it interfered with players pulling awesome dekes. This also makes long rang precision passing a tougher challenge and increases the necessity for dekeing.

NHL 11 is a great game that has great features and is a highly likable game for even non-hockey fans. EA has wrapped together the characteristics of the NHL and made a truly likeable game once again.
