The NHL series has become the new NBA Live. It’s evident that less and less is done with this game each year. The gameplay is horrendous. Anything from hitting, shooting, goaltending, passing, computer AI, it’s all pretty much bad. I’m throwing in the towel for playing this game, it’s just frustrating.
