5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely GREAT game ... a must have for any Hockey Fan
Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2013
Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase
I love this game. I gotta admit that sports games could never hold my attention/interest for too long. Series from 98 to like 09 of NHL, NBA, Boxing or any other sport were too shallow and arcady. I couldn't force myself into playing them longer than a few days.

NHL 13 on the other hand is a freaking obsession :) It's so realistic and exciting, I can play it all night and only stop, 'cause I'm dead tired myself and miss even open net shots from 5 feet away :P

I don't care if you're a hard core hockey fan or not, you gotta love this game. Be a Pro mode is superb, you do actually feel like you're a hockey player grinding your way to the top of the hockey Olympus.

It's on sale as well, even though it's worth full retail price to me. I found it for $40 on Amazon and at my local Target, decided to go with Amazon, 'cause I didn't have time or desire to drive to the mall and spend any time there. Like almost any other guy, I HATE malls, especially going there with your GF/wife, I'd be forced to spend half of the day there, just wasting my time watching my GF buy another pair of shoes ... and complaining how my NHL 13 game is almost as expensive as her freaking shoes that she's gonna put in the closet and wear once a year ...

If you're not in a hurry or still thinking whether to buy 13 or not, I suggest to wait another 3 months for NHL 14, it's gonna be even more realistic and AWESOME! Check out the trailer and developer's commentary, they're going all in on that one.

Thanks for reading :P

4.0 out of 5 stars Superior Update
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2013
Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase
The new momentum element seems to be controversial among fans of the series but personally I appreciate it as it adds realistic game play. The faster a skater is moving the more difficult it is to turn a sharper angle. Deking with the puck also slows the player down slightly as it should. Players bump into each other more realistically, sometimes knocking the puck lose. The speed burst is another positive addition. Players fatigue from speed bursts as they would for real. Players seem to reflect their actual skills more accurately so if you have Crosby on a break away in full speed he seems to handle the task with greater skill than an average player. The graphics seem slightly better as well. For example the ice is less reflective which was sometimes a distraction in the previous version. Contact can be made with the goalie which can either lead to a penalty or sometimes jar the puck loose or simply knock the net off the moorings. On that note, goalies have been greatly enhanced. They produce much more realistic rebounds. The puck also never balances on the goalies shoulder for seconds at a time (thank god!). The cut scenes in between game plays is much better. The addition of the camera in net behind goalie is especially welcome although sometimes the goalies backside obscures the action. In general the cut scenes seem to have better camera angles and focus on highlights rather than monotonous plays. It should be said that the arenas seem to be extremely accurate to the actual venues. It's this attention to detail that should be appreciated. There's a feature that lets you play historical NHL moments which can be entertaining to play on occasion but I find it gets a bit boring after a while. It is nice that you have the option to chose a difficulty level in these segments however. Players also seem to look more like the real ones. Some of them still look pretty weird but for the most part, this has been much approved. Overall game play seems to be more unpredictable which is far more entertaining. This seems to be the case with each release. the farther back you go, the more predictable the game was. You could always rely on getting that "glitch goal" but that is getting more and more phased out thankfully.
The downsides.. The music selection is still pretty lame. At least there is no rap music... yet. Personally I just disable the music and input my own anthems and rock tunes. The most annoying issue I find in this version is when playing online. Players abuse the poke check feature. The maneuver has become a major aspect of the game when in reality poke checking is just an occasional occurrence. I really hope this issue is somehow amended in NHL14. If poke checking is more likely to draw a tripping penalty this may resolve the problem. Fighting isn't really an issue but I find it pretty redundant and boring. I've heard this aspect is going to be enhance in NHL14 so look forward to that. For now I just avoid it. Sometimes goalies try to play the puck in bad situations. Several times I seem to have a goalie rush out of net to set the puck for the D only to have an opposing forward rush down and swipe it first or intercept the goalies pass. Would really like to see this toned down drastically as I greatly prefer to let my D handle the puck instead.
Overall this game is excellent and any hockey fan should indulge!

(UPDATE)

I just want to emphasize the fact that poke checking is out of control in this game (at least on the online game mode). There should not be a body check count on the end of period game review but a count for poke checks. It really is that ridiculous. EA Sports better correct this in future releases!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best NHL game yet!
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2012
Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase
I highly recommend this game to any hockey fan at any level. This is the most detailed game that EA has come out with to date. They cover the gamete of players from the NHL to minors and world leagues. There are game modes to fulfill every gamers needs. Players can play online or offline in almost every type of mode. Younger players still learning the game of hockey will love playing "Be a Pro", which provides them with positional tips and scenarios to make their real life hockey IQ that much better. For those that love the classic style of playing as their favorite team and making all the trades you can take that online with GM connected.
When the game first came out EA had some server issues but they have resolved the problems and provide a wonderful online gaming experience. Even though the NHL lockout has taken most of the season so far, this game makes it much easier get through those long winter nights without your favorite team.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great game on the Ice
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2013
Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase
Gameplay is solid, and online play runs flawless. I've shared several great moments with friends online and we had some unforgettable times.

The menus and off-ice interaction is so sluggish and slow that its pretty hard to run a franchise mode or season... or do much of anything. I'm a sports gamer through and through, and a franchise mode player almost exclusively. I could not stomach more than a couple games in the mode because off-ice operations take way too long. Simulating the CPU games, just to get to my own game took a few minutes. Changing menu screens takes sometimes a minute. Too painful. By the time you get where you want to be, you have forgotten why you are there.

As a result, I have already stopped playing the game. It's a shame, because on gameplay alone I was tempted to write a 5 star review... but that wouldn't be far as the navigation experience does bring it down a peg (or two)
