I just had to make a comment about the game to see if others felt the same way. I have been playing hockey games for years and have played many good and bad ones. I like the game its alot of fun and good gameplay so i have no problem with any of that. I jut cant figure out this color commentary.. like how can a company making a videogame add commentary that is never said in a real hockey game.. like "u realy nail em' when u lead with the shoulder".. or "this aint a game for sissies".. "what a hit with that shoulder-cap"... many others are said that i cant believe were included.. not to mention that they are repeated constantly on any decent hit.. no variety.. I have been watching for 20 years and have never heard anyone mention a shoulder-hit or shoulder-cap.. because those things are a given.. u dont hit with anything else do u.. these games cost millions of dollars and they must have guys producing them that have never watched a game of hockey.. in the next game actually watch some hockey and keep it simple for the color commentary..

To go along with that, why can't we have the announcing change or added as the season goes along. That way the announcing can be fresh. Just let us download this as well as the roster and USE THEM ONLINE!!!!!

That's a great idea! Commentary updates via the net! I'm so sick of hearing all the same crap over and over again, that I've turned commentary off. Something like that needs to be kept fresh and up to date on a regular basis.

This goes along my post, that Presentation is the aspect lacking from this game more than anything. You have the ESPN name, please use it accordingly.

You can hit with you hip/***, forearms, chest, not just a shoulder.
