Graphics are nice and all but we want substance. We buy sports games for the additional content and not necessarily to see the sparkle or glare from the graphics. To be honest, this is a hockey game and the most important element to talk about it the game modes that are included in the package. The gameplay feels right and they definitely added some specific advanced dekes that, if done right, can put you above your competition every time. There is only so much you can say after playing so many games of hockey to be honest. The sound design is crisp and clean except the commentators get repetitive and boring in their dialogue. I love recognizing the players and seeing the specific details of each arena done right. The graphics are great (other than the typical dull crowd animations and models). Sure, you have to start somewhere but I think something else could be done here.Д«efore diving into the game modes letвЂ™s get the basics out of the way. It is obviously needed but the presentation of it all just dragged on and there wasnвЂ™t much excitement to the tasks. It seemed like a quantity versus quality type dilemma and they chose the former.

I understand that there is a heightened need for visuals and this can take time to load but it hurts the flow.

Every screen seems to need to load and there is no seamless transitioning. The layers that it takes to just get to where you need to go can take an extended period of time.

A lot of returning players to this series may not see this as a lot because of previous titles including a majority of the content but since I have not played an NHL title in years it was daunting just looking at the grid of game modes.ДЇirst and foremost, the menu navigation system is awful.

My mind was actually blown with the amount of content that I could dive into. NHL 19 is the newest addition to EA SportsвЂ™ hockey series and there is a lot included in this package.

Some would say all they need is a roster update every month and they could get away with that. DonвЂ™t get me wrong, I absolutely love the hockey games and I love picking my favourite team and beating the opposition into submission (not accurate) but the games are becoming stale and they all play the same. There seems to be more love given to the Madden and FIFA games than any of other sports game. I always have to ask myself whether I am playing NHL 15 or NHL 17 or the newest addition to the series because the changes are so minimal to the naked eye. Oh boy does this franchise need a facelift.
