NHL 2K9 / NHL 09

[Cactus Drags]

Gonna try and get a game on in the next 15-30 minutes. Looks like it's just me, Ad and Slogger for now.

[Evafreak]

Would you guys recommend this for a first timer or would I be better buying an older version first?

[Plubby]

I haven't played it, and I would reccommend it. You can play with the NHL 94 controls to learn the game, and when you want to play with more features, you can upgrade to the full controls.

[Cactus Drags]

I think it'd be better to jsut jump in with the skill stick and everything, might find it a little awkward learning the button controls then switching to the stick. But yeah, it's great fun, the controls aren't a great deal different from last year, so I doubt going for an older version would really help much. Maybe try renting first to see if you like it?

[Whisper]

Ad you demon! Awesome pass!

Consecutive wins! An EWB first!

Best run of results I think we've managed tonight guys.

L 1-0

And all since I joined the team, Coincidence? I think not!

[Ruki]

I say I should have played, but I would have fucked shit up.

Having you in the team probably brings the average trueskill rating down.

[Slogger]

Ignoring that, Should we make a list of recommended songs for in game?

[LL!]

Why do you make the rest of the team look bad Slogger?

[Maxx]

No, do it yourself.

[Toe]

Good job guys!

No, do it yourself.

Alright, For everyone's enjoyment, I found this under "NHL 09 Custom Music" on Google.

I think I have a runner on all bases there.

after flicking through it there seems to be some good stuff for the hockey buffs, Mind you will have to convert to WMP because putting onto disk for transfer to XBOX. (I think, MP3's didn't work when I tried on SDvR 2008)

[Edit] My short list for wrestling themes that might be good fits for team intro's.

Out Of My Way (Zach Gowen's Theme)

Invasion – V2 (Goldberg's WWE Theme)

Beautiful People (Smackdown Circa 2002)

This Is The New Sh!t (ECW's Theme Circa One week last year)

I Walk Alone (Batista's Theme)

Close Your Eye's (Christians Last WWE Theme)

The Red Red Kroovy - WWE Edit (Edge's Theme Circa 2002)

The last two I've tried and they work well, The others work well in theory (But so does communism), But I haven't bothered downloading them yet.

Nice couple of wins last night, even the computer chipped in with a couple of goals, one of them unassisted. Taking the puck deep into their zone and hooking it back for a one-timer in the slot seems to work well, I say we do that more.

[Cactus Drags]

I'll be around a lot tonight and tomorrow night for games which we better win, my +/- is like negative 24 right now.

I have reached the 20-game plateau, and got rewarded with like 3 skill points. Gay.

I just noticed... team leader on assists... hells yeah

I need to put more in the net though

Yup, around tonight also... I reckon it could be the first time we've have 6 people playing together. Would be awesome.

[Cactus Drags]

I don't mind playing goalie once or twice tonight, I'll debut my new goalie gear.

Go fuck yourself. I still don't have a point.

[Cactus Drags]

You need to play soon Ruki, we're slowly but surely turning into a finesse team. It's disgusting.

[Ruki]

Why? So you can laugh at me as I get 389045237894896 hits and no assists?
