NHL 08 FPS
Xbox 360 - 60
PS3 - 30

NHL 09 FPS
XBOX 360 & PS3 - 60

I'm not too sure what you're talking about, the frame rates on this years is way better. Last years was choppy.

I'd like to know too. I searched google for "attributes guide/faq/description" and couldn't find any answers.

I'd also like to know what the Balance attribute does? Like specifically, does it help you stay standing if you're body checked? Or if you body check someone else does it help your recovery time?

No I'm dead serious. Anything is an upgrade for PS3 I suppose. On the 360 specifically, just feels slower and not as smooth vs. '08. Then again it might have been my 360 on its last legs as it RROD a couple of days after lol!

It'll be released some time in November when all the new 3rd jerseys for the teams have been released. I'm guessing after the Canucks release their jersey on the 15th?

I had the exact same issue. You and your friend should both go to the purple blade of the Xbox Dashboard. From there run the Network test, and see what the result is for NAT. For NHL09 to work properly with everyone, NAT should read as Open. If it says moderate or strict you are probably going to run into issues.

To make your NAT open you need to make sure your Xbox is in your router's DMZ, or on your router open the ports that the Xbox needs.
