NHL 14 Features

NHL® Collision Physics – Developed from the same core technology that powers EA SPORTS FIFA’s critically-acclaimed Player Impact Engine, NHL® Collision Physics introduces bigger, more thrilling hits, and truer-to-life collisions. A new left-stick control scheme makes delivering a game-changing hit simpler and more rewarding than ever.

Enforcer Engine – There is a code in hockey, when it's broken you have to respond. A first for the NHL franchise, Fight Night technology delivers a new 3rd person experience, physics-based punch targeting and player size differentiation to every fight, creating the most authentic and electrifying experience yet.

One-Touch Dekes – Experience what it feels like to be a superstar through a new, more responsive deking system controlled only with the left stick and one-button. From beginner to advanced gamers, the system allows for quicker reactive dekes and intuitive combination dekes, creating more moves than ever before.

True Performance Skating – Built on the breakthrough innovation that introduced physics-based skating and over 1,000 new skating animations to the EA SPORTS NHL franchise. The second year of the True Performance Skating features improved acceleration, explosive first-strides, quicker pivots and enhanced lateral skating, resulting in greater player responsiveness and unprecedented control.

Live the Life – The new incarnation of the Be a Pro Career Mode, now you can truly Live the Life of an NHL player. On or off the ice, every decision you make shapes your legacy as an athlete. Interact with teammates outside of the rink. Take part in media interviews. Each choice you make will affect your relationship with fans, teammates and management, influencing your skills and progression.

EA SPORTS NHL Online Seasons – NHL 14 adds the best-in-class promotion and relegation system in the sports category to the Hockey Ultimate Team & EA SPORTS Hockey League modes. Win games and advance to the next division to face tougher competition, fall short and see your team bumped down. Teams will be able to track their progress across multiple seasons.

Can't wait till NHL15 when they use the same core technology that powers EA's Need for Speed game for breakaways.

I like how they use more real life footage than actual game footage..

so basically some more bs gimmicks added in which they could have done back in 2004

They took out half the new features they advertised in NHL 13 and stopped supporting the game after 6 weeks.

Not spending $60.

Sounds like a rip off off NBA 2K series My Player mode. May buy the game just for this mode if its anything close to the 2K series.

do you have to play in first person mode. I hate doing that for nhl13 ...or maybe i havn't look far enough into the options yet before giving up

gaay.. the nhl franchise has gone down since NHL 12... NHL 11 was the greatest.

Just interested in the 1 touch deke. If that allows more dangles, I'm all for it.

Reserving judgment until Gary Thorne is confirmed as gone. The commentary is absolutely tired now.

I'm gonna grab it only because I get NHL like ever year. It's probably going to be a recycled version of NHL 13. I really hope they put back the better team wins like NHL 12

Do you guys remember this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2_on_2_Open_Ice_Challenge
It's exactly like NBA Jam but Hockey.

I didn't like the 3 on 3 arcade game on DLC.

NHL Hitz Pro Gameplay PS2 - YouTube

N64's Wayne Gretzky's 3d hockey. Charge up your slap shot, shoot at goalie, watch flaming puck bulldoze the goalie into net and goal!

NHL Stanley Cup SNES. Bounce puck off back glass and the goalie will run back. Puck comes back out in front .. score!

NHL all-star hockey '95 was even better for the Genesis. Goalies can't stop a pass so you just pass forward and it'll go in 100%. I remember setting up a 60 minute game and scoring 100 goals. The game crashes after 99 because the scoreboard can't handle 3 digits.

I had no life :(

They introduced the new hitting engine in 09 or 10 and it was awesome. then every following year it just got worse and worse. nhl 13 hits are so batshit comical.

we shall see. Play test monday!

i am likely going to skip this version. i agree with the post above, neither 12 or 13 has surpassed 11.
