For a simple answer, yes, but simply mentioning "the other game" in a respective forum isn't the problem. The problem is when nothing can be said about one game without someone shooting back with a negative about the other in a seemingly endless cycle. Well, that and the on-going insults (direct or implied) hurled around regarding who's on what side of the fence.

But if we can't discuss what we feel is lacking in one series without constantly putting down the other, then perhaps "we only talk 2k in the 2k forum and EA in the EA forum" will have to suffice...

Got you thanks for the fast response so I guess the best way for me is to play both sides when im in each others forum in a constructive manner and not mention the others game .
Now I'll know how the Swiss feel

It bascially comes down to putting the other game down because you like this game. Not seeing what each one does better, but trying to come in here and bring down this game becasue you are so gunho for the other game. It happens a lot, but the Mods do a good job at taking care of that!. Any ways I like what I am hearing and seeing. I still like playing this game and I am very pumped for this game and more info!

I would I know that is not a really big thing, but to me it is! I love that part when they do it at the tank.

Who cares what's sim/not-sim, just give me a game that's fun to play.

NHL '94 is still the best-playing hockey game to date IMO, and it's hardly what one would call a "simulation" of the sport.

Good point. I don't think we can ever expect a truly 'sim' game from any game publisher. What we should expect though is one that is fun, challenging, balanced, appeals to the senses, and represents the important aspects of the game. Trying to condense 60 minutes of hockey into 15 to 20 minutes of actual gameplay on a console without sacrificing or omitting some 'sim' aspects is not realistic, IMO.

I agree with you all , its seems all these years we cried for sim and when we got it IMO many arent more enjoyable then last gen .
Last Fun game I played was legends of wrestlemania was it perfect no was it a sim no but man did I have fun ! gotta go pickup FNR4
