NHL 2K10 Hands-On Preview

[Avizzv92]

Completely pumped for this to come out for the Wii, I don't care if the graphics won't be as good I'm just looking for a good time hockey game... And Im finally getting one it seems

Too bad it's the same month school starts which will cut my free time considerably...

Still curious what this Wii Exclusive feature is... For those of you familiar with MK:Wii perhaps NHL 2k10 will add it's own channel where you can check out your online stats/standings/teams/players/information/ect... on the channel without needing to insert the disc. Or it could be Wii Connect24, though possible it could be Mii integration, not sure if I'd want that though.

Yeah it sounds like this game is going to kick *** on Wii. I might have to get a Wii now. I can tell my wife it would be good for my son's fine motor skills.

If you do get one and need motion+ attachment and you enjoy golf I recommend purchasing Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 Wii... Not entirely sure but I think you can still get a free bundle M+ with it and it's an amazing game I spent half my Summer playing it and still am. And the bundle will save you $10... Even for those I know who dislike golf in real life have enjoyed it.

Sweet, I beat my little nephew *** in boxing. That was great, but he killed me in tennis.

Sounds good, 2 good games of hockey equals = Win

I'm so glad hockey and basketball still have competition in the sports gaming world. We benefit greatly. Without 2k, Live wouldn't have started making a comeback. Without EA's hockey game, 2k wouldn't have had to rebuild their game.

Great preview. I'm pumped for this game. I can't wait for both hockey games this year.

Totally agree with you, Acedeck. I admit, I have a soft spot for the NHL 2k series (though I'm not a complete lemming -- I guess it's because I've followed NHL 2k since it's inception), but what I want first and foremost is the OPTION to go with either EA's or 2k's game.

This year, both games look incredible. I really think we're in for a big year for NHL games.

Nice preview Richard!

How much time did you have with the game?
