NHL 2K10 Patch List

[TIm]

After giving NHL 2010 up, I was so looking forward to this game post patch.... Then I started reading this thread and WOW 2k sure is pissin me off... They can blame Sony all they want but I call BS on that.... I think they developed with 360 in mind and it would be too much work for them... Maybe not but as a long time 2k supporter even since 2ksports became just that... I will not buy another game from them...I am serious about this.. I was planning on buying 2k basketball after downloading and playing the demo but Not now...That piss poor company can Piss off.. If they can't get us a patch as the 360 users, then make the game playable at least.... Videogames are going downhill and fast....

Well the NHL series is a different story from the NBA series. The NBA Series is Visual Concepts/2K's baby, much like Madden is for EA. It has already recieved a patch for both systems, so not buying the NBA game is only cheating yourself really.

The NHL series has nowhere near the budget and or the staffing most likely, so even it's not Sony to blame, poor sales over the last several years probably are. Truth of the matter though, none of us know why and may never know there isn't a patch for the PS3. Take a minute though to think if you were in their shoes though. If you could, would you patch one system or none at all. No matter what the backlash from not patching one system, no patching at all, is even less fruitful.In any case NHL 2K10 is quite playable even without the patch.

2k not patching the PS3 yet because of Sony is only conjecture, not fact. We've yet to hear a confirmation of why there isn't one as of now (which of course has only fueled PS3 conspiracy theories). Hopefully the success of the 360 patch will result in a PS3 patch.

Really though Savoie its a double edged sword. I seem to recall NHL2k selling pretty well last gen, and it was critically acclaimed by both the hardcore fans and reviewers alike. If 2k is actually serious about competing with EA's resurgence with hockey, there should be a patch for both systems.

Personally pre patch I didn't find the game to be very playable at all with the defensive and goalie issues, with that being said I certainly feel for those with PS3's, since the're pretty much stuck with a mess of a game.

The 2KHockey.net mods were alluding to this but in reality what they mean is that they don't want to part with any more money (bandwidth/storage charges etc.), although when I mentioned the 2 free patches the topic got locked quick enough.

This is hardly Sony's fault but I wouldn't expect any proper confirmation from them, just look at how the patch was released.

Maybe a third party ported it and their programmers don't have the time or know-ho to put out a patch fast enough?

I just purchased it last week when I heard initially that there was going to be a patch. If they don't end up patching for PS3 I am done with 2K as well, at least until they can prove they support ALL their customers.
