Some of you might recall seeing the NHL 13 Hercules Check, a couple of weeks ago.

EA Sports has responded and explains how it actually happens. The end result is quite hilarious.

im in the persuasion that this is "scripted" by EA. they cannot figure out or they cannot "cure" this hercules check. so, they came up with this video to make fun what they cannot tune/or patch to correct.

still funny though... but GENIUS way to deflect the "boo-boo"

I really don't understand how everyone finds this so funny. What the NHL team should be focused on is how they put out a broken game every year.

Amusing. Good to see they can laugh at themselves and have fun.

In the past it's been very problematic, hence why I played little to none of NHL 11 and 12. But this year's version, while with it's own problems, is very playable and exciting. It's far from perfect, but a lot of people, myself included, seem to be having fun with it.

IF this NHL 13 is broken like NHL 12 then I WILL BE UPSET with this hercules check. but because EA did something, imho, great job in updating the penalty issues and new skating engine that works, this glitch is a slide of humor specially how EA responded to it.

NHL 13 is far from being perfect but towards the right direction. something then can build on, like the way they invented the Right analog stick as your hockey stick.

Smart strategy by EA of having a good joke with what is a blood-churning glitch. Hillarious.

Fine. But just remember this. Next time you're at work, you are NEVER, EVER alllowed to have ANY fun. Ever.

Lighten up, man. It's just a game.
