sounds like this totally stripped down game could be best described as NHL 16 Demo....................with a $60 price tag

WOW!

This has not turned out well for EA...as I've said before, I am strictly an offline gamer, so the lack of modes was not as huge an issue for me..but hearing about these little suprises has me second guessing everything. I was giving the game the benefit of the doubt...even defending it at times...but this is clearly an unfinished product being presented to us as something that is polished. EA, as a corporation (not necessarily only the Burnaby team) should be ashamed of themselves. I know it would have been a nightmare to have to push the game back another year...but clearly this would have been beneficial for the consumer (clearly EA does not care about this).

I am completely on the fence as to whether or not to buy this game now...the fact that something as integral to Be A GM as the ability to draft for youself, has been left out is inexcusable!

Welcome back to 2006.

That alone is concerning enough. I'd bet $100 that they took retired jerseys out. Dang.

*Check that, I just read Bigwill's comments. This MIGHT, and let me stress MIGHT, save the game for me. I know it sounds petty, but this would have been the straw that breaks the camel's back. I never actually play minor league games but I loved the fact that it was there, and even more so I love putting my minor league rosters together, along with seeing players accumulate stats. This game has gone from a must-buy, day one purchase, to a no thanks, not purchasing, back to a maybe I'll get it. What an emotional roller coaster for a hockey video game fanatic.

So they want us to pay 60 bucks for three game modes?

From what I'm reading, I'm wondering why NHL 14 wasn't released on Xbox One/PS4, since it doesn't seem like the extra time they had was used to get more things NHL 15.

I suspect that most hardcore fans, such as myself, will be doing just that. I have been there from the beginning...NHLPA 93 and have owned every game since (I still have them all). So not getting the newest one hurts a little. But I refuse to be a goof and give EA the thumbs up on doing a terrible job. They must learn, that this kind of crap is entirely unacceptable. If they wanted $25, then okay...maybe, but sure as **** I will not pay a cent more than that.
