NHL Legacy Edition Coming to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3

I have no problem with them doing this, or even charging $60 for it if they decide to since they're being up front about what it is.

Would I pay $60 for it? Hell no, but as long as they're telling people what it is so that they can make an educated decision about whether, or not they want to buy it, I'm fine with it.

Guess I really shouldn't be surprised those of us still on the PS3/X360 aren't getting a whole new game. The only reason I'd been planning to get 16 was due to the major division realignment in the AHL anyway. Still waiting for them to add the ECHL.

My hope is that NHL 16 ps4 version has preseason games/take over team pre draft. But if it doesn't I would buy ps3 version for $30 or less.

Regardless as a XB1 owner, I'm glad to see they did this so more resources could be used on NHL 16.

You honestly believe in that they are going to take any money saved and put it towards making NHL 16 the best hockey game they can? I may be underestimating, but I'm pretty sure that a group of execs are gonna divide the savings and ball out with that cash before they put it into a product on a niche market in which they are the only ones making a game.

Just went to gamestop.com and it has NHL Legacy Edition listed for $59.99, though dunno if that's official or just a standard placeholder (meaning they're just listing the standard price for PS3/X360 games as the selling price) since we don't even have a release date yet.

The NHL dev team has traditionally been one of the smaller ones working on one of the annual sports releases. I don't think its a matter of money per se. More like, we have 100ish people working on this game and 95% of that team's focus is going to be the current gen version.

I would pay 40 for it, nothing more. For me it would be ok, since i don't play a hockey game since Wayne Gretzky 3D Hockey on the N64.



But 60 would be offensive...

I would consider it for no more than $30 with possibly $40 at a max. I enjoy EA's games and I appreciate the honesty they have marketed this as. Being a person who cannot afford an xbox 1, I still appreciate the game although it's a rehash.

Who knows, since its a rehash, who knows what we may be able to do cross-titles. We will all have to wait and see.
