I am burned out...

[MizzouRah]

This game has finally burned me out. We really need two hockey games as this series has gotten stale for me, which sucks right in the middle of the NHL playoffs.

I just can't get through a game anymore.

Every game just feels exactly the same to me. *sigh*

Look on the bright side: you're burned out close to when news may start trickling about NHL 13.... Lol.

well since that may not happen anytime soon, hit up gamestop, pick up that other game that was out in 2010 and head to this thread and snag these..

maybe even pick up the other game that was out in 2008 and snag these..

http://www.operationsports.com/forum...ch-2012-a.html (this also includes all historic and international teams named)

at least those 2 options are better than none. i get bored with those at times as well and pop NHL 12 back in.

I think this feeling mainly comes from a lack of difference in how the players/teams play.

Also, the fact that all the arenas feel the same.

I second this.
Doesn't matter who you play or which players are on their team; every club and every player is the exact same. All of them have the same abilities as the next team/player.

For the first time in my hockey gaming life, I have absolutely zero interest in any news about NHL13. I know it'll be no different than NHL 08>>>>NHL12 - except some upgrades to HUT and EASHL.
I get the feeling that EA really doesn't care about the offline gamer anymore.
