It's been a few weeks, how are the sales numbers?

Any word on this? I tried my best to support the game until after I played it for a significant amount of time. It's severely lacking in my opinion and a part of me hopes that the game suffers financially because of it. I honestly think they should have waited to release the game until NHL 16 (on PS4 and Xbox One).

I know Walmart in Canada is putting the game on sale for 49$ from September 18-24. I'm guessing it didn't do too well on next gen.

Be careful what you wish for or the only hockey game you'll be playing next year is a text sim on your pc.

WHY so many people have this kind of thinking? NHL is a milkcow for EA. This is the reason why they put so little effort to improve this game...because many will still buy no matter if its just a tad improvement or backward step from previous release.

What we want to see is that EA start treating their consumers right. Releasing the game with bare essentials such as in BaGM... or BAP that cannot sim to the next shift etc...is purely BS.

IF, and that is a big iF, the will not produce another NHL so be it.... I love the game of hockey....but I cannot stand a video game that cannot replicate the excitement of the game I love.

Excellent post and to the POINT!!!!
if ea hockey goes the way of the dodo bird so be it. I am more than confident that if there's a market for it another company will fill that void. And hopefully a better one at that!!

Numbers probably won't be available until next week since it's only been a week from release.
