MadDog2020 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I was trying to reserve a copy to pick up later at Best Buy and it will only let you pre-order. According to GameStop's website, it ships tomorrow. Anyone know what's going on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I got 2k8 today, I don't think any stores had 08 and I had to check 3 EB's to find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestevens Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 it got an 8.9 on ign. Pretty high especially from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Yeah as every one pretty much said, 2K today, 08 tomorrow. Anyone notice how the Sens jersey on the cover of 2K was an Edge jersey? Also, Madden is on the back cover and the jersey looks exactly like the current one. Though I think some of the jerseys on the back were not renderings of Edge jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestevens Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I went to bestbuy and picked the game up. They had them out so i just bought it. Good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscags Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 So I was playing 2K8 last night and it says that you can download all of the new 07/08 jerseys, but you have to go to the 2KSports.com website. I finally hooked up my PS3 to get internet capabilities, and it will be just a download. I proceed to check out the site and see what I have to do, and it says they will not be available until September 15th, after all teams have announced their new jerseys. Wonder if that is true, and we will see them all by Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 We should just change the title of this thread to NHL 08 - NHL 2K8. I picked up 2k8 yesterday, 08 wasn't out here yet but I'm going to try to pick it up today. 2k8 is a lot better than I expected though. It's pretty fun to play and it's a lot different than 2k7 and judging from the 08 demo, the defense in 2k8 is much better than 08's. I always pick up both games though so I'll be able to give a better comparison hopefully later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 To the owners of 08, (or 2k8 but im just getting 08), did they have the rock or is it still CAA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coorslight Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I got 08 today and have been playing for a few hours but, like the idiot/drunk I am, I never thought to look. I haven't gotten to play a game in "The Rock" yet...I'll check later and see if they changed it. I shall report back tomorrow unless someone beats me to it.

devils26 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Well i got it, and it says "Prudential Center" around center ice, but it doesnt look as if they made any attempt to make it look like the brochure... you honestly can't tell it's anything other than a basic stadium.

thelastonealive Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Did anyone get 2K8 for PS2 yet? It seems like they didn't even try. They updated the roster, added the lame "Superstar moves", and that was it. The announcers even say the same things they said in 2K7. New names that weren't in 2K7 are added but sound horribly out of place, like bad English dubbing on a Japanese film. Also, they misprounce so many names...Johnny O-die-ya? Since when does a U make an I sound...? I don't know, I'll still play it because I like the gameplay and all, but they really stiffed folks this year. Did they just put all their focus into the PS3/360 versions...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghdi Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 08 may be the best hockey game ever, its definitely the best EA effort in a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDog2020 Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 (edited) 08 may be the best hockey game ever, its definitely the best EA effort in a long time It's outstanding. You can move the puck tape to tape very quickly, crisply, and accurately- much more so than in '07- and the skating is awesome. The d still isn't that great, but coupled with the practice features and the ability to create custom plays, it's BY FAR the best hockey video game I've ever played- and I've pretty much played 'em all.
