It's a nice move by EA and we couldn't agree more, out with the AI and in with the human intelligance. Maybe this type of true sports team online play will slowly become the standard from now on. We can only hope.

I don't care because NBA Live is garbage. Period. If they put this on NBA 2K8 then this is real news. I can't believe ppl actually play that crap.

This IS the future of sports videogames. NHL 08 is limited to 3 on 3, but there's a whole league of 200+ players playing it at http://www.leaguegaming.com/nhlteam/
I don't like hoops, but this is pretty sweet. Wish they'd update NHL to 5 on 5...but then there'd be no reason to buy NHL 09 =)

DJ - I play NHL online almost every night. While it's not 100% perfect, lag is rarely an issue 1on1 or team play. I don't know why you had a bad experience - was this right after launch?

Sorry...mentioned it wrong...i was talking about NHL 07...i know 08 is better at it, but i've see it there too, not to that extent though.

in NHL 08, the camera follows the puck by default. pressing select switches so it follows your player. you can do this any time/as many times as you want in the game.

I love the picture. I'm assuming a finger represents a person, otherwise it would be 50 fingers, but lost connection with the title of the book.

I will be buying this game soon just for this reason. I hope to find same gamers that know basketball and will play their position... No guards camping in the paint and centers/pf's out on the 3 pt line(except for a few like Dirk or Rasheed).. Also guys that arent stat whores and play team ball...
If you "play the right way" as Larry Brown said when the Pistons won it all in 04, add me on Live

too bad this "feature" is in NHL 08 and when it's not lagging the hell out, it's disconnecting you before the game starts. yeah!
