Tiger 09 and NHL 2K9 Demos Available

FIRST!!!!!!!!

nice!

DAMN DAMN DAMN

i’m just KID N like jason

if ur NOT 1st ur LAST

I think I might actually by a HOCKEY game dis yr

I tried both of these and wasn’t impressed by either.

I’ve never bought a golf game before, but I enjoyed the Tiger demo. I actually enjoyed last years Tiger demo as well (I heard the game had problems, though). Last year’s Tiger demo probably has the record for longevity on my harddrive. I never bought the game, but anytime I felt like banging out 3 holes of virtual golf it was right there!

They’ve previously stated mid-September.

skating feels clunky. puck physics are horrible. its feels very arcady. nhl08 has the most fluid skating engine to date. 2k feels very stiff and constricting.

Since when does the PS3 get it before 360. Seems like the Ps3 is finally making its mark I’m starting to see it more in game reviews also.

I’m a big hockey fan, I played a few games of the NHL 2K9 demo. I didn’t like the classic controls, The pro controls were a bit similar to NHL 08′s in that you shoot with the right analog stick. It wasn’t exactly the same, because you can’t roll the analog stick back and then forward to cradle the puck an unleash a wrist shot. I kept trying to do that but my player would go into a slapshot animation. The only wrist shot I could do was if i pushed the right analog straight up.

I highly doubt this game was built from the ground up. For one the goalie mode is the exact same as 2K8. It’s still got the vision code and an icon appears where the puck will go. NHL’s goalie mode is much better than this. The play even slows when a shot is taken if you’re the goalie to give you a second to react. I don’t know how this will effect the game online with a human goalie and everyone else at real time.

I thought it was hysterical at how much ice was spraying up. I didn’t notice it at all until I was in goalie mode. When the puck was at the far end of the ice, the ice would spray quite a bit. I can see it if it were in front of the net where players crash the net, but it was happening around the blue line. Really big sprays, like a fountain. I cracked up laughing.

You can swing you stick with the right analog stick. It worked pretty well. x was the turbo button in pro control mode, but I wasn’t sure if you had to hold it or not. Didn’t seem like too much of a difference.

The graphics weren’t great. Overall, it was ok. It’s supposed to have online team play, which 2K is calling “team up” or something like that. I’ll get it cause of that, I like online team play, but NHL doesn’t have to try too hard to be much better than that.

Everyone is bashing the TW 09 Demo. I think that demo is pretty good. But of course (no pun intended) the golf courses have a little bit of a yellowish tint, but that’s only the demo. I cannot wait to play the whole game when it comes out 8-26-08. I still have TW 08 for the PS2 at home and I play that extensively. TW 08 was ok, outside all the issues, but another year in the development cycle, it may get better. Seems like the new EA games are trying to make it easier for the non-gamer to play too. I am going to miss the Glen Abbey course, but I think Wolf Creek, may make it a little better.

Hey Pasta, Xbox live advertised all last week that the demo for Bejing 2008 was going to come out last friday the day of the opening ceremonies. Do you know if they pulled the plug on the demo or if it will come out anytime.
Thanks.
