I am getting a PS3 mode for Christmas and I will get NHL 09.

Can someone tell me what you can do in Be A Pro mode?

Pinnacle of Survival Posts : 8155 Registration date : 2008-01-31

Be a Pro mode is great you basically play a lot of seasons as your created player, and its just addicting. You can pick any position and theres a lot of different types to pick from..like playmaker, sniper, so on. The beginning intro of the game is amazing. Youre in a 3rd person view of yourself and youre in the tunnels. Its wicked fun Goob. It has a great camera for when youre playing be a pro too. The coach gives you comments at the end of periods at the end of the game and you get grades based on stats, team play, and position. You can use those grades to up your EXP. So you can be a better player. :) But online leagues are even better. . Playing 6 v.s. 6 humans is sweet. If you ever get online for your ps3 join the team im on, and ill message you the website! =D. I hope you get a ps3 Goob.

This is the best game ever made rofl.

Pinnacle of Survival Posts : 8155 Registration date : 2008-01-31

I like NHL games better than Madden or any other sports game. I have been collecting NHL games since they first came out.

I have:

NHL 94 (Sega Genesis)
NHL 97 (Sega Genesis)
NHL 98 (PlayStation)
NHL 99 (Playstation)
NHL 2002 (PS2)
NHL 2004 (PS2)
NHL 06 (PS2)
NHL 07 (PSP)

And I will be getting 09 for PS3.

Pinnacle of Survival Posts : 8155 Registration date : 2008-01-31

Great list. Mine would be-
NHL 93-Super Nintendo
NHL94-Super Nintendo
NHL95-Super Nintendo
NHL 99- PS1
NHL 2000-PS1
NHL 2001-PS1
NHL 2002-PS1
NHL 03-ps1
NHL04-PS2 (I think)
NHL05-PS2
NHL06-PS2
NHL07-Xbox
NHL08-PS2
NHL09-PS3!!
This might not be accurate, its off the top of my head.

All EA games as you can see.

**Hero of Time** Posts : 11893 Registration date : 2008-02-20

NHL 06-Gamecube
NHL 2K9-Wii.

One time I rented a 2k game and I hated it so much. Never played one since.

NHL 05-08 on the PS2 was pretty much the same exact thing except for roster changes.

Nice collection.

Mercenary Posts : 872 Registration date : 2008-04-20

NHL 2k9 has NOTHING compared to Nhl 09 i love it
the demo is addicting so i can't wait for the proper game to be released here
3 days!!!

Pinnacle of Survival Posts : 8155 Registration date : 2008-01-31

^Good to hear you played the demo. I loved it as well, but the full game will blow you away.

Beholder Posts : 257 Registration date : 2008-09-20

Be a pro, FTW. I'm still on the AHL, playing for Providence.

My predictions for the first 7 NHL openers: OCTOBER 4th Rangers 3- Lightning 1 Lightning will still be jet lagged after the flight to europe, rangers take this one in the third period, tied 1-1 until the third. 
Penguins 4- Senators 2
Senators still haven't awaken, you-whoo this is the season, Gerber will get a no shooter in the 1st but after that he'll be pummled by shots. 
 
OCTOBER 5th 
 
Rangers 3- Lightning 2
Closer this time, after the wake-up call the lightning put more effort in. 
 
Penguins 1- Senators 3 
Me being a Pengys fan can't bear to say it but the sens have a good chance of taking it. 
 
OCTOBER 9th 
 
Maple Laughs 1- Red Wings 5
Whether it be Toskala or Pogge either one will blow up, leafs lone goal will be a garbage one. Red Wings stride to an easy win. 
 
Bruins 5- Avs 2
Bruins proved themselves in pre-season and I'm sure they'll take this one. Avs just don't have the right composure after the sweep in the playoffs. 
 
Flames 4- Canucks 1
Flames are on a roll. Period.

Do you have 09 for ps3 or 360..? Im still on the minors for the Wolf Pack as a right wing, but on my 2nd BAP, im a goalie and im in the NHL. It only took me 4 games because the Wolf Pack traded me to Tampa Bay and they brought me right to the Pros! D:
I like your predictions..LETS GO RANGERS. ^_^

@Goob- The Rangers' opener is against the lightning lol.

Last, Best Hope of Humanity Posts : 8880 Registration date : 2008-02-01
