NHL 2k3 is just around the corner and I can't wait.. unfortunately.. I don't know if I will be buying it because I have NHL 2002!! ARG.. lol.. well anyways.. I found some great news.. I already thought this was true but I now know that it is official.. 2K3 will be online!!! WOOOO... If there are any canucks that read this and I know there will be because there are many Canadians in these forums... that my friends is some very good news!! For the first time ever I'll actually get to play a hockey game over the net... I can't freaking wait!!! By the way here is some info on the game in case you're curious.

NHL2003 is gonna be better!!!...but no online play... :(

Haha.. thats why its not going to be better... If it did have online play then I would buy that game instead mainly because I've had many EA Hockey games and they have all been good.. But not having online just makes NHL2003 ... not one game that I would like to own.

damn i cant wait for a online hockey game :eek: its gonna be freaking great.......just wish nhl 2003 was the one getting online play but screw it...ea wants to screw xbox owners then screw ea....nhl 2k3 will be the one i will buy...why???....cause of online play......cant wait ...and i will ownzzzzz jooo allll with the rangers!! :D

I am defintely gettin this game...online come on you gotta.......:)

I find some to the features in the game pretty good too.. and interesting like being coach, general manager and SCOUT.. lol.. that is just great...

By the way.... Rangers have nothing against the almight Maple Leafs.

Meh, I am getting nhl 2003 from ea.

This game will be incredible! I can't wait to kick all your asses with the TB Lightning! :rolleyes:

Having over 50 unique trates sounds awesome! This game will destroy EA's hockey game to pieces!

If the EA game is gonig to be better.. go find some features of the game and prove it.. therefore we can all compare the game.. I myself am still sticking with 2k3 because of Live.

I have NHL 2002..... I thought it was a pretty good game.... I like the realism... The only thing was the announcing....It was funny to an extent...Then it just got annoying...This should be cool having ESPN doing the commentry...I can't wait to c this game..I geuss since some of u are saying 2k3 and some are saying 2003...Im goanna either rent both and c what one i like better, or go by trailers and stuff.....:) For some reason i think 2k3 will be better.....

I have 2002 and while it was a good game it had alot of bugs and glitches, and the fighting was horrible. Though i've never played a 2k hockey game I am hoping they will be good, with good fights, there hasn't been a hockey game with good fights for a while. (not counting hitz, cause its not real hockey)

Has there been any online leagues that have started for 2k3? If so I got the Stars.

it doesnt matter what hockey game u buy, im gettin 2k3 but ill waste all of u with my superior ability with the colorado avalanche!
i also think a league would b good, i call the avs.

LOL.. the game hasn't come out yet and there isn't a set date for it to be released yet... all it says is fall 2002...

But if there is a league to start later on down the line.. the leafs are mine.. guarunteed... or at least i hope. :)

y dont we start a league, and then by time the game comes out we'll b organized and ready to go.
