Im Crazy, but I keep going back to NHL Legacy!...why!?

[RicoLaguna]

I know its odd, and I must be a nut with all the newer hockey games that recently came out since,....but i just find myself going back to NHL Legacy for some reason!

The players and animations are so smooth and realistic pace. Shooting, passing, checking, spacing between players and working the puck around the ice are just so well balanced and poportioned vs anything else that has came out since. Game is just all around solid for me.....thoughts? Whats the deal breaker with this version? Come on, theres always something

Nhl 14-Legacy certainly are good games that I enjoy from time to time (even though my personal favourite is NHL04 Rebuilt). They just feel like pretty complete games. Things I do not like is the cpu being too passive at times and (just like all EA's NHL games) the individual players feeling not different enough. All in all though it certainly is a good - maybe even very good - game!

Though I also think they feel so good because the ps4/ps5 versions of the series - at least offline - are so boring. The Ai offensively always just skates into the slot and shoots, be a pro is poorly made and there is not even a basic tournament mode where I can play with whatever teams ai want... So much potential wasted unfortunately.

Just curious what was nhl legacy and how did it differ from their yearly release? Did it have franchise mode?

I am so mad I do not have a ps3 anymore

It’s just NHL 14 with a roster update. They just called it legacy because NHL 15 was a way different game that year, also believe they only sold it for 20-30 bucks

For me it’s NHL Legacy (NHL 16!) not 14.

Probably because the modes are way deeper and the AI are objectively better at most aspects of the sport than their 8 year younger counterparts. Guess hockey bags and the Michigan didn’t make the game a better experience after all. Bummer, thought those two things alone were going to give us that complete experience we’ve all wanted.

If I'm not mistaken, it was in this version back the ability to create their own players and change the composition of teams.

Would love to go back and play it but then I need to buy an older system since i only have a ps5. Then I need to find the game for a decent price. So many obstacles
