Posted by Zonk on from the virtual-skates-real-fans dept.

Matt Clare writes "G4TechTV will play the regular NHL season via EA Sports NHL game. G4TechTV Canada subsriptions might get a bigger boost than when they picked up Leo Laport."

  1. Feedback to the NHLPA and the Owners by Plake · · Score: 4, Informative

    Well, the CBC is doing one on one interviews with Gary Bettman and Bob Goodenow about the lockout. So you can give them a piece of your mind.

    Well, if you think EA NHL sucks, don't even bother with ESPN NHL. What it wins with decent graphics and marginally improved AI, it loses by crashing. Often.
    And 100% reproducably. In the middle of franchise mode. There's one save game down the toilet. And that's out of the box. It apparently gets much more unstable if you are crazy enough to do things like tweak the in-game soundtrack settings.

    Oh, yeah, that and the fantasy teams like the '89 Calgary Flames lose much of their luster when their names get replaced with "C. Center" and "R. Defenseman"

  3. Leo on the radio by hai.uchida · · Score: 2, Informative
    For the few who don't know, Leo has an excellent radio show on KFI , which does stream live... It's on weekends from 12-3 PST. I believe he also archives the show on his own site.

    As much as I liked him on TV, I like the radio show better... Without the time constraints of a half hour show he can go much deeper into topics.
