5. Game Covers
As is traditional with EA Sports, the NHL series boxes feature live
action photos instead of drawings. As it lacked the NHLPA license, the
early titles staged photos without real players. NHLPA Hockey 93, on
the other hand, had the rights to use player images, but not of the
teams.
On this cover, the main action photo features the New York Rangers'
Randy Moller checking the Philadelphia Flyers' Rod Brind'Amour while
Rangers goaltender Mike Richter makes a save (in this photo there is
the logo of the New York Rangers located on the bottom right of the
goaltender's pants). This photo is surrounded by eight small portraits
of players
6. Commentary
Live play-by-play commentary was introduced in NHL 97.
Jim Hughson, currently play-by-play man for CBC's Hockey
Night in Canada and also one of Canada's best-known
hockey announcers, provided the play-by-play for much of
the series.
The last games in which he is one of the announcers are
the PC and PS2 versions of NHL 09. Bill Clement was the
sole commentator in the Nintendo 64 version of NHL 99.
Gary Thorne provided the play-by-play commentary in all
Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions from NHL 07 through
NHL 14.
7. Soundtracks
NHL '99" was the first game in the series to feature fully
licensed music from David Bowie. Since then, each game
has had soundtracks of licensed music known as EA Sports.
Trax, with selections of punk, alternative, and rock music,
electronic music was later added to the mix in later games.
NHL 15 and NHL 16 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One use an
original orchestral score instead for the menus, while the
soundtrack continues playing in the arenas.
