WOW! A hockey MMO!? where everyone controls their own player on the ice. Im...speechless...

http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/897/897903p1.html

"Playing sports games online has always been the same deal: one-on-one, each player controls all of the players on their given team. EA Sports, specifically its Vancouver branch, is changing that classic paradigm by delivering what they're calling sports gaming's first Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) mode"

Another cool part is that you can change whatever team you're on providing a GM can convince you to do so.

"GMs will also be able to recruit players away using any negotiation tactics possible within the confines of a controller and a headset."

This game is now a must buy for me. Holy shit.
