No Demo for NHL 2K10

The one thing that is weak some times before the face off the players go through the ref or other players, not durning gameplay, so that is cool. I love the faceoffs and how you can tie a player. It just looks so real. Man, I want this game NOW! lol Next week will go fast for me. I only work 3 days next wek, so that is cool.

Very good point on the numbers...the size was off the past few years, but they fixed it in 2k10 and the jerseys look good. I can't say enough how much they have improved this game visually over 2k9.

I like the detail, but something is missing. I think the shoudlers don't have the right font size. At least on that Joe pic they have the Shark smaller. In the pic that I put up with the real joe it looks better. In fact I think EA is pretty spot on.

Great observations. This game definitely looks authentic, I'm looking forward to having this in my hands in a week or so. The animations have always been top notch IMO but they looked to have improved a lot this year.

Two sucks in one post... that I haven't seen for some time. Anyway, I thought Live sucked compared to NBA 2K. And I know FIFA doesn't suck, so good advice there. Last but not least I just beat your record.

The shoulder padding is too small is what looks off. It almost looks like the players don't have padding at all under their jersey. Minor nitpick in the end though.

I think that is it too, but I think they are too narrow. What I mean is they have nice wide shoulder, but they don't have enough weight on them. Oh OK I think that is what you are saying. It late I am so tired!
