The things you're calling flaws actually don't even look that bad, I can't even really tell if the fans are doing a towel wave animation or just fist pumping. That we have active crowds finally I think is great. The save animation we can't even SEE if the shot was batted or if its just a missed puck all together. As for the shot sure maybe that could use some more tweaking. Its May, the game comes out in September. To nitpic the first look at the game and focus only on what you percieve as negative seems pretty trollish to me personally.

I have no doubt that this will be a great game, but from what we've seen so far, this will be for the most part, a second major patch to NHL 08 (NHL 09 being the first one).

Unless there's some big reveals at E3, this will be (NHL 08.5).5

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Very true.

Although no game will ever be perfect...but heck, I'm still enjoying '08'.

quite frankly, that logic shouldn't be applied to a game that comes out yearly with a $60 price tag. NHL 09 was a great game but IMO was definitely not a $60 upgrade from NHL 08.

I take it you don't play online. EASHL = Huge Upgrade.

Yeah, I'm not really a big online gamer. Everyone is excited over the Madden online leagues, but I really don't have the time to devote to that. Same with this. I'm mostly just looking for offline improvements.

I've said before that a really well done goalie mode could be one of the best features in any sports game, but so far it's been done pretty badly, almost an afterthought.

the bad news: the crowd just looks plain stupid, even though they ARE waving towels.


the good news: it looks like there might just be a NEW stanley cup victory movie!! Which is awesome, because that's so much fun to watch!!
