Thank you for changing the load screens! In my mind I think it is solely because of me asking.

YES!! Playoff atmosphere!! Playoff decals on the ice , but no patches on the sweaters.

Players walking onto the ice much like 09 except now theres camera pans through the crowd as well, as it was a playoff game many of the crowd was waving towels and such. Also playoff logos on the ice. Then right at the drop of the puck he tries to get into a fight, thats where it cuts out. Very little actual footage. But what was there is looking great. The player models seem to be touched up a bit as well.

Yeah that does stink. I want that to be in too.

Also, hope they change the intro, been about the same for a while now. Get's dull.

Bring back the arena specific props, like the Sharks mouth, the Octopi, Oil Derrick, Flaming whatever it is etc. That made it interesting to watch and play in opposing teams venues. I miss that!

To me it looks the same as 09. I must admit I wanted a better face off animation this year.

First off I think alot of people are "expecting" and or "wanting" a bit much here, especially from very limited video. Judgement really needs to be reserved until we see ALOT more video and or play the game ourselves.

Based on what we have been shown and told, I agree that the game is similar to 09, but what is really so bad about that? I love the improvements I've heard of so far and I'm sure there will be plenty more that will make me even happier. Again though, until I actually play the game, I can't honestly judge it.
