I agree with this 100%. Can't express how impressed I am with this team and how far this game has come in 4 short years, like bad_philantropy mentioned.

Now if they could only reverse their ill-advised decision on the stupid attribute-boosting equipment for the EASHL...

Truth.

Everything looks and sounds so good for this years game. I can't wait to give the hardcore style a try.

The one thing that caught my attention was how you increase the speed of your pass..."by holding down longer on the right trigger to power up your pass." I don't know if it would make any difference...but I was kinda hoping the speed would be determined by how far in you pulled the trigger. But anyway...I'm sure it'll be fine.

Ahhh...Christmas in September!

I don't really have a problem with the attribute-boosting equipment. It's all a matter of the way it's implemented. I'll reserve judgment until I experience it.
