Re: NHL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here (360)

I feel bad for my copies of Madden and NCAA.. this game is going to be a classic.. and get most of my free playing time.

Even on pro default the game has grown leaps and bounds imho.. I loved 2k's board play, but EA nailed it and it flows so nicely. Game is definitely "organic" and the atmosphere is really intense. Camera seems a bit closer to the ice and I love that.

Goalies have a bunch of new animations and I actually like the fighting.

This game can't come soon enough!!!

Hey now don't steal my phrase. Herky Jerky is my word. I made that up, not you.

C'mon Scott.. 2k9's celebrations were non-existent.. sometimes players even celebrating by themselves.

You are the Eddie of EA. Any way I love playing as be a pro. I love the blue arrows telling my dumb *** where to go. I just want to score goals. That is fun! But the Kings. I am not happy about that.

I disagree, but let just not go there.

Another thing that could use some improvement are the checking animations. I figured out how to do that pretty quickly but I have yet to see someone get laid out when it was appropriate. They collide but there is very little affect to the way the body reacts it seems.

LOL, so true. We really have a lot in common.

One thing I will say for sure is that this game is definitely challenging for me. I'm going on a few hours and the only goal I scored was an empty netter. I'm still playing though so there must be something I like.

True. This is a going to be a beast of a game. Can't wait. But I hope I get drafted by the Sharks. Board play is sweet in this game. I love that.
