QB can't tell you when the embargos lift because there is an embargo on that information

And there is an embargo on the embargo to the embargo as well. Or they just didn't tell us yet. You pick.

*sigh* i'm so NHL overloaded hahah

the OXM the screenshots all tell you a LOT about the game without TELLING you... read into them what you want. But I checked this morning we are still lips sealed and everything about the DETAILS. can only confirm...

new physics engine
new faceoff mechanism
new deking
CHL inclusion

but how or WHAT or when..... can't say

Hopefully physics includes hitting, checking, puck "physics" and goalie play. If it makes all those things considerably better this will be absolutely unbelievable...

That stuff sounds amazing but are there more gameplay improvements than that? If there are I will be blown away. Just those improvements will make the gameplay so much better.

This is my hope as well.

I agree Ch46647, if this new physic engine covers all of what you've mentioned, NHL'11' should be unreal good. I just wish we'd get a blog about the new engine. Now that the cat is outta the bag.

Of course there is. That was only the first bit of info to come out so far. They aren't going to reveal everything they've done in 1 magazine interview.

BTW, this game is going to be effing epic.
