IGN has posted their NHL 11 impressions.

Quote:


	"In order to combat all of this crazy checking action, the developers from EA's Vancouver studio have given players a new quick deke ability. The mechanics are extraordinarily easy. All you have to do is hold the left shoulder button and flick the right analog stick to the right or left and your guy will pull off a deke. Of course, as soon as I successfully pulled off my first deke, I tried to take a wrist shot and wound up snapping my stick. It was a little disgruntling, but it was still pretty damn cool. The final addition to NHL 11 to make its way into EA Sports' E3 demo was user-controlled celebrations. By using both the face buttons and triggers, players can access a large library of goal celebrations. The one I saw was essentially a guy sliding face-first down on the ice, hands outstretched. I was told there were plenty more to be had, but that's all I saw in my short demo at E3."

User Controled Goal celebrations has me completely turned off now.

If I ever saw a guy slide head first, superman style, as a celebration ... I would personally kick his teeth in.

The celebrations might be over-the-top, but it's a better alternative than seeing the same 5-6 celebrations over and over again.

Over-the-top celebrations have no place in a "sim" game IMO. Hopefully this type of "addition" didn't take time away from the attention the CPU AI drastically needs.

A welcome solution would be an option to skip the celebrations by pressing a button, or have a toggle in the settings that turns off custom celebrations.

Set to launch on SEPTEMBER 14th!? what the..

I can't believe people requested user controlled goal celebrations.

How is seeing the same 5 - 6 goal celebrations over and over again seen as an issue?

The things some people focus on.

Hopefully there's an option to turn off this gimmicky feature.
