NHL 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (360, PS3)

[ManUtd]

I like the new realism in NHL 11 - but perhaps it is a sliders adjustment thing but I find it a little 'clunky' if I can use that term.

We'll see how it works out when the game releases in September...

Initial impression - I'm taking a wait and see approach.

Wow nice goal but the play was offside!

Well, I'm a little late to the party but I'm loading up the demo right now. I don't come into this forum hardly at all, even though I love hockey(more of a college/HS fan myself)
The things I'm seeing about this game really have me intrigued. I haven't actually played a hockey game since NHL 2k8 and the last EA hockey installment I played was NHL 2004!

From what I can tell so far, 11 is legit. Very excited to see what the retail has to offer.

Make sure you go through the tutorials. Hate to see you be turned off by the game, due to a pretty steep learning curve.

That was the first thing I did, actually! The game would need more than a steep learning curve to turn me off, though, as I enjoy the challenge of learning a new game.
So far, I like the demo a lot. Don't have a whole lot to say right now, just that it's fun and I definitely want to see what the retail version will have to offer.
