I'm starting to think Jatt, that this announcement thing has been hanging in midair for so long...that almost anything maybe a letdown. Unless, it truly is something HUGE!!!

Agreed. Hoping the announcement is something really amazing, but we will see. It's getting a bit over-hyped.

It's not, the big news is probably relating to online communities or something. If you look at the official site, that's the only section that is still 100% blank.

I think there's still a few pleasant surprises ahead (ability to see scoreboard in dressing room, etc), I just hope they aren't over-hyping this one.

My obscure guess is going to be 1st person view, where you see your hockey stick and the puck but not your player. That could be cool if done perfectly.

I was told that this is in but it's not the big announcement. The same thing goes for online communities.

The big annoucement is, the demo is a gonna be a beta of the full game that we will be able to try out for free for a month until release to discover bugs and glitches and such. This way the team can better prepare for release with a patch and or tuner.

I like having some legend players in the game. This has been something I've wanted for years now (it was nice to play Madden NFL back in the day and unlock players like Otto Graham, Barry Sanders, etc.)

Hopefully, it's not the big announcement, but hey, it's still pretty frickin' cool.

Now, that would be something. That way, we could take pictures and videos of everything not working and they could take a look at everything not working.

Then, they would put a patch, 2-3 tuner, and call it NHL 13 for most of what isn't working...

LOL...yea that's a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT that would benefit the EA developers. We as the paying customers will give the job for free in discovering the bugs etc instead of them paying almost-non-existing QC people.

Its a big disappointment for me that upon the release, EA has no clue regarding the glitches and bugs. But hey...the benefit that I can think of if this is the BIG Announcement - at least we can now decide if we're going to buy the '12 or just passon and wait for '13.
