Really hoping Savoie, that '13' moves us at least closer to actually seeing/feeling this. This would be a major "wow" for me.

As I've said a lot...I still really dig this game. But have to admit like many others have said...yep, the games in the BEAGM mode just kinda meld into another, and another, etc... Here's to hoping NHL '13' addresses this noticeably.

I musta watched this vid about 10 times. I'm not even a hockey fan, per se, although I do watch it here and there, but I just LOVE how the players look when skating. Seems like a "skate planting" tech implementation of sorts. Lol. Maybe they will give this tech to their football franchises...so they DON'T look like they're ice skating on the field. Heh.

I'm going to be that guy that says "meh" to it. The A.I. improvements will be nice, if they pan out, because I've chewed out my virtual players more often than not in how they play. But the one aspect I've wanted focused on was Be a GM. That mode has so many aspects that need improvement. I'm tired of the extremely limited number of years for stats that are retained. Scouting, the draft, etc. It needs so much love. I really hope the "GM Connected" stuff includes offline Be a GM improvements. Because I don't care AT ALL for online Be a GM stuff.

Because, even given the fact that they're updating last year's game, a year is still not an overly lengthy amount of time to make a game. It's certainly not a long amount of time to make multiple huge changes & make sure they actually work decently.

Plus, there's also the business end of things where they know that they have to sell another version 12 months later. If they give you everything you want this year, people will complain the next year when there aren't any more big changes.
