NHL 15 Teaser Trailer and Features Revealed, Fall Release For Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3

Seems like everyone is jumping on the hype wagon!
How quickly we forget the previous game and its failings, now everyone thinks EA has somehow turned it around in one year. All I see here is NHL14.2, giving us better graphics and new commentary, both will not matter a hill of beans if the game balance remains uneven and the AI remain incompetent. Sure puck physics is a welcome addition, but after seeing the puck bouncing last year, do we really think they can deliver?

EA needs to prove that they can make a good hockey game, bullet points are not going to convince me and especially not after last years game.

It was absolutely a lock. Why wouldn't EA have planned one of their biggest sports releases annually to come out on the Next Gen consoles? To be the final sports game left to not be on Next Gen 6 months into it's life, and then to also not put it out the year after previous sports games already had their NG debut. C'mon now.

Not to mention this game has no doubt been in development for close to 2 years. Which obviously means they had plans for it before then.

Your video game judgement needs some touching up my man, lol.

It doesn't mean people have forgotten. Many people want something to be excited about. I'm in the same boat as you, but it's still ok to hop aboard the hype wagon and not buy the game if the some of the same issues haven't been touched. As of now it seems like this could be a much different game compared to current gen. It's an opportunity for them to restart and as a consumer be hopeful that they do it the right way. All in all I still haven't paid them 60 bucks so it doesn't hurt to be interested or hyped about what they've talked about so far.

Regardless there are going to be issues in the first version of Next Gen. That's just a given especially when they are redoing complicated parts like puck and hitting physics. If those issues aren't glaring (like the CPU dump into the corner) then it will be a step in the right direction. For me this is the first time in 4 years I'm at least intrigued by the NHL series, and that's saying a lot because I probably have too high of expectations.

So what are 360 people getting with the new game? New rosters??

i was expecting the game not to be next gen. im glad i was wrong about that!

as for the rest, umm, ok i guess.

finally adding things that have been requested and some of which were long over due by say 5 years.

hopefully, hopefully this game can make me put away 2k10 for a full year. we shall see! we all have been fooled by these guys before. wait and see approach from me.

Well I'm jealous of you next gen owners. Looks like you're in for a treat!

(Unless this goes the way of Madden)

My funds prohibit me from getting a next gen console anytime soon.
