NHL15 Datsyuk doesn't look like real Datsyuk at all. Or how about Tavares? Oh dear Lord Stanley! I just don't understand how EA manages to **** up faces like that. And how on earth they have to make faces look cartoonish? (FIFA series anyone?)

Crowd and arenas look great. Faces, **** they are ugly.

Looks like Dats to me, but I also think Joe Thorton looked fairly spot on in the earlier shot that people picked apart.

I'll be hasty but put your heart at rest this game became the cinderella of EA sports game, IMO the trailer is the worst of all, features notes lacks in all part of game, instead seems to me on other games there are so much new improvement features, as for screenshots.
I do not want to be negative, for me the nhl 14 was not so bad, but the E3 it seems to me confirm my ruminations. Or on next-gen this game will not make a quantum leap as big as the others. And I understand now why last year the 14 was not already out on next-gen as others. Simply because it is the game where EA invests less. I am the first who hopes to be refuted .. but for now I am very skeptical.

SMH what is wrong with User Celebration. I want to be able to control how I celebrate. I know Hockey fans don't like celebrations in Hockey but damn they don't even want in Video Game.

Don't get me started on today's hockey culture.
All players must be robots. Nobody is allowed to have any interesting quotes.
The only time players can show emotion is when the game is out of hand. Then, and only then, can you show emotion by punching someone in the face or spearing someone's junk.
Then it's "That's good old Canadian hockey, right there, eh!".

But heaven forbid you celebrate a goal with more than a slight nod or fist-bump.
And heaven help you if you ever publicly declared how you'd like to score more than 40 goals.
I forgot that all players have to be 20goal, 60-point two-way players. Anything else, and you're not a 'team player'.

Everything I've read said it's actual commentary. At least the various outlets reporting on the trailer say one of the great things about the trailer is the new commentary.

That alone is going to make the game so refreshing since we have been listening to the same commentary for so many years.
