NHL 16 E3 Hands-On Impressions (Quick Look)

[froghair]

Nice info, fellas. Any idea (or your thoughts) on whether last change will be incorporated on faceoffs? I feel like the last change and getting match-ups is a major part of hockey and should be a given in any serious attempt at a simulation of the game.

I'm amazed there aren't more hands-on impressions from those that attended E3.
Even on HFBoards there's barely any mention of it.

Is this series even relevant anymore?

I tweeted Matt Bertz just now asked if he'd be willing to share his NHL 16 impressions with us here at OS.

His immediate response:

We’ll be posting a conversation between the three editors who played the game later this week on the GI site!

So there's something...

Rather just have some gameplay videos instead of producers talking.

Not having any gameplay footage is one thing, and it sucks, but not having any answers to specific questions is worse.

It is like there is a complete vacuum surrounding information with this franchise. And it hasn't been a good thing with its recent track history.

Im hoping they can improve on this game. I havent bought a hockey game in years and hopefully EA can show me enough to get this game.
