I'm not so sure that's actual gameplay.
2K producer WWTC stated on 2khockey.net that this was a scripted trailer.
So I'm not so sure how much actual gameplay is in this video.

I noticed that too. It's as if someone was controlling him and forcing him out of the play so that Ovie's special goal could develop.

Realm, why not wait it out dude and play the game before thinking it's going to be like 2K9? Heck at least wait for the demo. Are you just trying to convince yourself you don't want the game or trying kill anyone elses optimism?

It is so comical how people fly off the handle after a video like this which essentially tells us nothing about the game. Until we see a long gameplay video to judge the AI, there's not much point arguing about what might be good or bad about a game.

I personally can't wait to see what VC does with the game after having a full year.

Oh baa, what are we going to do with you. You honestly think that we won't see actual gameplay before release?

I never get why people go out of their way to blast 2k hockey. If 2k hockey goes away, EA hockey will never see any more improvements. Sports games with no competition are usually mediocre... at best.

I haven't bought a baseball game in many years, and I stay clear of football now as well.

Of course people shouldn't support 2k hockey just "because", but maybe people could give it a fair shot, as they could significantly improve this year.

EA has a history of not improving without competition (see madden the last 4 years). I don't agree about baseball, I love the choices we have now and never thought MVP was that good. But you make a great point.

That might be true. I like what they did with the trailer and they explained how that goal WOULD NOT be the norm. I for one like how they promo their games. I like the fact that they wait closer to the release date to put out videos etc. I hope they keep it that way. EA markets 2 months ahead and very well but most of the time their games are mediocre IMHO.

LOL, that is so true. I didn't think of that. Proves we are living in good times now when it comes to video games. Between OS and all of the gaming sites IGN, etc. we get all the info we need and more.

Alot of people really liked the last MVP, what that even has to do with 2k's downright craptastic marketing I don't know.

Realm, one day your cool, the next day your tearing 2k hockey a new one. So hard to figure you out. I agree this year madden is looking really good and I will be purchasing day one. I remember MVP's popularity, it just never did anything for me.

thats actually not true in this case. 2k hockey in no way right now competes with EA, yet they still keep pushing the bar up. 2k used to compete, but now the franchise has become a gimmicky joke compared to what it used to be.

Also, you want to know why people bash 2k. It's because a lot of us were loyal 2k buyers until the franchise decided to turn its back on the fanbase and what made it popular in the first place. Instead the company went for the "party mode" atmosphere and failed miserably.

I disagree. I think last year was a major step up from the previous versions. I don't really see what a lot of you saw from 2k3 to 2k6. It may have been more sim but the game had no personality, no atmosphere, nothing to draw you in. It was quite boring to say the least. It's funny EA went bye bye for about 3 years putting out some horrendous hockey games a few years ago and now all is forgiven. VC just took over last year and is doing a nice job to turn the series around but there is no patience, no wait and see approach. Oh well at least there is something for everyone.

Nothing will get them back because IMHO I don't think they want to like the game. I'm far from an EA fan, but I don't go to that forum, ripping and bashing at any and all info about that game. There is an agenda here folks and that's all there is to it.

Well then I say since you have finally found nirvana in EA hockey, why not give up on 2k hockey once and for all. Some of you have been here for 3 years, 3 YEARS, bashing and rehashing away the same old thing. When will you realize that this game just isn't for you. I'm not saying that to bash anyone but it's obviously true. I can't imagine spending 3 years in a forum for a game that you hate so much (2k hockey) when there is another game that you like so much(EA hockey). Give up this maddening Idea of "I want it to be good". Most of you wouldn't buy two games anyway. If EA hockey is the end all be all of hockey then why would anything that 2k does matter to you. I like 2k baseball and I have made about 10 comments this year in the show forums. I guess it's a mature of maturity.

Bravo Scott. Dare I say we might have some stalkers among us. I'm joking of course, but as I said, it's all a matter of maturity my friend.

Yeah that was nice. It looks like VC has added so many little things to make this game more authentic and dare I say it FUN! I have always wanted the whole package, the "if it's in the game, it's in the game" thing. I think VC is striving to bring that to 2k hockey much like they do with NBA 2K and NFL 2K5 before that.

# 60 Eddie1967 @ 07/31/09 08:39 PM

The animations in the trailer are superb. I never worry about that because 2k does the animations very well. I read something about them improving the collision detection, but as I remember 2k9 did a job with this. I remember trying to lay a hit and missing the CPU and blasting my teammate. Everything came together perfectly. Imagine them improving on something done so well.
