I have to say, those pics look really nice.

If the gameplay is nice, I can see me owning all 3 games this year. Bye-bye funds!

That's correct. I love NHL Slapshot's look and controls as well as the Pee-wee to Pro.
But 2K11 has some offerings I'm very interested as well.

And of course, I'll have NHL11 for my next-gen fix.
I better finish Red Dead Redemption before September rolls around.

I'm considering getting all three as well

While the SS does look impressive i am curious why the stands are empty and the biggest question is how can the hockey team at 2k manage to capture and render Fenway Stadium far better then that of the actual 2k baseball game?? I find that quite amusing.

both winter classic stadiums were ported over from the wii baseball game..

thats why ralph wilson stadium is now out.

Awesomeness.

I'm just happy we finally had the sense to make give it its own menu option this year. It was always kind of hidden before in the quick game settings menu. Now it's essentially two button presses right off the main screen to play the Winter Classic, with the correct teams and uniforms. So yeah, hopefully there is some Philly/Boston fans who will appreciate it.

Not sure you can say this Shadow, but are all the previous Winter Classic jersey's in the game? Could I recreate the Buf-Pit or Det-Chi games?

This is the most accurate statement i've seen in a while. Rather funny isn't it.
