Re: Hands On Preview From 2KHockey.Net
 
The AI looked pretty strong as well. I don’t remember having any issues with my defensemen not holding the line. My teammates always seemed to be in the right position for the open pass, and the opposing AI appeared pretty tenacious on both offense on defense, which is a huge factor for a good offline experience.
I’d almost given up on offline play vs. the computer the past several years due a lack of tenacity by the CPU AI, but what I saw—albeit very little—looked quite promising.

Sweet!

WOW baa, did you just say that? You are hard on the player models if I remember so you must be really impressed.

Guys, just wanted to say that I missed something very important at the end of that preview and that was the special thanks and heads up about some exclusive gameplay footage on the way.

Savoie,
I have been very critical about 2k and the info they released.. Now this preview is what I am talking about...It was a very good read and the pics are outstanding. But I couldn't help but notice you said there will be exclusive videos :) When will they release?? Any word on the street!! LOL

If 2K10 has a true broadcast cam ( fixed at center ice with a swival and zoom when players cross the blue line in the offensive zone) Why is this so hard for the developers ? I think I may go back to 2K .Only if the game plays a true hockey sim of course.

2k9 had the closest to real life broadcast camera angle. One of the few brightspots of 2k9 :)

Its a shame the commentary is going to drag the overall presentation down for me, I hope next year they actually make the effort to write a better play by play script and have Hahn and Remenda show a little more passion and less "reading lines" emotion. Otherwise though I have to give them credit for not only the arena's looking stunning but making an effort to get the lighting of various arenas down. Thats a really nice touch, hope the game plays as decent as it looks.

Not only that but the specific intros...

Man...I really hope, for their own good, that they release a demo.

I've been a 2k guy for most of the new millenium...so anything is possible. :cool:
