NHL 11 Video: Realtime Physics

[Lightbringer719]

Good hit there, I'm sick of seeing players doing random spins after getting hit.

this would be so sick on NCAA or Madden

Sopel kinda morphed out of the way after the hit and snapped back into skating position


EDIT: Neermind it looked alot better watching it a second time

Because EA Canada doesn't make Madden. They do however make Fifa, and NHL series.

And Live/Elite might I add not that I'm even vaguely interested in basketball. I thought it looked really good. Looks fairly natural and not animation based at all, pretty excited to see how lively the game looks and feels this year. I know its hype and all but I have a feeling that the "Anything can be a wow moment" may actually pan out to be fairly true for NHL11.

To me Qb..this is one of the best things you could say about the coming game.

I'm trying like heck to finish my third season of GM mode before the demo comes out. Because of this very thing. Normally it's kinda tough to keep playing last years game, once you've tasted the demo of the new game.

I don't want to wish my summer away...but dang, I can't hardly wait till 9/7.

Agreed, I'm trying to finish my second Bruins season, drew the Thrashers in the first round, but its harder and harder to play knowing how much better 11 is going to be. Not to mention I'll be moving this week and may be off line for a bit (sure that may make a few happy heh)

Very optimistic about the game this year, it seems like its going to be a major improvement year rather than incremental additions that 08/09/10 felt like. That to me is a very exciting thing right there.
