They look really sweet.
Shi@ yeah we are!!! Anyways, did anyone see the vid someone made at 2khockey.net as far as annimations go. Someone took the vid and slowed it down. Showcased the annimations... It was really cool to see.. I just wish they would get new announcing. Hopefully we get someothing new today.

Here's the link. Check out those beautiful animations. VC did a wonderful job with this game. Can't wait to see on my T.V.

One thing though: the transition animations in 2K10 can be rough, and cause the player movement to look jumpy at times. Not near as bad as the MLB 2K series, but noticeable nevertheless. EA's game is more successful in that department IMO.
Yeah I agree. I do believe I saw some pinning in that video. Should please the one's who haven't seen any up until this point.

Anyway, from what I've seen and read (and I've tried to stay away from the level of ad nauseaum), this has the potential to keep that "organic" feel despite any glitches and quirks there might be. Looking forward to the online play, especially with the sim guys.
I'm partial to Abbott and Costello myself.

I'll be playing on line myself. I guess someone will have to show me what sim play is. Just one more week to go.

Hopefully more folks will rent the game, because it's really the only way to know how much it has improved. You mentioned Blockbuster, but Hollywood video always has more copies of games to rent, at least in Northern Virginia.
Sadly in Western New York, your options are Family Video or Blockbuster.

But yeah, I might be too quick to judge the commentary. I've heard snippets, so when I do rent the game, I'll get a better feel for it. And yes, I do believe that even though there isn't a demo, people need to rent the game to get a better feel. For franchise, for the creative purposes, and for the Whalers uniforms.

The thing is, seeing how I barley know anyone in my area to play the NHL 2k series, I'll be able to get 2k10 anytime for rental.

I'm glad your seeing some positives Realm. Looks like everyone will have some great choices in a little over a week.

I just really wish we had gotten a demo with unlocked sliders to be able to test things out for ourselves, because those videos leave alot of unanswered questions and some head shaking on design decisions. (that one handed puck handling for example is just flat out bad looking as is all the goalie puck suction) But like I've said if sliders really do work effectively this year it should at least play a solid game. I have a feeling I'm going to perfer NHL 10 but I'm at least going to give 2k a shot to impress like I do every year.
Yeah the one handed puck handling does look a bit odd and is overdone. One thing the demo would have provided is a much clearer view of what we are seeing. Most of the videos provided have been of very poor quality.
