Im realy, realy digging the demo so far, i think it plays a good game of hockey as is, so imagine when we get the sliders.
At first i was like WTF with the controls but im over that now and settled for pro stick evo basicly if your familiar with EA's game as i am it feels the most natural of them all. And not as easy to score.
Im kinda miffed about the controls as i was very fond of last years layout but just as last year you have to learn new ones same thing but different <!--emo&


They took out full stick control so get that out your systems now, again tho its sorta like EA's controls with a clunky poke check on d but it is very effective and i'd say better than EA's .
The stick handling very similar to EA not as exagerated tho side to side which i kinda like(no mad dekes with mike grier kinda thing) its serviceable for me.
The AI seems realy good so far and the cpu pens have scored some real nice goals against me, the standout being Malkin in the high high slot rolling of a hit and deking my keeper it realy was awsome looking as are most goals , not once have i thought " that was an iffy goal" the cpu burys its chances .
The animations on the hits and just player interactions is outstanding.
Im going on but id say its just like EA's game but with all the 2k gameplay cant wait to delve into the full game.
Not sure about the shooting yet it may be on auto or accuracy is down need more time to realy see if its going where i aim it.
This is looking to be a great single player game for me im realy psyched for it now but i will be getting it for 360 most likely.
It has rough edges but its all good for me so far. <!--IBF.ATTACHMENT_258704-->
