Re: NHL 10 Video Preview (G4TV)
The inclusion of manual passing is one improvement, yes. But if it doesn't apply to the CPU, and if the CPU still carries the puck up the ice via tape-to-tape passes, then there's not too much to get excited about with that feature IMO. As for boardplay, we'll see. I have this feeling it's implemented in the same way Madden implements tackling: basically two players stuck together in a some preset animation, with no possibilty of seeing an actual physics and momentum-based scrum.
