Im rooting for nhl 13 to surprise me but ive been waiting for them to take the next step since nhl 09. realm you remember we were both very happy with 09 but for me at least from 10 to 12 the series not only stagnated but acually took a step back and only focusing on features the casuals could enjoy.
I dont know if the devs arent capable of taking it to the next level for realistic hockey or its just a design decision.....but what 2k basketball and mlb the show and earlier 2k hockey games prove is that a sim minded game can appeal to the masses and sell.
look at pro evo soccer and fifa soccer.....both games have major followings and they try to achieve realistic soccer. after watching the nhl playoffs....i dont see that type of hockey at all in ea nhl.
with a sim minded game....an arcade game is a couple of slider tweaks away. an arcade minded game will never have a sim game even if you get the worst case of slideritis.
