    I wouldn't be surprised if the old-guard was used for the PS3/360.
    It may be similar to when NHL07 was released where the two games were completely different depending on which generation of console you had.

    If this new engine, physics, commentary, etc can all run on the old generation then I fear NHL15 won't be as great as we want it to be.

      There is a lot of mention about crowd models and them acting in a more realistic way. That sounds great, but I hope they also put a lot into the sounds of the crowds - ohhs, ahhs on close plays, booooo's, chants, cheering, standing during clutch moments (like I see in MLB 14) and so forth.

        IF (meant as a big if) the physics are what they say they are, that will help. Another possible indirect improvement could come from uncompressed animations thanks to NG horsepower. It made a difference in games like Madden & FIFA, things were less awkward, twitchy, warpy... whatever you want to call it. Hopefully it helps the goalies seem more lifelike even before accounting for any other changes/improvements.

          Yes this true, it will look pretty but if it does not have substance it will be a big let down. I really hope they can up that part of the game.

            Crowds and presentation make me most excited. Can't wait for this.

              Wow, sounds and looks awesome.
              It's getting about the time for me to upgrade to next gen.

              The only drawback for me on this list... the new commentary team. I absolutely HATE Mike Emerick and Olczy. Oh well... It is what it is I guess.

                Anyone remember the great intro in NHL 11? Toews picks up the puck and goes one-on-one with Hiller. This was all computer generated and i remember thinking to myself this is what the next gen will be like. It was quite detailed with fabric physics on the jerseys in motion, the strides of momentum that Toews gained as each skate dug in the ice was so noticable. Before we see more, this is the closest thing to '15 so far.

                      features list sounds VERY promising to be honest, improved collision system, puck physics, improved player likeness, authentic areas, new commentary, nbc sports partnership, living crowds better AI cant.. all things that I would have wished for! the best fact sheet I have read in years. usually, no matter for which sports title, there are always plenty new back of the box features but I rarely care about any of those addtions to Ultimate Team modes and Online Franchises. this however, damn are all the right improvements for my taste!

                        i swear half of this feature list we have seen before...puck physics has been a "new" addition the past couple years

                        that being said, i am praying EA actually delivers on a game for once

                          I'll be reserving full judgement until we actually see things in action, but on paper this is enough for me to consider buying day 1 if it's all they're saying it is.

                          Nice to see (from the EA Sports NHL page) that they're putting the commentary & player collision physics into the old-gen and not leaving it as just a roster update... But having seen the full list of features, it's probably time I started to save funds for a next-gen console.

                            Sounds awesome might pick this up, haven't bought an nhl game since '12.

                              For the puck physics, I think the extra processing & GPU power may help fix the puck physics issues we've had to deal with in the past iterations of the game. I hope.
                              I'm assuming that the older consoles had a limit on just how much load they could handle and that may have limited how much "physics" EA could actually use in game. That is just a guess.

                              In truth, I'm not holding my breath since we've heard it all before.

                                This is my thought on it as well, along with AI. There's only so much you can do with 512megs of ram. 8 gigs on the other hand is alot more to play with.

                                EA won't have much excuse but to deliver in some form this time around given the hardware specs.
