It looks great (except the green screen shots). Commentary is really lacking. Eddies "I saw that play a mile away" was cringe worthy and I got a feeling we're going to hear that line a lot. Refs still skate like they have bricks in their underwear and their hands are still stuck open. Like all sports games the players constantly bump into each other without acknowledging it. It just looks odd.

Doc didn't sound that hyped up but overall day one purchase. Gameplay and smoothness looks amazing

Commentary=yuk. Some guys have knack for sounding natural some don't. The previous duo had it nailed...this commentary is pretty bad IMO.

I think that's a first-year issue. The previous team had several years to record new lines. Hopefully it will get better from year to year.

Looks awesome! Not very impressed by the commentary though. I don't like Emrick at all really, his voice bothers me, but I do love the excitement he brings to a game, it just sounds so... off... in the game though. Like... its just weird and awkward sounding. All in all though, looks awesome. Still cant wait to play this..

I really, really liked the (hopefully) default speed of the game.
Not too fast, not too slow. Seemed to mirror the speed of a real NHL game.

Saw lots of great moves out there too. Loved Bjugstad's goal. Very, very nice.

Graphics and presentation, cool!

Commentary is what I expected.. So so!

Gameplay, sigh!

Same stuff is going to work etc. I'm tired of the over extending right stick deking etc. Just way over done and needs toned down. Been like that since what 07, so that's never changing.

Time for new eyes on this series Dev wise.

I want it NOW.. seriously.. game looks incredible and my neighbor is going to run out and get an xb1 after the first game we play against each other.

Presentation got a ton of love and it's about time!

The only thing I don't like so far is the soundtrack.. this is hockey where are the up tempo/rock songs?

Maybe in NHL 16 they get each home team's goal song into the game.

Honestly, I think the commentary sounds pretty good for a first year effort. I would like to see them improve his "goal" lines though. He should be exploding with excitement and right now its very bland.

Gameplay looked solid, very similar to years past but looks smooth as always. This year was clearly a focus on presentation which they have made huge strides in. I expect next year to see similar strides in gameplay, most specifically goalies, defense and AI

Yup.... I was afraid this would happen.

looks fantastic but not gonna lie, im very disappointed in the commentary

Well it's a first year effort. Go back and play nhl 07 and the commentary was sorta barebones. This year they changed the way the recorded lines and looks like they did spend a ton of one in the audio department. Wait a year or 2 and we will have some great commentating (even though it sounds okay to me thus far) But by then people will be saying I'm sick of these guys and want new announcers

[garyjr33]

Looks fantastic! Much needed improvements. So glad they didn't rush a game out on PS4 last year. Doc and Eddy are a much needed improvement. The new decking system seems smoother. Atmosphere and arena noise is much better.

The commentary still needs work, but OH MY GOD. All I have to say.

Re: NHL 15 Gameplay Videos Show Off All-New Camera Angles

Is it just me or do guys with the puck change direction too quickly? Seemed a little unrealistic.

Also, some of the passes are still ridiculous. That backhand pass by Dylan Olsen (?) in front of his net went about 70 mph right on the money.

Looked pretty good otherwise. Considering EA's past, I didn't expect a big jump. I played a **** ton of '14 despite its flaws. Probably more of the same this year.

I was looking sooo forward to Doc.

But he sounds robotic. No excitment in his calls. Commentary doesn't flow at all.

Extremely disappointed. (

They got some work to do in the commentary department. I agree with others too robotic, no flow and a little choppy. But still can wait for the demo to come will it have play by play?
