I hear you. I was hoping that the demo wasn't accurate to what the final build would be in that regard.
It cuts too quickly to the crowd and opposing goalie.
Let me see the guys celebrate a little bit longer.

Ya I mean it's fine if they show the goalie skating (they did it last year at the tail end of the goal before the faceoff) and the crowd cheering, but do it after the teammates celebrate and go down the bench line. It's just a tad bit irritating. I guess custom celebrations aren't as big of a deal anymore to them after they added that feature last year. It looks like they almost took it out of the game.

I noticed one thing right off the bat, in the 2nd video. The Rangers Heritage jerseys are actually a little bit better this year. However, the blue needs to be WAY darker.

Re: NHL 12 Videos - Islanders vs. Rangers (CPU vs. CPU)

The thing that kills cpu v cpu mode (and I've always been a cpu v cpu player) is the lack of any fights in this mode. I've banged onto EA for the past few years without success....I love to play this way, I do for all of my games, but although the gameplay is pretty realistic the lack of fighting kills the authenticty and stats for me.

Hopefully EA can look into this and patch it up for NHL 12. Other than that the game plays pretty well in this mode.

Hmm.

So they can alter the vector logo to the Reebok wordmark on all the jersey backs but they can't be bothered to put the Isles 40th anniversary patch on the sleeve?

Sheesh, EA. Would it have been so hard? I'm pretty sure it's going to be worn on the road as well.

See the one thing I've never liked is that they don't pay attention to those little details that make the game that much better. One reason why The Show is good is because of all the little things. The patches on jerseys, the ballparks all look like there real life counter part, the faces of each player (not just the superstars). It's all of those things that make that game so great. If the NHL team did that, it would really make me look past some of the flaws on the gameplay side. That's what I do with The Show, although the gameplay is pretty darn good anyway. I just remember the last gen NHL's and how they would show a man proposing to his girlfriend, fans catching a puck, career milestone celebrations, etc. I want those little details back in the game. It just makes the game more exciting and fresh.

I apologize for moving this gameplay video thread into non-gameplay impressions.
