NHL 15 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions (Xbox One, PS4)

I actually saw the computer use poke checks in situations where they should. Of course they missed the puck, but that can be fixed with sliders. This was all from a livestream, so i haven't played it yet.

It begins... Let's try to keep it to impressions from those playing, limit the questions, and keep our collective cool.

Saw someone streaming it on twitch, and I must say I was pretty impressed with how it looked on default demo settings—which is usually a terrible indication of what the game is like. I think there is a good base here for me to tune my experience into a satisfying sim experience. Now I just need clarification on what is going on with Be a GM.

Played one game, it feels like NHL 14, a lot like it, Visually, STUNNING!!! This is next gen. As far as game play goes, there's some things that could be cleaned up, like the helmets on the ice zipping all over the place, CPU, still a bit aggressive, and can score right after you score (Just like NHL 15). I might not be able to play my usual 10 min periods because of this!! Controls are responsive, Like I said, it's similar to NHL 14, but so far so good!!

Doesn't look like there's any restriction on camera angles. Just tried true broadcast. Works.

I like it...and just like every NHL game I suck...can't even get 1 goal on Pro...lol

Would anyone be willing to comment on whether easy offensive zone entry is still in the game?

Gameplay= good
Graphics= great
Skill stick= garbage
Thought the skill stick was supposed to give us total control instead it gives you zero control. Can't even do a simple forehand backhand. Now this combined with one touch dekes the game controls you. Oh and for the guy who said he couldn't score a goal just slap shot from anywhere and you should get 3 or 4 per 2 min period.
