This game looks, sounds, and plays awesome... just too bad they removed a lot of the modes in the next gen version of last years and even the old gen...

A couple of clips in this video, my first goal, a fight ending, check out the fan when Florida gets put into the penalty box, crowds are awesome and very personal, then another fight and then a funny bug, Florida went to change lines my guy got his leg stuck in the door, he still played till Florida changed lines again and opened the door freeing him. wink

Great stuff Magnum! This game was what I was most looking forward to out of the next gen sports games.

I have a question: At the end of the game…can you go to the box score and check out highlights that were stored for the whole game like in NHL14? I can live without most of the missing modes but one of my fave things to do at the end of the game was scroll through the hilights and check out some of the big hits, goals…etc.


I hope they didn't strip that out.

Some notes:
-Animation Transitions are HORRIBLE in many situations (from pre-celebration to post),
-Skating engine animations are still messed up, Players dont skate into the walls like that at all, there should be a proximity animation so when players skate directly to the wall about 3 feet out they automatically turn or hit the brakes. They still skate into the wall/glass face first like it's still Nintendo Hockey..
-AI, Stupid as ever.
-Officials Skate where they shouldn't, get in the way, and look out of place.
-"Physics" engine is still a fake gimmick, the puck motion is far from realistic, as is objects on the ice, during fights the objects don't interact with the player, you can skate through, pass through, and shoot through objects on the ice as well as sticks through other players while shooting/passing. Players still move as if they are on a magnet board and being pulled by a magnet, they rotate 90 degrees while doing a forward skating animation, they skate into each other and sometimes through each other.

probably good that I've never been on ice or held a hockey stick then, because to me the basics of gameplay are great.
