A Gold Demo (with updated Faststarts) will be released as soon as there is confirmation that the game has gone GOLD.
I'll be purchasing the Euro release from GameplayUK because judging by last year, the NA release could be up to a month later. Although, it did make its way over, mainly to EB Games.
The latest issue of the Hockey News has a feature on the game as it put it through its paces.
