So I did the create a new gamer profile to get the 1 month of gold free move, worked perfectly.
Gotta say that I'm really impressed with the tweaks in the gameplay. Pucks seems to bounce a bit more, passing is more refined without having to go all the way into the hardcore mode, and the goaltending is a little more realistic in terms of rebounds. The biggest change is the hitting, I love that you can bump guys to get position without it turning into a pre-determined animation. The players move a lot more realistically as well, nothing major but enough fine tuning to really make a difference.
I was always going to buy the game, but now I think I'll actually be happy to do so as opposed to bitching about it for months.
