i am not liking the demo at all. i dislike it so much i will actually probably not buy nhl 13.

i find it incredibly arcady. i find that the skating is terrible unpredictable. i find the game kind of lags and then the puck just goes zipping off in a direction. i find hitting to still be way too powered as everyone hits like kronwall. the ai is still stupid as they will skate 2 guys in the same spot or right where the human player is skating. i still get sucked into the in front of the net animation. when you play as goalie, its still boring and frustrating watching the AI play against itself. they still have no clue how to run an offense. i hate that i have to avoid skating in a straight line of else my guy will automatically go into the faster skating and lose the ability to do anything useful.
