Finally got around to hooking my xbox up to the network and giving the demo a spin. Coming from NHL 11 it's a big but welcome change, definitely buying it on release day. I don't mind the new skating mechanism at all really, it does seem more natural... but I do miss the crushing arcade style hits. Yes I want realistic skating & arcade hits.
Really looking forward to requesting a trade in Be A Pro Mode, it'll suit my habit of crushing the competition for a month or so before getting bored and being able to see what my value is then instead of the end of the season when I've simed through a bunch.
