I'm thinking the jitter with regards to some of the things is because it is a demo, and everything might have been compressed to again, keep the file size smaller... all speculation though

Why would you switch from PS3 to XB1?

I assume it'd be linked to your EA account.

i think you may be out of luck...

Bonus is granted based on a user maintaining the same user account (Gamertag or PSN ID). This means that if you transition from a gen 3 console to gen 4, and have the same user account, you are still eligible for the bonus.
Unless, gamertags/profiles are console agnostic (which i doubt they would be) i don't think you'll be able to leverage your hut history from your previous console.

By that logic, people who's friends are oilers fans should get lobotomies.

Without doubt this is way more upsetting to me than the lack of EASHL. My contact embarrassment was off the charts.

I like the way the game feels right now (though scoring is way to easy), but you can't see a huge graphical jump from the overhead camera.

The framerate drops to like 2-3 FPS whenever a graphical transition happens, too. I hope it isn't like that in the main game.

It's been said earlier, but I think the tuners are set to make it easy because of the 2 minute periods. I expect they'll be readjusted for the full game.

That Bergeron video is terrible. Wow.

Almost makes me not want the game now

Nahh, I'll still get it. Brutal video though

i think that bergeron video shows just how different the budgets are between the other ea franchises.

compare the stupid nhl pre-release promo videos to that madden commercial that went out just before its launch.

good thing the demo has been generally well received, or i think ea would have been ridiculed quite a bit for that.

On my Ps4 when I first tried the demo the game was as you describe. When I tried it the next day it was much better. My thoughts are pretty much the same on the game that it is nice to have lots of the things they added presentation wise but cutting out a major game mode I don't believe is worth it.

I guess I'm getting the ps3 version, the real question is whether they fixed the menus and made it so that every game in EASHL actually gives you credit and doesn't base it on whether or not other people quit. Play 2.5 periods, goalie quits with 5 minutes left, no credit. That's whack. My faith in them fixing it is about none.
