I think we know the drill. Please DO NOT give impressions unless your status has been verified (posts will be deleted). Also, please DO NOT post a ton of questions unless those with the game explicitly state they are willing to answer questions.

I'm going to do the usual, guys. I'm going to fire the game up, explore EVERY menu option there is lol, and then start playing some Exhibition games and fiddle around with BAP and BAGM. I'll be back in a little while with some impressions and posts about anything I find that might interest guys here. In between all this happy gaming, I'm sure my inbox will still be abused and violated with requests

Firing up in a sec, got a few last PM's to run through.

Can we please not fill this up with millions of, for the most part, useless questions. It will make it easier of a read for everyone.

Please and Thank You!

I am making an additional sticky thread for questions, should the lucky ones choose to answer them.

One game down. So far, so great. Hitting has to get toned down a lot though. Slider guys will find a way.

Anyways, on to game two. FYI, I won't be doing any HUT impressions or online impressions. Strictly gameplay, presentation, graphics, BaP, BaGM.

Just gonna keep dropping in here as I come across things. Ill have a more fleshed out post with my impressions a little later. Quickly:

- arena intros, though better, are still way behind what 2K10 brought to the table.

- along with the hitting, seeing a few too many broken sticks. Probably amped up cuz its a new feature.

- love the little addition under the score overlay, showing information and stats about the game.

- played my second game as the Caps after using the Leafs and getting shutout. It was great to see Ovie be a force out on the ice. Definitely better seperation between top tier guys and average players, though it could still be better.

FYI, I'm playing on Allstar/Normal with tweaks to Penalties and Attribute Effect.
