Those saves were friggin insane. I love the new goalie AI

i think i want it now!!

wooo.. I love that stick deke with goalies biting and not magnetically catching up.. very cool. Sid the kid pulls that crazy stuff off.. glad to see you can now really use a star.. or regret having a star get injured !! Looks fantastic... but what is up with the blair witch style videos.. bleeehhhh

Anyways, I'm more pumped for the NHL season than I am either hockey game! But 2k is definitely looking great!

was that glove save from nabhakov a goal or not? the one guy starts to celebrate.. too bad you cant go to the booth to waive off goals or claim goal... that'd be cool.

No goal, he grabs it before it crosses the line.

To me the most impressive mment in that WHOLE video set was crosby getting the players to bit with the deke and gets a shot out of net on it, AMAZING AI. Not just SMART but also stupid when they should be.

also I noticed the first time he touches the puck he loses control for a moment when a player skates through his reach and he has to move the stick around the player. I would LOVE it if they actually had the colisions detection good enough that you no logner had sticks and players pass through one another.

oh boy. That is a good eye.. the stick looks like it glances off the player to move it around and regain possession for sure. notice all the other players and their stick movements never go through anyone... thats huge for stick control.. way impressive. Now you can truly play the man. and not the puck.

In the video "A pretty good player I'll say", it looks like the puck is in the wrong position on the stick when he turns around. Take a closer look. The puck looks like it's behind the stick instead of in front when he's moving forward in the middle of a turn. Something isn't right with either the graphics or the animations of that.

Is that some kind of glitch? Hope not.

The last one is not realistic. How do they put Emery making a diving save.:thumbsdow

Still it looks pretty good besides that.:thumbsup:

Looks to be that is Crosby just dribbling the puck. I wouldn't say wrong side because its side to side... nothing major...

I guess I'm so nitpicky about little things like that which is pretty stupid. Looks like a great game, I just wish the demo comes soon. :)

I can't afford to buy both 2k8 and 08, but i've been playing the 08 demo furiously and love it. The demo in itself is addicting.

I'll be playing both but only 1 will last the times. But, I feel 3 vs 3 might have the edge. Hey just outta curiousity, who has Microsofts NHL Rivals cause they had 3 vs 3 as well, back on original xbox. I coulda sworn 2K gotta hold of them, I may be wrong. Hopefully they did so we might see 3 vs 3 or even 5 vs 5 on NHL 2K?
