NHL 11 First Trailer
Breaking sticks? What? There had better be a slider in the options menu to turn that shit off! It's annoying enough in real life and I don't want it in the game. The rest of what I see in this glimpse looks pretty sweet though, gotta say.
Puck Daddy's Sean Leahy had a post up a couple days ago showing a leaked photo of the cover...who's on it? Not Henrik Sedin. No it's Jonathan Toews.
Release Date: September 14.

Well, they should give you the option of playing with wood, so you don’t have your stick breaking all the time.
Frankly, stick manufacturers should be friggin embarassed that their sticks breaking all the time are a key part of the new release of NHL11.
Imagine if a golfer’s club/iron broke every 30 shots, or roughly 3 or 4 times during a 18-hole course.

Players can switch back to the wood sticks if they like. But most don’t. So that says something, don’t it?

exactly. they go for the shot advantage and the quality is shit. It’s like buying a new Corolla today compared to the late 70’s-early 80’s version.

I actually prefer wood
over composite.

They’ve had different cover athletes for the Swedish version of the game in three of the last four seasons (Lundqvist for 07, Alfie for 09, and Backstrom for 10). Although it probably doesn’t get the press and prestige that they get in North America, I think it’ll suit the Sedins fine as they are pretty humble and laid back guys.

Did I hear correctly that this edition of the game will be available for Wii?

Yeah, NHL Slapshot. But it’s not exactly FIFA Street or NBA Jam style.

Kinda bummed
Sony didn’t show a preview of NHL 11 during their E3 keynote.
But if this game’s 3D capable like their other new upcoming releases, Imma go apeschit.

Imma blow me some people up and laugh like a psycho clown....
As for Toews on the cover, is the whole bloody team going to get their own? I can deal with
Toews, as he’s Canadian, but if they put Buff on there, I’m done.

I find that highly unlikely, thank god.
I can’t wait to play GT5 in 3D. Ohmygosh, I had nerdgasms the entire keynote.

YES!
If you get to see the GT5 preview from E3, you’ll go nuts. The gameplay to real life footage was so seamless, it’s not even funny.

So why the HUGE holdup then? What were the problems?
by Sean Zandberg on Jun 17, 2010 5:43 PM PDT up reply actions
Not problems, from what I've heard.
Just trying to load this thing to the brim. Damage modeling, exact detailing of outside, inside and underneath the cars, adding 3D.
One of the main designers even raced the 24hr Numburgring (sp?) to make it perfect.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m as pissed as anyone it’s been delayed this long, but I have faith it will be worth it.

Hell yeah it will be worth it! I believe that too

REAL TIME PHYSICS!!!11!!!!!1!
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
you can
break your stick, give your stick to a guy without a stick, and play the puck without a stick
does that make the game more fun or more annoying?
for example
is the “give stick away” the same button as pass or something so you accidentally give your stick away or did they give it its own button?
Do players’ sticks break so often that it needs its own button?
I there are enough free buttons to accommodate a “give player your stick” button. And I’d assume it would only work if a player actually didn’t have a stick, and only if you were right up next him. So unless you like passing when right next to a guy without a stick you’d probably not have to worry.
At least that’s what I assume.

RDS reports that Halak has been traded to the Blues. Puck Daddy has already found another source that confirms it.

So...
…wonder what this means Montreal is doing? Keep Price, get a guy like rayzor and go two goalies? Move price and bring in…someone? Management in habsville knows something the Blues don’t (ie: Halak is going to ask for 9 mil a year and get it from the KHL)? Management in habsville is just stoned and stupid and will get a guy like rayzor and run with 2 goalies?

Mirtle just tweeted that the Habs were really after Eller, who was the Blues 2nd-best prospect.

EA does a bang up job with their NHL series
Too bad they routinely drop the ball with all of their other franchises. I’m definitely looking forward to NHL 11. I imagine a hilarious scenario where every man on ice’s stick has been broken and they’re all skating around, kicking the puck back and forth.
ha, or, to toot my own horn, they could use what they should have used last year:
by Sean Zandberg on Jun 17, 2010 4:29 PM PDT up reply actions
Hahaha
And it of course includes a Be-a-rioter mode where you can either a ‘fan’ from Montreal and go around looting, or a fan from Philly and slash car tires!
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
I think if ya combine NHL 11 with Grand Theft auto you’d have a perfect game. You could chase the refs down after you lose (and they fuck you over) and blow up their car…etc etc
go find a hooker….etc etc
Beat up a cabbie
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
Which reminds me
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
haha, he kicks the cabbie to death in the ankle and the guy bleeds from his upper body.

I think any pro athlete making multimillions pretty much has to give something back, or else you’re a total classless zero.
