[quote=“JaysGreenLX,post:22,topic:34653"”] PS3 or 360 doesn’t matter…I just don’t like the way EA is making their games. [/quote] So what your saying is that you rather have a more “arcady” feel than a realistic feel? I think the new game is great. When you are on a power play it actually feels like a power play, and vise vera on the PK. The AI is so much better as far as positions the player are at, IE on the power play. You can actually pass it around like in the real game. The animation transitions are a ton smoother this year and the players actually look like the real life ones. But the best part is the controls. Being able to deek someone not by an auto deek but a manual one is so much cooler IMO. ---

I don’t feel like I am even controlling the players. It looks all jerky and twitchy too. I just don’t like the whole stick control thing. That’s why I hate the game Skate too. ---
