When you line someone up from 20 feet out and you just barely bump the other guy. I really hate it in Club matches, you could be 6'2 210lbs and just take a run at 5'8 170lbs guy and just barely nudge him and the little **** goes on to score.

"Every hit in NHL 11 is gonna be a new hit because it's not animation based, it's physics based"

"If you just clip a guys leg, he might trip on one leg, if you hit him low he's gonna go over you, if you hit him into the boards from ten feet away he's gonna go into the boards hard and actually use physics against the boards, not animations."


Quote:
It's all about these moments that happen in a sports game that you didn't expect, these crazy moments happen and hockey where you say "I can't believe I just saw that" and we wanna get to that point where anything can happen, we're not scripting anything, we just supply this tools/physics and then people go out and play.


- They have a Russian PHd in physics helping them with the physics engine

- Their focus with the physics was with the players and the boards. With "some new puck stuff" and "some new faceoff stuff".

- It's a 3 year plan to get the game entirely physics based

Regarding Broken Sticks

Quote:
People have to understand, we're not just putting broken sticks in there as a gimmick . . . the two pieces of the stick are on the ice and stay there, it can interrupt a pass . . . it could end up causing a breakaway . . . you can kick the puck up the ice . . . you can play defense without a stick . . . you can hand your stick to a defender if you're a forward


Regarding CHL

Quote:
All 120 jerseys are available for the EASHL


Other Information
- One new mode that they can't talk about yet, but "[Dave Littman] can let you know in a few weeks", that is "significantly new and different for NHL"

-They are "looking into" adding NCAA to the game but "there's been no agreement"

-Faceoffs is something that every hardcore guy has been p***ed off at us for, for not improving. [NHL 11] has a brand new system where you can do "almost anything off the faceoff that you see in real life, and you can even change hands on your way into the faceoff to be stronger on the backhand."

-I just wanna tease you with. . . "we did NHL arcade and someone else in EA Sports follows it with there sport . . . there are some really cool modes that EA Sports has done in the past year or so that we are sharing"

On the ice, you don't wanna go back to '10 when you play '11

Our hardcore fans are tough on us and I'm glad they are because it makes us strive to be better

Interview recap from 1up.com

Can't wait for a forward to give me their stick and then I immediately take a stupid tripping penalty. =p

Posting this here since it would be pointless to create a thread about ModNation Racers since no one else here bought it, most likely. A friend created a Kings jersey for me to wear in the game. I haven't even tried creating since I haven't unlocked everything.

He did a pretty good job given the tools that were available to him. He says it looks even better in game. This is his character, not mine:
