When you take a look at the sport of hockey, skating is a huge fundamental of the sport. EA has taken that to heart and has worked on their engine to simulate the skating more effectively. They have provided two different videos where they talk about top-speed, momentum, and how speed versus control plays a part in it. If you are a fan of hockey and the video games, then you should take a look at these to see how EA is looking to bring the sport of hockey to the top of their game. It looks like they have done their due diligence to get the skating to feel more dynamic.
While not working as a Database Administrator, Keith Schleicher has been associated with Gaming Trend since 2003. While his love of video games started with the Telestar Alpha (a pong console with four different games), he trule started playing video games when he received the ill-fated TI-99/4A. While the Speech Synthesizer seemed to be the height of gaming, eventually a 286 AT computer running at 8/12 Hz and a CGA monitor would be his outlet for a while. Eventually he’d graduate to 386, 486, Pentium, and Athlon systems, building some of those systems while doing some hardware reviews and attending Comdex. With the release of the Dreamcast that started his conversion to the console world. Since then he has acquired an NES, SNES, PS2, PS3, PSP, GBA-SP, DS, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One S, Gamecube, Wii, Switch, and Oculus Quest 2. While not playing video games he enjoys bowling, reading, playing board games, listening to music, and watching movies and TV. He originally hails from Wisconsin but is now living in Michigan with his wife and sons.
