I agree. I love the lighting this year. I like how different stadiums have different field textures.

Almost forgot. For those worried about the D lineman physiques, the Raiders have some hippos on the d line.

Re: New Vids on IGN 5/30
 

OK I have some problems with these videos. Some that probably has nothing to do with it being Pre-beta. First off they are all "Madden Moments", meaning they are chances to replay parts of games from last year, BUT they are using the current rosters. That takes away so much authenticity from these "Moments." It should be Favre leading the Packers not Aaron Rodgers, and Ronnie Brown shouldn't even be on the field for Miami, for the Panthers the screen shows a big picture of David Carr because he actually led the winning drive in that game, but you play with Delhomme. Thats BS, very poorly done if it isn't changed by release. Also there is NO excitement whatsoever by the announcers or players after the game winning TD's/FG. Its so sad, I know its never been in these games but there really isn't any reason to not include some damn emotion and excitement when a team wins on a TD/FG. Again takes away from the authenticity of the moment. Both need to be fixed, but I believe neither will.

Re: New Vids on IGN 5/30
 

Are there any vids of gameplay with the new action camera?

Re: New Vids on IGN 5/30
 

If I know a developer or even Ian himself will read it, of course I'd write up a list of things that should be fixed from the 08 version of the game.
But with so many threads addressed to Ian, I can't be certain it'll be read and might just end up becoming a huge waste of time.

Remember, the only dumb question is one not asked.......

Edit: you can contribute to the existing threads. It's not like Madden has been dissected a ton in these various threads, and the newest post is probably the one he's gonna see first. :

Re: New Vids on IGN 5/30
 

I love the game winning TD at the end of the Dolphins vid and yet one friggen guy celebrates. In the end, the reciever who scores is all alone like nothing ever happened. This is what drives me crazy. The crowd should go nuts and at least half the O should be shown celebrating. *sigh* Or give us a friggen little sidline cut scene....

Re: New Vids on IGN 5/30
 

Im not trying to sound like a broken record but its the pre alpha, I have no clue whether its like that in the final build but this would strike me as something that you address further through development

Re: New Vids on IGN 5/30
 

I think the crowd noise was pretty good. Check out the changes in crowd noise at these parts of the video:
:25 1st down reception
:57 gradual noise increase for 4 yard gain
1:19 1st down reception
1:38 TD reception

To be honest, there shouldn't have been that many fans in the stadium to begin with being that the dolphins had no wins.
