If i didn't know any better I would have thought that was Madden08.

They really need to take the time to redo the animations in this series because, they are VERY poor.

I got a funny feeling that the new online franchise mode took up the majority of their development time and the people (like me) who wanted a better animated game will once again be SCREWED.

Typical EA they will pimp online leagues as the big new feature while the rest of the game suffers.

It's no reason why I should be able to watch 1 minute of gameplay video and already see the majority of the tackle animations that were in the previous year's game.

This game 'looks' exactly like 08 in regards to the animations.

I would think as the release draws near, we'll see some better videos and ones that are more in-depth, meaning longer than 2 minutes. All in all, its good, but its nothing, gameplay wise, that I haven't seen before.

I thought it looked alright, tbh. Only thing that really stuck out as bad was the angle that DB took on the TD. Certainly playable and if there's no turnover issue I think I might be buying Madden for the first time in a few years.

This looked like it was on a reasonable level of difficulty unlike that NCAA vid on freshman.

Eh.. Graphics look sharper. Animations look the same, gameplay looks the same. I am pretty lukewarm towards the game as it stands now.

Video looked good. The Minnesota defender still took a poor angle at the ball carrier on the TD pass.
David Ortiz was playing the game.

Nice find Delray.

The graphics look really good. It can only get much better with the graphic overlays and commentary. They need to completely erase that fake gang tackle animation at the 50 sec. mark. Tackles NEVER look like that. Also, I like the increase in crowd noise on the TD play.
