The devs explained this they said that in tackle alley everyone is set on aggressive but in actual gameplay they don't tackle like that.

I agree man, those tackles look great, but the way they tackle needs work. I only saw three tackle styles. A jump/dive tackle, a shoulder lean high, and a shoulder lean low. Now, I don't know if that is the only way they initiate a tackle, but I don't like the fact that they way the defense tackles looks extremely repetitive in the video. But there's no denying that the tackles are unique and look very realistic (even if the way the tackle was initiated doesn't).

Not a chance... my speakers aren't even turned on, lol.

I thought they were violent when I saw them last year in that video, and I still think so now. All of the flying around, leaping... the collisions themselves... it's a crash derby.

Remember they are set to aggressive in the real games they don't tackle like that

I'm talking consensus though. Reading most of the comments that pop up, I think it's safe to say that the general impression is that the hits in the game are pretty extreme and certainly more so than what you'd see take place consistently during the course of a real life game.

I think Madden has too many big hits. I think BB based on what we've seen, has more than that. Each hit I've seen in BB makes me visualize the hit cam shake happening.

I'll have to see some actual video proof of that from them.

They had another recent video with yet more explosive tackles... I think it was on that PSN show. I mean really, if you have some regular tackles, after all this time wouldn't you have shown one that didn't look so aggressive? A wrap up? A pull down? Something?
