I hope they fix the horrible route running animations.

Screens don't look like crap, they just look identical to Madden 10

Really? Looks the same pretty much as M10 to me (and no, I'm not a socks guy), which looked really good when freeze framed.

Not really liking it. Players have this shiny "barbie doll" look to their skin. Take a page from The Show's book. Player skin in that is perfect IMO.

I thought Madden 10 was a great improvement in the graphics department, but there were many problems such especially poor looking player models (very poorly proportioned) and uniforms, and that second screen? YUCK. It shows that stupid mid air collision animation that was SAID to have been taken out last year, which it was not, and now they are saying that the DB play has been enhanced and become more realistic and I see that animation? Fairly disappointed

and while better catching is something that we've heard before from EA Sports, it sounds as though they're finally putting an adequate amount of development resources behind one of finer points of football.

I think the above is key. We can't pretend we didn't hear about better sideline awareness last year and years before. But it sounds like it's more of a focus this year as opposed to a quick fix.

P.S. I hope that Ian's blog hits on a different topic and doesn't just elaborate more on the IGN stuff. That's probably being a bit greedy, but so what .

They actually have some facial expressions, they don't look quite so much like zombies.
