Gus Johnson Confirmed Play-By-Play Commentator For Madden NFL 11 w/ Gameplay Video

Way back in late April some of our keen readers noticed Gus Johnson would probably make his way into Madden NFL 11.

Today, Kotaku has confirmed Gus Johnson has the play-by-play gig.

Quote:
"Today, Johnson, the exciting and excitable CBS sportscaster, officially became the fourth play-by-play man to hold sports gaming's top booth job. Teased at the end of this video a month ago, Johnson's hiring is hardly a shocker, and neither are EA Sports' reasons for grabbing him. After nearly 20 years of often sedate, always straightforward calls by the likes of Pat Summerall and Al Michaels, Madden badly needed the kind of high-five-yourself enthusiasm Johnson imposes on a game."

You can also check out the newest video with Gus Johnson and Kotaku's Owen Good featured in Madden NFL 11 here.
Platform: PS3 / Xbox 360

What a difference a better commentator makes!!!!

Edit: Really hoping we get some current gameplay footage today though. That was listed as Pre-Alpha which means that was probably a few months ago.

LOL @ Crabtree deciding to hold out another six games just to keep his rhythm.
