What if I told you they improved the Draft Coverage....

Just kidding. No idea if they did, but we shall find out when the blog is released!

For instance last year at launch Charcandrick West or Spencer Ware would never have been considered to have their names recorded but with injuries their play time significantly increased and they now have the ability to record and input those names into scenarios. So instead of hearing "Touchdown Chiefs" every time you score with one of them no matter what, now maybe after an update you hear "Touchdown Charcandrick West" sometimes too. Same with players like Victor Cruz where maybe later in the cycle the announcers are saying his name when at release he wasn't even on the radar.

Right. They obviously won't specifically record stuff for your CFM but happenings in your CFM might be covered by future updates. If it's done right you won't even know it happened.

Don't get too excited until you hear how it sounds in game, remember this.

That is a great video to show just how much different the flow is between Madden and a normal broadcast. If they could achieve anywhere near that level of fluidity then it would be a ridiculous jump in quality for commentary.

I really liked the part about foley, those peeks behind the scenes with rubbed cloth, spoon meets helmet, ski pole and drenched shirt sure felt fascinating, and made me better appreciate the efforts of those who strive to "tell a story" in a videogame using sound effects.

Definitely like the sound of this but execution, as always, will be key. Will it all flow or be choppy and out of place? We'll find out.

I'm just so happy I'm no longer going to have to hear Phil Simms pronounce "Jim" as "Jeem".
