	"While we have a number of announcements and updates to come over the next several weeks leading up to next month's NFL Draft, I'm excited to debut the first screenshot from this year's game right here this week. The old adage says, "A picture is worth a thousand words", and that is certainly true in this fantastic shot. How many improvements can you pick out? The Madden dev team will call each one out in their blog later this week."

wow this looks amazing

with each new update and now this, it makes even harder to play 09 right now

# 103 Ian_Cummings @ 03/23/09 02:25 PM

Still 2 more new things that haven't been mentioned...

These are quite small details...you'll have to get your super critical eyes out. I never thought there was a shortage of those around here?

it's probably using the Texture Compositor. same thing that the NCAA team used to combine the art files together to get the team-specific endzones for bowl games, etc...

most likely same tech was used to get the super bowl patches on the jerseys.

I think it would be a real statement of intent buy putting a DL or OL on the cover.

To me, it would say...goodbye to the fancy flashy window dressing Madden experience with no substance and hello to the new gritty realistic sim Madden.

Not that having an offensive superstar is a bad thing but just musing.

Don't even try..trade it in now to get maximum Gamestop trade in value and reserve your Madden 10.

It is truly amazing when you start to quantify the amount of work Ian and his team have accomplished in 1 year...

And we've only seen ONE screenshot.

Unless that's Dick LeBeau that's not a coach, I'm assuming that's part of the officiating staff.

Was my WR New Animation guess correct?

I think some of us are reading too much into this screen shot.

1. There is no evidence of interactive sidelines. However, I do see live coaches, and that's a huge plus.

2. Too small an area to judge accurately how much blocking has been improved. It looks like a pocket's forming, but we see only 2 linemen and they're very close to the QB.

3. We've seen these animations by offensive linemen with '09... but they were basically in an engage-disengage system with animations to make it look kinda like blocking.

My personal "list of 6"
1. Superbowl Sidelines
2. Superbowl patches
3. Hand towels
4. Refs and chain gang
5. Enhanced graphics
6. Coaches wandering sidelines

Chin strap? Were there chin straps like that in '09? It looks like the slack after the snap is actually hanging off the helmet.

# 111 DMczaf @ 03/23/09 02:27 PM

Ian, do you guys already know what you're going to show in the first trailer?

Also, great job of getting the coaches walking the sideline

# 112 drventure @ 03/23/09 02:28 PM

is it the different sleeves or has that already been mentioned

The jokes just never stop do they

Ian all I want to say is thanks to you and your team for working so hard to return Madden to the great game that we all grew up to love. I am so excited for August it is UNBELIEVABLE!!

I do have one question though.. Does the towel move or does it just stay attached to the hip?

That was mentioned in the WR/DB blog so I don't consider that 'new', but yes, that is new for 10.

Also, I swear those chin straps look like they move...and I think I see asst. coaches on the sidelines man...I'm still studying this pic though. Amazing...amazing...amazing!!! I'm frigin flippin out over here man... Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! I'm buying extra copies to give out!

Yeah, I thought I saw Dick LeBeau on the sideline in a grey shirt. This is very impressive. Anyone have a time portal so we can get to August faster?

Incorrect. Epic fail.

While I know that Proceduaral Awareness is in place because ofyour update, I can't really tell if it is working in a screen shot. You could maybe argue the DT is looking at ben or something but there really is no spot to se WHAT/WHO ben is looking at. if this is one of the features Ian is counting to be in the shot, I really don't think that is far as there are no tip offs that I can see, other than ben NOT looking at his reciver down field n the shot.

Also the LB on the far left seems to be looking into space, no looking at the Lineman or QB he is hoping to rush, or even a RB who may have been part of a play action because how far into the backfield he is looking. I know, maybe he is looking at John Candy's ghost!

I do see real time lighting effects/more visibly at least. I really look forward o Ian or someone pointing out what we ARE missing. Grat update guys.

# 119 thudias @ 03/23/09 02:32 PM

Are the refs authentic? Is that Ed Hocculi (sp)?
