Maybe they have the rights but the NFL forbade using the name

Wow, I don't even know what to say. So happy right now.

I hope not like deformed oddities like in previous Maddens. But salute to EA for all the equipment updates. Long overdue.

Looks good, not a priority for me, but it sure looks good.
 
# 45 DGuinta1 @ 06/29/16 06:40 PM
Mouth pieces?

A few more Madden NFL 17 screenshots featuring new/upgraded equipment...

Nice.. Everything looks good. Thanks Kane... I wonder if they removed accessories not mentioned like the arm wrap etc.
 
# 48 apollon42 @ 06/29/16 07:14 PM
Madden looks great in still shots. It's when they start moving ....
 
# 49 NewscasterNews4 @ 06/29/16 07:39 PM
They finally updated the 3 Bar RB facemask! That's been a bit low for years and they finally showed it love. Hopefully they also made the Sam Bradford facemask a bit higher as well. Other than that I'm quite happy with these updates, especially the one arm sleeves.

Very impressed and this is something that really increases my enjoyment. I'm sure the NFL players love it as well because they create a more authentic version of themselves.

Two items on my wish list:
#1- Mouth pieces
#2- Improved 1-arm sleeves. They need to show some skin above and below
 
# 51 NDAlum @ 06/29/16 07:45 PM
Let's get this back on topic gentlemen.

Thank you

That's why I was asking about the arm wrap and wondering if it's been scanned and back in the game. Might look better than that full sleeve.

They actually have them listed backwards. The ones listed as the 2's are actually the older Untouchables

I may not be the best person to respond, what do I know about Jordan cleats or sneakers? However, they look pretty damn close to Jordan 6's that were released for the 2014 Super Bowl (except for the blue on the side of the shoe and no gold soles). To say they look generic has to be a joke.

???????????. I'm at a loss for words. Especially after comparing them to the real pics in the next post. They look EXACTLY alike dude, you lost me with this post.

Can't deny the cleat scans look AMAZING. The detail is krazy.
