Agreed. While they improved the running immensely, imo the running issue is the same it was in 2K5 - the problem is with the ball carrier. Everyone else animates fine/looks natural when running, but they make the ball carrier carry the ball too close/tight to his body and his running strides don't make it look as if he's trying to stride hard. Not enough differentiation in showing changes in speed (going slow to fast).

I was crying about that years ago. Two [seemingly] little changes would make a world of difference. Part of the reason Madden finally looks interesting imo is because they improved the running anims; they were horrible the previous two years on NG imo. Will have to see more video of APF though to know for sure. When you see Payton run, it looks so natural because he's changing his strides and not carring the ball so tightly to his body. And Jerry Rice running various patterns are animations as well done as I've seen in a football game. They look eerily realistic. It'll be a little frustrating if the ball carrier thing turns out to be the case, because a couple small changes could make playing w/Barry Sanders that much cooler

Agreed. Looks fine for the most part, but players seem to float or something at times - like they're running without touching the ground.

I think the running looks better. Last time it looked like they were being used like hand puppets.

Very true. However, that's a signature running style. We'll see if the generic running styles are that incredibly fab

You think anyone is going to take a generic RB? I'm pretty sure everyone will have a Gold or Silver RB, at the very least Bronze. All the legends are supposed to have signature moves, especially at RB.
