And when it shows the players come out of the tunnel at the beginning, that was intense. The fans are jumping up and down, felt like you was down on the field really coming out of the locker rooms. I am loving what I am seeing, more and more with each passing video. I loved some of the tackles I saw, people getting leveled and knocked out of the air, etc.

Yeah that tunnel walk was pretty sweet. Makes you feel like one of the players on the field, getting ready for the big game.

It looks like Madden 11 copied their kicking meter. EA.. smh

Yeah because the stats in Madden really change the game . I would rather my kicker level someone than have him block an elite DE (if you follow Madden your well aware you can put your kicker as a LT and block the best defensive ends in the game, no problem).

Seriously, I don't know whats more annoying, the people who defend games like they are guaranteed to be the greatest thing ever or the people who will come up with any excuse to rip into them.

Wow, this game looks to be much better and deeper then I was expecting.

How is it an excuse to rip them? Every player is governed by the same 5 stats. If you make a kicker a strong leg, it's not unreasonable that could cause 'sim' problems when it comes to their tackling ability, etc.

Yet another person who thinks it's OK for something to be missing/broken in BB because another game does something wrong. Nice logic, thanks for playing.

Exactly what is wrong with using 5 basic stats? There are position specific stats as well, not just 5 stats for every player. BB is doing things differently, not leaving things out because other games have failed in those areas(barring injuries..'dice rolls')

I suggest you be a little more informed before posting so presumptuously.

People clearly see what they want to see. Those animations are extremely stiff and awkward across the board. The opening sequence where the team comes out of the tunnel looks like a WWE entrance with a bunch of roid freaks in football uniforms.
