Sidenote: I finally figured out what I don't like about "throwing a guy open" -- the WR does not PLANT, he just slides into the new direction. That is why it looks weird -- if the WR quickly planted or something it would make it look a little more realistic. That way throwing a WR open wouldn't become too easy.

Its pretty simple actually. The grass in the replays and screenshots use the 3D grass, but when you go to actual gameplay, the grass is a dead green.

Example A (3D Grass):

Example B (No 3D Grass):

Maybe its just me, but the colors in the first are a lot more vibrant and natural, while the second screenshot have dulled down color and it looks like the players are stepping on tile instead of grass. Just my opinion though, I know its not a big deal for everyone.

Meh... nothing to see here. After last year's debacle, this will be a September purchase if I buy 2013 at all. Let me know when they address the numerous issues with custom stadium sounds, team builder, custom conference scheduling or many of the other glaring flaws that made 2012 such a headache.
