How about the oft-mentioned.... Real-time dirty uniforms? Or at least some semblance of it. Where they don't ALL get dirty at the start of "X" quarter. Also, where they get a little dirty even in non-inclement weather, but FILTY in rain.

Footprints in snow? Splashing puddles? Voluminous snow?




Out of curiousity, why would they need a hard drive to add uni's that get dirty as the game progresses? The "other game"( ) has had this for several years, and it didn't require large amounts of disk space.



Yea, but think about all the other space hogs ESPN had last year that THE OTHER GAME didn't. Things like sharper textures, lighting, halftime shows, cutscenes, etc.

So they couldn't add something as basic as uni's getting dirty during a game because it was more important to have halftime shows and some guy waving and saying "hi,mom"?

Sounds like a questionable design decision to me...

Re: The Power of \"The BOX\"

I love the cut scenes and I'm glad they have more. But they;ll probably have lighting like splinter cell (not exactly but maybe it'll be sorta the same).

I would much rather have the field getting dirty and having all the presentation then to have a jersey get dirty. That's not a high priority.

I don't care. It isn't even like they only spent space on cut scenes and a halftime show. Like you said, they have better lighting and all kinds of other stuff in the game that might've used space or they just might not have had time to include it last year. The jersey's getting dirty is a minor thing (at least to me) and while it looks good, I really don't care about it that much.

I agree, but I have a feeling we're the minority. Regardless, it'll probably be implemented this year, along with all the other goodies. Now EVERYONE can be happy!

Re: The Power of \"The BOX\"

Yeah, since they are using the xbox ( ), everything should be addressed.
