Found this on nfl2kx. I didn't know that this was going to be in the game.

I'm reading the latest PSM, and it has its annual Gridion special. And, it makes a statement in a pic caption on NFL Showdown pg 59, that "just like Madden, this year's ESPN NFL has real time weather, so you might even see rain or snow start to fall, which will affect a runner's traction. Now the latter of the quote I was aware of but, Madden's weather is suppose to be also based on real time, which they state will rain, stop raining, fog, basically run the gammot of "The Day after tommorrow". Did you guys already know this or did I sleep on this feature?.

I hope they work on the visuals for rain , snow and fog this year. I didnt like the fact that in those conditions they got rid of all or most of the lighing effects and shadowing. while i agree that those conditions would greatly decrease lighing i think they over do it. making the players textures look washed and cartoonish. i hope they find a nice ballance where you can tell the diffrence between weather conditions but you still have some shadowing and realistic looking textures.

shouldn't be a problem considering the game was built on the xbox. I expect it'll be better than last yr. We'll see though.
