I'm surprised no one has mentioned the generic lettering on the Eagles jerseys. The name font is still like the number font, right?

The art contact guy (Michael Young, @mysportsphotog) was made aware of this yesterday by myself and WTFitsDaveyJ and is he looking into it.

but hasn't that been the gripe of the community for years now, that Madden doesn't even equate to other games on the market in terms of presentation?

If they didn't have this the reaction would be to slam them. They have it and now the reaction is meh..other games have it.

Seems to be a no win situation at times.

Unfortunately the many lackluster titles released previously put them in this situation. It shouldn't be a shock to anyone to see a member of this community weary about buying into a hyped up 2 min. trailer.

People are so starved for a good football game that encompasses what NBA 2k and The Show do well that they are willing for ANYTHING that resembles NFL authenticity between the endzones and then some.

Save the "damned if we do and damned if we don't" reaction. It's really about time an NFL game had this. It's only 2011.

People complain that they don't have certain things in the game, then complain when stuff makes it into the game.

And considering you quoted my post, by people I bet you mean me.

No one is complaining. If you think that is a complaint, then you're using the word incorrectly. Not buying into the hype and "complaining" are two very different things.

Overall, I liked what I saw, but why does Michael Vick's picture still have cornrows in it? The presentation blog indicates that they went all out for the tiny "details" of the game. Why does this keep getting missed when he cut 'em off back when he was in Atlanta?

Last year was the first time since Madden 97 that I didn't buy the game, game looks good and with franchise/dynasty updates they might be bringing me back

Nobody is saying that we shouldn't have had this already or its about time, I'm sure we are all thinking that, but I don't get the "cold shoulder" towards the game when they finally, at least seemingly, deliver on some of the things we have been asking for.

I'm not saying that everyone should be jumping up and down and rushing out to pre-order the game, nor that its even going to be a success..., but I for one am glad, late or not, that they have listened to the community and added some of the things they have added.

Someone had to be. A lot of this stuff is standard in every other sports game. *shrugs*

Couldnt agree more. Still end of week show or enhanced draft. IMO I think the game will play better on the field, but will still be stale off of it.

Re: Madden NFL 12 Video - Presentation Sizzle

Well Im intrigued....but I really need to see the raw gameplay footage.....EA are masters of this sizzle marketing

Hope it all comes together though....Football gamers have had it rough on these consoles....and I hope we can all exhale a bit this year and enjoy a truly rock solid football game again

Pared, I dont think you need to qualify your opinion with anyone. Seeing Vick running onto the field with an overlay does nothing for me. EA needs to capture football like NBA 2k does. Just all around immersion. I think the problem is alot of people expected Madden to be alot further ahead then it is in terms of presentation, physics, etc.

Man this video is off the wall right now, Man this has me totally pumped up for the game now. Once we get info on offline franchise mode on May 16th then I'll be happy for the year.

Now we are talking! Nicely done Madden team! I was whining about Madden falling behind to NCAA in it's promotion, but they have me eating my post and have come out big time!! And PROGRESSIVE LIGHTING is finally back!!!

**JerseySuave4** · 04-28-2011, 08:33 PM

this stuff looks nice but when it comes to Madden i'm more concerned about the gameplay. What they've done with the presentation is amazing but if i'm not sold on the gameplay then its a no buy for me. With NCAA i can look past less than perfect gameplay because of the variety of teams, stadiums, etc. but not Madden.

I'm still skeptical.

Anyone can put out a teaser with a good song. You see it done all the time by the game players on youtube after the game is released.

Have to see REAL gameplay as that is the biggest gripe all the time.

I feel the same way. I'm hoping this isn't the case.
