Re: EA why cant you fix the QB throwing animation?
It's really not about how great 2K does it - imo they've done it well but I don't feel it's done perfectly/can't be improved on. Imo the problem with next gen Madden/NCAA is that the QB animations are done so poorly - not poorly compared to 2K, just poorly done. I don't have last gen Madden, but I do have NCAA '06 for the Xbox. Here's some passing video from practice mode:
Ignoring the problems inherent with the gameplay (no pockets; OL/DL issues), the QB play is depicted fairly well. The need to step into throws. The sheer variety of throws. Much better footwork. Much better QB form on the passes themselves. Throwing from awkward angles appropriately affects the passes. Imo the issue has nothing to do with 2K; it's more about how poorly it's been depicted the past four years in Madden. That's not to say it hasn't improved significantly from what Madden '06 was, because it has improved - it's just improved no where near to the degree it needed to, given how bad it was in '06
