If he does Madden 2010 Commentary, I'd buy the game even if they went retro with the gameplay back to 1991.

The discussion here is fantastic. There are some Collinsworth haters out there but I'm a big fan of Cris after working with him personally and think he sounds great in the game. Here are my thoughts about the Hammond/Collinsworth paring.

They both have tough jobs but for completely different reasons.

Hammond has the unfortunate job of doing play by play. PbP by nature sounds 'cut up' because it is cut up. There's a boatload of stitching that has to happen. Some voice actors have a delivery that fits stitching perfectly, some dont. In Hammond's case, I think he did a great job. If you don't like his delivery in Madden, you probably wouldn't like to hear him on gameday either.

yea PbP is more about getting the seamlessness... 2K series took years refining the lines and the execution every year to get where they are. I love CC and I enjoy Hammond ok (although I voted for Buck with out even questioning it).

Buck was on our short list of guys that we wanted but didn't work out.

How about Mike Torico on the list? Now that Hammonds is on Madden 09, is that an automatic for next year?
