Am I Seeing Things?

There is a fine balance between a camera that is good for gameplay and one(s) that are good for presentation. The "classic" or "madden" cams are solid for passing but hardly represent Everything You See on Sunday. I think the solution to this issue is to offer a variety of camera options - like Head Coach 09 does. Cinematic and broadcast are my 2 favorite options and I would love to see them used in Madden 10's incredible graphics engine.

There's got to be a revision of the post-play cameras too as they are about 95% awful and certainly not broadcast in any way, especially with all the strange zooming out.

But as for gameplay cams, they've got to be adjustable. It's possible that they could nail it with set-in-stone varieties to choose from, but the bottom line is that adjustable is best; adjustable is where all the other EA Sports games have gone, it's where sports games of last gen already went, and it's long overdue for Madden in this gen to step up and give us this very basic thing.

I agree that the angle is probably going to be the most used, but I also campaine for varying DEGREES and DEPTH to that angle. Maybe I want to zoom all the way out and raise the camera, so I can see my wide receivers pre-snap defaultly. Maybe I want to put the camera ALL the way above the players to give me an x's and o's feel.
