Lets put gameplay, AI and offline franchise fixes asside for a second. I'd like to know which ONE Presentation feature do you feel would be the most important upgrade for Madden 10?

I would like to see them all, but my ONE vote is for broadcast camera angles. I think its current state is the biggest thing that takes you out of the NFL experience in Madden.

Pre-half-post game highlights of big plays and big players. Post game Player of the Game!

I don't know if stat updates and records count as "other", but that is what I picked. Stuff like, Cedric Benson has rushed for over 100 yards today, Chad Ocho Cinco has gone over 1000 yards receiving for the season, TJ Houshmandzadeh has 14 TD receptions this season (tied for 2nd), up to date season passing yardage leaders .... etc.

Stuff like that. It makes me more aware of what other teams in the league are doing. I don't care so much for replays or highlights of other games, but stat overlays.

All great choices to pick from.

But I chose, pre/halftime/post game shows...weekly recaps.

As things are now in franchise mode, I feel completely disconnented from the rest of the league. It seems like my franchise team is the only one playing the season.

Myself...I think this type of feature would really make franchise mode come alive. But I can't help but wonder if this type of thing is beyond what we'll see for '10'. I've got a feeling it may boil down to a few more lines of commentary...rather than what I would consider a "Show'. Hope I'm wrong.

They are all great choices but I chose living sidelines. I do think that they will get this done this year. I remember Ian posting earlier in the year how that is not that hard for them to program.

There's no reason why we shouldn't have all of the above, the other game gave most if not all of them to us back in 04.

Looking back to my first post about Presentation upgrades for Madden 10 - started in February, it looks like about half of my wishlist has been filled. Not bad for one year's hard work. My #1 issue however remains unfixed: the lack of a broadcast camera.

Commentary is still an issue.

Camera Angles are still 1-dimensional (with plans to patch in broadcast down the road)

Progressive Weather/Time of Day is not confirmed

Living Sidelines are IN. More cutscenes of players and fans.

Franchise Tickers are not confirmed.

Pre/Halftime/Postgame shows are in. Extra Point!

X2! That's presentation there to have all of the above.None is more important then the other imo all have to be good.

The least is commentary because sometimes I don't listen to it much.
