Time to speculate: "New tech, never seen before in a football game" - Ian

hip hop gamer released this info awhile back, its the tool set, ENDORPHIN(not euphoria). it was on his blog, they were probably pissed that he released the info when he did, just look under updated madden info thread for the link

Yea unfortunately its only on the PS3. Nobody you know owns a PS3?

Wow how times have changed.
In the past the majority owned a PS2, and now in the next gen era the majority owns a 360.

To truly see how fluid and how great this games looks, you have to see on a HD set on either 720p or 1080p. No video on the net does it true justice.

360 came ut 1st, its cheaper, user friendly, and ps3 just doent have the exclusives anymore oh and of course paying for xbox live is a lot better than playin on psn for free. btw i own both and the show is the only ps3 game i own

As long as it didn't make fumble returns for touchdowns impossible, that is...

I doubt that he's talking about any of the Natural Motion stuff (endorphin, euphoria, or Morpheme.) It would be great if he were because of the impact that would have on tackling, but in the past I think Ian has sounded guarded about the prospects of that tech working in a full fledged football game.

I'd like to see a more physics based animation selection system. I don't necessarily think the days of MoCapping should come to an end ala Euphoria, but I would like to see animations get selected based on the physics of the situation, meaning that a players weight and momentum would determine the outcome of a collision more than it does now.

As far as a new tech that would be added from one build to the next, I can't imagine it's a very wide scale feature for it to have been put in this late for Ian to get to play with. I'd be excited for a multiple tackler thing. Two man tackles are not really gang tackles. It's annoying to me to have 4 defenders around a ball carrier and have two of them have to twiddle their thumbs while the guy picks up a few more yards pushing the other two back.
