That shot is very atmospheric. Ian said the lighting is still being tuned but it really conveys an emotion.

That could just be the designer in me reading too much into it.

This has been hashed over. Basically, it's because they'd have to redo the animations if they made it any smaller.

Yeah thats what i'm waiting on the mouth pieces. Nice screen though. I knew as soon as I seen the hand warmers people would be trippin just like the towels...lol

Now all I need from a screen shot is some mouth peices and then i'll be trippin or at least confrimation of them would be good enough for me!!!

2:00 – 3:00 – “The Lab” (Focus: General Gameplay and AI Feedback in practice mode).

I hope this also means practice mode has been worked on and we may see more depth in practice. A set of downs for offensive and defensive play would be nice Ian.

Right..Without having to redo all of the animations. Ian told us this awhile back. We will have to live with big balls this year. I know that it might be hard for some but we all have to make sacrifices in certain areas to devote time to development in other areas.

I guess... I don't know.. seems like they sell so many copies of this game it wouldn't really dent anyones pocket even witht eh economy ... but I understand that every group has a budget.

I think IAN addressed this and said that if they made it any smaller this year then they'd have to rework the hands or fingers or something.... bottom line it would've been more trouble than its worth.
