OKAY?....

And your point is?

Yep, that's their field. Good eye there.

Sorry, this was for Ian. He asked my to post it because the Bills field in the game looks nothing like the real one.

Well, what I gather from the OP's post is that the field grass in 09 is wrong. And I agree.

And Michael, you know I praise you a lot for much of what you do and do a great job, but the grass just seems like too many artistic liberties were taken. It appears that the idea was to make highlights that looked more like the real world, but this doesn't translate well in a video game and it comes across as overdone. And when you compare the two photos above, it's indisputable that the Madden grass is over-detailed to the point of looking unnatural.

I know some disagree, but the grass in Madden 09 just isn't the type of green it should be. I don't understand how having healthy green grass became so difficult all of a sudden this generation. The design part in terms of detailing I can see as a difficult thing. But getting the color right just seems like a no-brainer.
