Anybody Else Feel Like Madden is Missing that Swag??? Lets Get It!!!

This is next level gaming right here. No NFL players stands lifeless. Other than Peyton Manning. NFL is a game of emotion, passion and exuberance. These things need to be exaggerated, because they are non existent in the game. Lets get some blood flowing. Lets get some confidence. Lets get some bounce in the players.

Adrian Peterson busts a 20 yard run, he doesnt get up and walk to the huddle. POPS up, showing emotion and Skips back to the huddle. This is swag. This is life. This sunday in the NFL.

Great videos! Slowing down before a TD is a nice touch.

Chris Johnson is fast! I want to see that type of acceleration in the game.

I could care less.

I hate when players slow up to celebrate in real life.

I know it happens in real life, and if its added, cool, but I dont think it adds any "swag" at all.

I thought NCAA 09 did a good job this. What do you guys think?

well considering you would have 6 flags on the play for excessive celebration if you had the first video in madden

I'm all for anything that adds a little bit more machismo to the game. Whether it's celebration after making a play or just a little touch of showboating - little sprinkles of this stuff would be GREAT and would go a long way to making the players seem more alive.

Of course, go too far and it becomes parody - NFL Blitz stylized, cartoony - and that's not cool...


There was an old animation in Madden I used to get a kick out of - after the tackle, players would shove opposing player's limbs away. That was a wow moment...as in "Wow, they're angry". Give me that "Wow, he's an A-hole" moment please.

very much agree. There needs to be more swagger to the players. Nice examples too.
