IMO that is the whole point of a sports game. The goal should be to fool the eye of the gamer into believing he is watching/playing a real NFL broadcast game. *See MLB 09 The Show* I sincerely hope Ian's comment means that the team is close to getting those long sought after angles back into the series.

Hmm...that's actually not correct. I only referred to FIFA and NHL...it was on this forum. I appreciate the post but if you are going to quote me please take care to not change it up. Your post may be harmless but all it takes is a slight exaggeration and before long posts start showing up saying "Ian guarantees defeat over lowly MLB The Show!"

So Thx for confirming that multiple camera angles are in..

Since FIFA and NHL have multiple camera angles....LOL JK... I know you guys are still quiet on the issue.

This is a huge misconception, and really needs to be addressed. Madden 2010 may not have multiple playable cameras, but it will still have multiple broadcast cameras. So rest assured, if you're worried about presentation, they still will have all the tools to create an immersive TV-broadcast experience.

I asked this same exact question 1-2 months ago, and Ian chimed in with the clarification pretty quickly.

Same here...exactly.
No multiple gameplay cameras = dealbreaker = no Madden10.

Not sure what you mean. Are you saying that 'broadcast' cameras are for replays and cpu vs cpu and are NOT playable?
Can you clarify?

Ian, sorry i didnt mean to missquote or imply that you said MLB The Show was going to be following Madden's presentation. When i said "other sports games" I meant NHL and Fifa. My reference to MLB was more as a current standing example of excellent presentation and camera angle options that deliver that Broadcast experience. Here's hoping you guys can deliver the same. Cheers.

This is the kind of view that we need!

Ian, the game-play is great, graphics have never been an issue with me, etc.... But the game is NOT WORTH PLAYING AT ALL IF A PERSON CANNOT SEE THE PLAYERS!!!!
Everyone playing on a 4:3, on the present version, is simply not acceptable. I will not purchase the 360 version this year without a full-screen view!
