The Announcers?

Yeah, 2k5's commentary was better than 2k8. Still, Dan and Peter are the best duo on any sports game. I will say though that I do like Cris Collinsworth. I think he puts a lot of effort into it, and it comes out really well. As for Tom Hamonds though, he needs a lot of work in the game. I would like to see them find a voice actor or somebody who can act well to fill that position.

Although I would like to hear Pat Summerall in the game again. His voice is made for it.

On the Madden front, Summerall and Madden together - in their late-80s or early-90s peak - would be great. Using their current voices would not be nearly as good....time is unkind to us all, but John and Pat sound nothing like they did 20 years ago...

Okay, how would they implement the players names if they used the voices from that time period? And look, this is not a madden/2k thing, but you don't think that collinsworth and hammonds weren't repetitive? "He just got DE-CLEATED!"

Again...expand the library of lines by both commentators...this should help with that...maybe instead of having 2 or 3 lines for a given situation (ie a big hit) make it 5-6...you'd hear the decleated line 67% less often...

Madden 11 will be Michaels and Collinsworth, Hammond will be dropped IMO.

That is a possibility, but what IF John Madden somehow decides to
come out of retirement before the season starts and team up with Al Michaels again? I don't think that Al Michaels want to be teamed up with Chris Collinsworth. This is still a very unlikely thing to happen.
