Funny Thunderbirds cutscene in a dome.

But you're missing the point of my post here, friend - I'm talking about the perception of the effect they're trying to create in-game. Not real life.

If it was their intention to demonstrate a flyover for a dome game - than it needs to be executed DIFFERENTLY than every other flyover in the game.

Right now - simply leaving the same shot progression in place as every other flyover without any variation whatsoever creates the impression of a mistake. It's sloppy. Cookie cutter, even. That's what my beef is - the culture that will settle for halfassed things in Madden MUST die. I thought it was dead but this one slipped through.

When something is designed well - it becomes invisible. When something's "just not right" - it creates a distraction. I feel allowing "invisible jet flyovers" in the video game creates a distraction - making it a poor choice. They can do ANYTHING, including just waiting to get it right. (Exterior shot in M11 FTW)

Ya dig?

Yeah, I saw this and thought it was real goofy...good thing I don't like to play in domes.

Any chance you were ay Super Bowl XXV??

I played Super Bowl 45...lol sorry, not sure on the Roman Numerals for it, and it's in Dallas's new stadium, and the jets flew over head with the roof closed. It was funny.
