I am sitting on my couch snowed in with a few friends of mine and one of them brought over FIFA 10. I will admit I am not a big soccer fan and do not play FIFA. However, the player interaction and locomotion system is PHENOMENAL.
Players run, cut, jump, stumble, and dive incredibly realistically. The momentum as well as acceleration and deceleration is done in a way it looks completely real. Also, on defense players put hands on the defenseman, their feet get tangled, they "jostle" for the ball. I am amazed at what I am seeing right now.
Ian, Madden desperately needs this put into Madden. Please make all these things happen in Madden 11.
PS: I am also not a fan of baseball and do not play "The Show". I came across this video from gametrailers and it really puts in perspective how behind I think Madden has fallen on the next gen system. What really sticks out to me is how realistic everything flows from the broadcast, to the way players move and react (even when they aren't the pitcher or hitter) and the CROWD (WOW JUST WOW)

I do believe in Ian, and I think they will get it right. I am just hoping it is sooner rather then later....
