Small but factual content for Madden 11

[Joeyland]

Joeyland has just learned these facts about Madden 11...

There will be assist coaches, and coordinators, voiced in the game...
The new game will only be available for PS3, and X-Box 360...
Its not much but its fact...

Im hoping the mentality is not to just add more polish, the word from Orlando is lots of coach's dialogue been added...
Voiced by actors...

where did you learn these "facts" from that makes them "facts"?

Joyland is a trusted source

[cletusdog]

sounds like a pretty minor "throwaway" addition that will be overhyped by EA

Wow, no PS2 game? That's easy profits since they put almost nothing into the development of that version anymore.

So far, I've heard custom stadium sounds, fight songs, and now assistant coaches/coordinators probably voiced for improved presentation. I still find the game on the field barely playable, I wish I would hear they were working on polishing pro-tak to eliminate sliding/suction, blocking ai, man coverage overall, procedural awareness, better route based passing, and a dozen other areas this game still frustrates people on the field.

I work with talent, thats how I get my info, that being said the guys getting hired to do some of the voice work are really being kept in the dark, very hush hush down there, thats the only reason I posted what I did, I figure what they do let out, they're cool with.

I was hoping there would be some buzz, something palpable in the air, ever notice when some hot update, or version of a title is coming you can smell it early. Which tells me its probably more of the same with more polish and presentation. Save money by limiting the consoles, no PS2, no Wii?? Waste money voicing special team coaches. I guess there's some business logic to it.
Its seems like Madden will get its next real facelift when we get another console.

The games got progressivly better towards the end of the PS2's life as the main console. Im hoping for the same thing. Man, I miss owner mode. Its such a fun part of The Show, I really want it back in Madden.

For this to not go terribly wrong, it all has to be in perfect sync, and not sound cheesy and overacted. I never cared for the voice acting in 2K ball and 2K had some talented sound engineers. Madden's sound work with voice and scripting has not been good at all the past two generations, soooooo... I don't know. We'll see.
