EA Ripped this Straight from CBS' Presentation ... but didn't go far enough.

[Broncos86]

For years, people complain about presentation. EA decides to hook up with the fellas that do the actual graphical assets for the major networks. They implement some nice camera shots and angles. They get a new overlay going. And the response? Accusations and criticism.

I guess it depends on how you slice it......I think the presentation stuff is a major upgrade over what they've had...unfortunately I'll will likely be skipping most of at some point to get to play the game if it's the same every game. I think most people including myself are liking what they see......and some are pointing out what's still lacking....that's fair too. Especially considering that at times it seems to take you to the brink of greatness and then slam the brakes........I think the game looks great overall........but I guess I should "wait until I play it".

Yes, you should. By the way, for future reference...There is a multi-quote button. Use it.

See, I understand that some people skipped passed it [were you on PS2 or XBox?] However, I enjoyed it a lot, along with the Sports center weekly wrap up show. I just wasn't a fan of the post game interview. I also was not a fan of Field Pass in 2k8. I don't like generic voices that say the same old stuff ad hoc... less so when I know what some of these stars actually sound like.

I see "ad hoc" I think "hoc loogie"...

I agree. I think it's a nice start. Instead of complaining about presentation....which they have upgraded.......why not praise them for what they did in franchise mode? I mean, we have only been #####ing about that for years now. They can't do everything.
