And I see Aaron Rodgers has unique celebration... I saw in a video, Phillip Rivers under center and he had that odd, half squat half stance thing he does. I am liking what I am seeing and after not buying Madden 11, am getting sooo pumped for Madden 12!

Cam Weber the new GM of EA Football games as of this year, came over from EA Canada so that makes some sense. He worked on FIFA, SSX, and Fight Night.

This isn't true, uniform degradation is dynamic and happens accordingly not just by the quarter or whatever.Some players especially linemen have dirt and paint marks on their elbows, there's all kinds of uniform degradation. I have heard some people say they have seen blood on the Bear's pants, I haven't seen that yet, but I don't doubt it.

Including NCAA?

So we will probably see the huge leaps and bounds in the coming years as a result.

Sidenote: Like in NCAA you know where there was the pre-order from gamestop for pro combat.. Is there anything for Madden 12 that I should know about that I should be doing now? I don't want to start a new thread and to me, this is a 'little thing'

Yeah both NCAA and Madden, also Roy Harvey the former executive producer of NCAA is now the executive producer of Madden, as of Madden 13.

I saw him do it after a TD throw as well. The camera panned back to show it. It was really cool.

It is true. Talking about the helmets getting scuffed, not the dirt stains on unis. The marks on the lids are the same for all, including a chunk out of the one side logo. Takes away a bit from the uniqueness in my eyes and as I said a qb shouldn't have that many helmet dings. That's how I noticed originally that it wasn't dynamic.

I had Greg Olsen make a great diving catch at the sidelines, dragging his feet. He landed on his side and rolled to his back. BEFORE the cutscene, while on his back, he threw his arms up in the air in celebration (catch was for a 1st down).

So many great little details.
