Yeah...I think people are way ahead of themselves over this. If history is any indicator, it takes EA at least three years to work out the bugs of anything they implement if they don't rip it out before then. I'm excited about the news but I'm waiting till I play it before I spring wood. There are way too many unknowns at this point but at least EA is starting to listen for the first time in probably 10 years. So that's good sign.

Dude... Connected Careers? Infinity Engine? New passing trajectories and new catches?

All I need is for NBA 2K13 to be on point... and this could be the best year in sports gaming EVER!

EDIT: Not to mention all the new "Smartglass" stuff for the 360... being able to create plays on the fly for Madden, Kinect capabilities... man oh man...

When I saw the Joe Montana Kinect demo nothing really jumped out; still not feeling how the game animates in the brief snippets. But that they seem to have been able to remove a good amount of animation clipping and will add a more impactful tackles deserves praise.

not impressed...

RTP was never big on my list of things.... i hope it works fine i hope it helps WR/DB interactions...

i would have gladly taken team tendencies/coach profiles over this anyday....

sheesh some people will never be happy. I mean come on if it is what they make it out to be then it's the biggest change to madden this generation,add pass trajectories, over 400 catch animations, elimination of psych dbs, the face the ball integration, connected careers and improved graphics/ progressive lighting. That's pretty good progress if you ask me. TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!!!

Really?? Sorry but no, rtp is a core gamplay change, team tendencies means nothing if guy's are warping all over the place without regard to physics.

What's funny about this is that it's what I first thought this secret announcement would be but then I saw no evidence of rtp in the earlier vids and started thinkin it would be stupidly hyped, gimmicky motion gaming.
THEN I thought that those earlier vids were just a front after seeing the new NHL stuff becuz NHL AND FIFA were getting too far ahead of Madden and....well, too much to break down. Let's mind was doing a lot of math regarding this big gameplay announcement, before hand.
