Hate to be a debbie downer here, but this does nothing for me. Madden has always looked amazing in still shots. Unfortunately, you don't play the game with still photos. When it starts actually moving is when the catastrophe begins. I want to see realistic player movement instead of synchronous reactions and animations, sudden speed warps, silly looking hunch back running and a slew of other sloppy, ridiculous looking interactions. Fool me into thinking these players are alive. You don't need incredible graphics to do that, nor do you need a powerhouse, next generation console. What you need is a talented group of programmers working on the gameplay. We will find out if we have that or not in a couple of months.

I agree 1000 percent until I see a game that actually resemble sunday football my money stays in my pocket

Yep. Nothing burns me more than seeing every players arms and legs moving in sequence as robots down the field.

Give me something natural in animations and I'll be happy to welcome the next-generation.

It was incredible to me at the time on PS2. So I look at it from both angles. I remember being on OS when Madden 2001 dropped. Good times man.

Yup. Madden 01 was awesome. I remember my best friend bought the PS2 before me and had Madden 2001. And he would not open the damn box! He literally let it sit in his house untouched for almost 2 weeks and I bugged him every day to open it up and play. When he finally did it was one of the greatest Madden experiences, we played for hours. Big improvement from Madden 2000 I don't know what that other guy is talking about.

Yeah I found OS around that time. The forums got reset in 2002, that's why most of the OG's join dates are 02.
