Worst Commentary ina game ever!

[docolla]

In my game last night they were calling Jon Beason Julio Jones, kinda funny at first, then it kept happening all game. Very annoying.

They won't. But they'll be the first to come out next year if the commentary's like FIFA's ( which is rumored to be the tecnology that'll be used), saying "That was my idea!!! Gimme credit for kicking a$$ in this department!!!"

Lmao...

this really isn't a "commentary" comment, more of a "presentation" issue, but it kind of relates.

My issue, that annoys me is the weather. Honestly....43 Degrees in Green Bay on January 1st? That makes absolutely no sense.

There is a thing called January thaw.

Actually, Wisconsin weathers varies during the winter. I've had it 60 degrees on my birthday on Dec. 1st. Also, I recall exercising at a club a few years in January and noticed the area was experiencing tornado warnings. Sometimes, our Christmas is warmer than Easter.

Anything that can happen, will happen.

triggers are fairly bad too. I cannot say its laziness, but it is an issue. I'd expect better from a game with at leat a million US dollar budget.

The playcall itself is a trigger, so say you run an Iso, and bounce outside, the game will not recognize it because you called an Iso.

This also comes down to how the game is designed. Its my opinion, based on observation, that the field has minimal "zones" therby giving us limited positional animations and more on topic commentary.

Zones, meaning the game recognizes it as a specific part of the field. The easy ones I have recognized are slivers down the sideline and back of the endzone, and inside the 5 yd line going towards the goalline.

Commentary usually isn't a big deal for me, but it really is horrible in '12. You have to go back several years to find something comparable. If this was a new series, the commentary would still be bad. But the fact that this is the flagship series in all of sports video games, and has been around for 20 years is pathetic.

I remember playing Madden about 6 or 7 years ago and complaining about how stupid madden sounded. Now I'm playing Madden 12 and I just shut the commentary off and I just don't want to play it. This game sucks in my opinion, and it's all because of the commentary. It couldn't get any worse than this. I am probably going to trade this game in. I traded last years in because I thought the commentary sucked and just didn't match up to the years before. Like I said, my opinion, one of the worst so far.
