Why put all that work in to Tuck's mask then just throw a basic one on Lott.

This thread comes down to THIS post I quoted here.

People want their cake and to eat it too.

You can't please everybody. Some like it and some don't. I personally don't care what his facemask or Jersey looks like as long as he's in the game.....

I have to admit - I agree with my Bengals brethren @Senator Palmer.

Maybe the reason why I could care less that they put "Legends" in the game is because they aren't 100% authentic. Would it be cool to play with a guy rocking' the 1981 shoulder pads and helmet (with the three-bar face ask)? ABSOLUTELY!!!

Is it cool playing with "Ronnie Lott" that is wearing a new jersey and all the standard new equipment? Eh, not so much. If I want to do that I'll just create myself.

One of my favorite players of all-time. The wrong facemask alone, is why the lack of editing is going to kill me. Only if EA knew what the little things were. 2K basketball with their legends feature is down-right outstanding. Only if, only if...

They actually did put in a lot of old school equipment, Ronnie Lott's facemask is still around today and still used.

I think he might be talking about this:

I am just glad they look a LOT better than Madden 12's MUT legends. Those were a joke.

I hope you guys finally get Justin Smith's face in the game.
