I just saw that they redid the grass for madden 13,I think it looked better in madden 12, the new grass in 13 looks like old ps2 days, check out these pics.

I think the M13 grass is far more photo realistic up close like it should be. It seems in M12 they were using far away photo shots of the grass to depict it up close too maybe.

Here are some real photos of Fedex Field.

One look likes M13, the first with lighter grass, the other like M12, so idk which is better but some people did complain about the color of the grass didn't look real in M12. Maybe they will chime in.

At first I did feel like the field did look a bit too much like a pool table; but I have seen some distance shots (like the ones Big Fn Deal posted) that show similar color to the photos depicted for M13, however, I think the majority of those pictures were for artificial turf.

For example, I don't think Soldier Field would EVER look anything like that M13 pic.

I'm really waiting for them to release pics of field degradation, which is something they aluded to in the presentation blog. It is supposed to be a great complement to this new field texture.

So as it seems quite trendy these days... LET'S WAIT AND SEE

the lighter green with m13 looks better. Also up close to the field the blades of grass seem to look much better too. I think HDR lighting will also make the grass shimmer more realistically under certain scenarios, bringing out more color and vibrancy,etc.

Just to add to Big FN Deal's pics, I spent too much time trying to find an angle closer to that in the Madden 13 pics.

That definitely looks more like the M13 pic, it might have a lot to do with the fact that it was the 1st game of the season and the field was really taken care of too look like that :P

Crowd has a lot less yellow in the Madden 13 pic too, maybe they did touch up the crowd just a little. I also heard that Madden 13 will have better field degradation so maybe the field will look like that week one but as the season progresses it will look less and less like a "pool table".
