Phil Frazier ‏@Fillycheze 47m @owengood That footage is clearly 360. My guess is the capture team didnt realize they had to use X1. It was probably pulled for that reason Owen Good ‏@owengood 38m I honestly—hand to God—thought ESPN had screwed up this morning, and used Xbox 360 Madden footage, calling it Xbox One. Details Phil Frazier ‏@Fillycheze @owengood This is not far from reality. EA probably marked it as X1 footage by mistake. Pulled it because it's not. That's 360 for sure. .@Fillycheze But here's Saints-Dolphins, week 4 on ESPN. Description: "Yes, that is next-gen technology at work." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SE3wLTZDtM … Details Phil Frazier ‏@Fillycheze @owengood I dunno. That was added by ESPN. Very possible they thought it was next-gen. Strange that there is no X1 watermark on wk 4 footage

what do they think that we are morons?? the coaches have headsets.

It could be some type of special rendering. Either way, every single animation in that clip was canned animation. Nothing organic at all which is what we are all craving.

Either give us realistic, seamless animations that make physics sense or give us real time physics that look good.

Instead we get a mix of both done poorly.

Let's please stop the 2K/EA discussion, thank you.

First they give us a port of a bad foundation that is Madden current gen. Now they think we are stupid... lol

Wow...

That's the only thing I can say to this is wow. The video was clearly next gen, from the stadium, to the coaches wearing headsets, you could tell it was next gen (Barely)

The company is expanding and making a name for themselves. I don't know if you have seen the casuals comments on the next gen footage but they are as outraged as we the sim community are. NBA 2K is highly regarded amongst fans. At this time a 2K football game would definitely be able to compete with Madden. Back in the day 2K didn't have the name they have now. Times have changed and I would be willing to bet people would jump on the 2K bandwagon. They see what 2K has done for basketball and they are also getting tired of Madden. As a combo that is exactly what 2K football can take advantage of.

2k hoops is undoubtedly cream of the crop. Let's not get crazy with the whole 2k name brand thing though. They BUTCHERED Major League Baseball, and got their hind ends handed to them in the NHL area, so much so they gave up and haven't even tried to compete.

Don't worry guys it was a different build now... LOL... How many builds do they have of this game? Seems like we see a different one each week...

@Fillycheze @owengood Also, it's a different build than current Madden with Trent Richardson having the wrong jersey # and coach mics.
