More emotion doesn't equal better commentary

Let's not forget the Gus Johnson experiment in Madden

I hadn't seen that before. It was pretty good. I love the fact that Kruk was interrupted but then resumed his point. Really should be the direction of The Show. If '21 for the PS5 has the same stale, monotonous commentary that it has had since the PS3, I will be extremely disappointed.

Gus Johnson isn't an actor either. Actors are professional at making things seem real.

I would like to see some new announcers. It is a shame they cant have every announcer for the teams. I guess that would cost to much? But H Watney can go

I'm with you on the Heidi sentiment. Awful decision to add her if you ask me.

I use fast play now to keep the cutscene from showing up.
