Comparison to Madden 10 (Clips)

[Dax(FlowLyfe)]

Usually I'm one of the people who complain Madden & NCAA are cookie cutter molds of previous years games with small addition's like a lot of people.

I even rolled my eyes when EA promoted duel stick controls, the lighting and Locomotion being this years big features for Madden and NCAA.

Just compare these two clips (both mine) and notice how huge of a change Locomotion, duel sticks and lighting is... damn.

Yup, both locomotion and lighting are massive jumps for the series. I never knew lighting could make such a difference. Just with the lighting changes it makes for the biggest leap in graphics this generation. Also, watching these new locomotion videos and looking at the M10 vid it is almost embarassing they made us play with that garbage from 06-10. No wonder I have disliked the game so much on this gen.

Edit: This isn't even including the new blocking AI. As someone who loves to run the football that may be the biggest addition to me...

Huge? Still terrible. The animations go from atrocious to bad, an improvement but still a long way to go.
