Exactly. Let's focus on what's being presented to us, guys. If you, as a poster, cannot do this and address what's in front of you, just don't post at all and save it for later. The "RAA, ME ANGRY" stuff is just so old at this point.

Promising start, but this isn't the meat of the game for most of us.

Sights and Sounds doesn't sell me on the game, but it certainly doesn't hurt their chances either.

What was cool is that they were open to taking sound in a new direction. I think that will make a big difference in the game.

I hope they put as much (and more) effort into gameplay and dynasty & recruiting. Looking forward to hearing about the "meat" of the game!

Good post man, people need to get a grip.

Inductive reasoning.

Hume's got a great critique of it, but it's never failed me before...

Definitely understand and feel what you're saying, but seeing all this stuff for so long, there has never been a huge difference in what we see early in these type of videos, and what we see later. I definitely agree that we should wait until the 17th, but I can't blame people for being disappointed or skeptical.

Exactly...I can speak for myself in saying that I've been following this franchise and the Madden franchise since the first were created (late 80's I believe). And more specifically over the last 10 years of pre-release internet videos and you're exactly right, if it's the videos, it's in the game. I haven't been pleasantly surprised once on next gen and I probably won't be again. It's like I have "battered wife syndrome"...I've convinced myself that EA will change and things will be better next time so I keep coming back only to take another back hand to the chops from EA.

A huge "meh" Was this supposed to get us excited?

Sure, the lighting/textures will look nice & the crowds might sound better, but the main points here being motion blur (is this need for speed?) and USC Song Girls does not bode well. Where is the improvement on ESPN? Halftime anything? Situational crowd sounds? More info on how Kirk/Nessler will be better? And how many years are they gonna talk about dynamic lighting?


I realize it's "early" but lets look at this:

• Running animations are still really, really bad
• I'm guessing no new cleats/equipment
• The football, from what I can see is still gigantic
• Sidelines have not been touched
• Player models are still huge/bulky

Motion Blur lol

It's how it usually goes. They throw a fresh coat of paint on top and everything goes gaga. Then when the paint starts to peel we see the final product. The same game since 2010 lol.

When the announcer announced the score, it still sounded very robotic.
