    All 32 Madden 09 Stadiums in Screenshots

    EA are clearly focusing on improving the overall presentation of Madden this year. One area that has spawned a lot of positive feedback is the pre-game introductions that feature outside shots of the stadium. We've taken advantage of our Beta build and uploaded screenshots of all 32 Stadiums.

    So instead of focusing on a particular team today we instead present you with screenshots of all 32 NFL stadiums from Madden 09.

    only gripes I have are : Giant steve McNair Photo on front of LP Field, I mean this is new so its not like they ported this from 4 years ago or something so thats uncalled for. And the only other thing is how they used the template. I mean even the 4 birds in the top left are at every stadium so while each stadium looks different the environments are all the same.

    Other than that, its new, its cool, better than what we had so I'll take it.

    Steve Mcnair? really guys? come on your better than that.

      First, the stadium shots look very good. They are graphically well done.

      Having said that, personally, they don't do much for me. A quick shot of the stadium before the game? That's alot of resources (I'm assuming) that EA put into something that doesn't seem like too big a deal. Once you see the stadium, that's it. It's then all about what happens inside the stadium and I would have rather seen those same resources spend time creating more sideline interraction, better injury cutscenes, more elaborate halftime shows, post game shows, additional camera angles...stuff like that. Things we've actually asked for the last couple years.
      Kinda like The Ring concept last year, I guess. Those resources should have been pointed elsewhere.

          It's cool, but not needed or anything. I noticed immediately the same crazy fans were driving their vehicles in front of every stadium when the pics were taken! They must work for EA or something.

            it looks good but i think the Carolina stadium is inaccurate because their are no parking lots outside of the stadium...normally in downtown Charlotte you have to park in parking lots further down the street like on tryon and trade roads which is really a pain because charlotte is often times busy.

                I think the front part of the stadium with the lot is the same for each stadium. And by think, I mean I can see it, they're all the same.

                  You think correctly.....I think we all noticed that by the 3rd shot. I know it is very nitpicky but if you can get the stuff BEHIND the stadium fairly correct why have U.S highway 1 and a generic parking lot in fron of al of them?

                  I just hope that while these outside shots of the stadium look really nice, that the time spent on these does not take away from the IMPORTANT aspects of the game.

                  Icing on an unfinished cake......... every year.

                    All of them look good - Not complaining at any effort to up the presentation. However, what is with the freeway in front of every stadium? I have been to a few of these and know there is not a freeway in front of them. Also, seems as though the artists got mixed up in Phoenix and Houston's skylines - Houston is right, but Phoenix is the same as ours for some reason, I saw the Texaco builiding in Phoenix and was like what? They will probably fix that before release...

                      Cowboys stadium is all wrong! I stay 10 minutes from it and have season tickets every year! That stadium has never ever looked like that!

                        Soldier Field looks pretty accurate at a glance, but it is definitely not correctly positioned relative to the Sears Tower.

                          While these may not be perfect, (the freeways and parking lots and such are a little repetitive) It is definitly a step in the right direction. I think, especially comapred to last year, that this intro will do wonders for the overall atmosphere and pregame, It would be the perfect broadcast set up to lead into some crowd shots or shots of the star players. It really sets the tone tho, for an nfl game, with all of the fans and gigantic beautiful stadiums. Look how it shows off the weather and night games as well, i think if they continue to build off of this its a step in the right direction.
