Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

So that means:

Refs
Chain gangs
Injury cart?
Halftime show
Gamebreaks?
Tony Kornheiser talking about Brett Favre or TO instead of talking about the game he's currently commentating for?

And 65,000 waving Terrible Towels in Heinz Field in the playoffs?

"Everything you see on Sunday, see it in Madden NFL"

That's a very bold statement. I hope guys are ready to live up to that because you just put an imense amount of pressure on your shoulders. Madden fans will be looking for:

Handwarmers, towels, all facemasks, etc
Chain Gang
True playoff atmosphere, and crowd noise in general
Commentary with more emotion
Drastically improved presentation
Realistic animations, no more guys running around like robots and androids
Most importantly Signature Animations!!!!

I'm beyond hype now, can't wait for the draft to see some screens.

Maybe all that stuff will make its way in eventually, but if your expecting everything under the sun in 1 year...your setting yourself up for disappointment.

Mother f***ing Ian, you freaking rule man. Through out your time at the OS, you've been a very nice professional guy. Through you, it really does seem like this year's team is very passioniate. If everyone on the team shares the same love of the game you've shown, i can not wait to see what 10 will play and look like.

I personally enjoyed 09 a lot and thought of skipping 10 and waiting for 11, but the way your talking now, i'm hyped. Hopefully you guys can get some serious insightful feedback and not the typical "that sucks" kind of feedback that most gamers are know for.

However with you saying "Everything you see on Sunday, see it in Madden NFL" is sort of a BIG statement. For your sake, i really hope so. What i think most people are going to harp on is the presentation. This is the SuperBowl we're all going to be watching. Hopefully this was the first clue into how the presenation will work in 10.

Having those two guys you mentioned on the Franchise side of things exicited me a lot. I know they won't be able to reinvent t he franchise in Madden in just a year, but i can't wait to see what they will do with it, it's been barely touched these last 3 years.

This year looks like it's going to be another good gaming year.

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

^^^ I actually think we will see all that and much more. (Minus maybe the handwarmers and towels Haha) This seems to be a very talented and passionate team. Also, Ian said it is a big team so obviously they are prepared for a MAJOR overhaul which Madden has absolutely needed for a long time.

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

Itd be sweet if we got some sort of early look at half time presentation this sunday

[Steve_OS]

Josh Looman for Madden Franchise. That is all I needed to know. The other stuff is just icing on the cake. Congrats Josh!

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

Wow, this really takes the "It's in the game" slogan and ups the ante. *Everything* we see on Sunday? neato

Maybe this will finally mean hot cheerleaders in an NFL game, I definitely saw some of those.

Seriously though, the franchise stuff sounds exciting. Can't wait to hear what detail we're getting into here. Honestly, just clever CPU team management AI and stuff like realistic progression and regression would be sweet.

Ian, I know you're not a PC guy but, I'm just saying, it would be mighty swell if EA moved on confirming 2010's status for PC quickly this year, even if it's not coming.

Re: [EXCLUSIVE] Madden NFL 10 News!

Man i can't wait for this game to come out, but first i'm gonna be "IN TUNE" with madden 09 and my new xbox 360 tomorrrow..."I HOPE" but rest assured i will have "Madden 10" in my possession as well no matter what. IAN YOU AND YOUR TEAM ROCK!!!

Minus the handwamers etc, I don't think what I listed is expecting too much, I mean, this is Maddden 2010 were talking here.

[SHAKYR]

I haven't bought a Madden game in a long time(2 or 3 years) I'm very excited for this one.
