Yeah, basically it's confirmation that they're getting back to the basics and showing the attention to detail that Madden has so desperately needed these past 5 years or so.

It's not so much "OOOoOooo purdy graphics" as it is "wow, look at all the basis they covered, these guys really do give a damn!"

No one feature that's been announced... Procedural awareness, WR/DB interaction, QB play, ratings refactor, purdy graphics, hand towels, Superbowl art, etc... no single one factor has anyone all that excited. It's the sum total of all of the above and the knowledge that we're still 4 months away and there's a lot more to come. Being a lot more to come wouldn't be enough of the stuff we've seen wasn't the right stuff (oh oh ah oh oh, oh oh, ah oh).

After five years of David "You guys wouldn't understand" Ortiz, we've got a guy who understands us and is making strides to show us he has some pride and wants to be the best at what he does.

To David Ortiz, we were a tiny, insignificant slice of the market. To Ian and Phil, we're the 1%ers. We may be few, but please us, and you know you've got a classic.
