Screen shot is fantastic. But I would have to say you guys get a little bit to excited over ONE screenshot. Lets calm down a little bit and wait until we see the game in action from our playing angle, or atleast wait until we get more screenshots.

64 pages for one screenshot, in March, is insane. Possibly in a good way...

I don't see the problem in people getting excited. We finally have refs and chain gang and they have added hand towels, superbowl patches/endzones, field blur etc.

There's a lot to be happy about

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.

^^Exactly. Great great post.

You know madden has always had problems when transition to new consoles. PS1 was probably the worst, this current one being the second worst, and the PS2 transition being the best due to the graphical leap. David Ortiz had his heart in the right place but he just wasn't getting Madden back on track fast enough and not to sound harsh... I'm really glad that he is gone.

LOL, I read multiple times about David Ortiz and thought yu guys had it about Big Papi. I wondered how that would tie into an NFL game.

Lo and behold, Google came to the rescue!

Is David Ortiz the guy we have to thank for just adding a truck stick for one year, new uniforms the next, add a single new touchdown animation the following one and rehash the same game (plus roster updates) for sooo long? Good riddance IMO.

Hopefully Ian listens to what we gamers want and actually delivers a game we want to play.

Oh, and Ian, add selectable touchdown animations in the vein of PES (about 2, which would pop up much more frequently than random ones. random ones should still be done by the touchdown guy, and their frequency could be excellently controlled with a slider. For instance, Barry Sanders and LaDainian would very rarely, if ever, celebrate) in your Create-A-Player/ Edit Player feature.

[Avii]

I add emphasis on random ones, because for example Wes Welker got fined for making a Snow Angel, which could be considered a random touchdown animation based on his current scenario (a game played in snow) rather than that he would always make snow angels upon making touchdowns. So a slider to determine frequency of random touchdown animations, rather than the one or two trademark ones per player, is an excellent way to control them. Player who makes a lot of random ones (Say, TO or Chad Johnson etc) simply get their two (or even absolutely none) trademark ones aside with a 100% on the random slider, making their celebrations truly random.

Please consider this seriously.

I would rather people get a bit too excited than a bit too underwhelmed.

People are free to constructively criticize the game, I don't see why people can't get a bit excited with a screen shot.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Screenshot (Peter Moore Blog)

It is about time we get towels!!! I know it seems like a small addition but I think the little things like towels are going to add so much to this game.

You have no idea how cool this is...My brother has yet to buy a next gen system and every year he asks me, do they have towels yet? Well I showed him this today and he about sh!t his pants. He is now planning on buying a next gen system...all for towels! Hey everyone..the towels are in, let the fun begin!

No disrespect...and I'm happy to see all the new additions but what is this weird fixation with Hand Towels???...Also...what exactly will a hand towel add to the game???

I mean are guys really gonna be thinking "hey look at how that hand towel flaps in the wind"...WOW!!!

I do know the next complaint will be..."Hey, the hand towels don't animate properly"...or "Hey Big Ben doesn't wear his hand towel on the left...he always wears it in the middle...WTF!!!"

I'm the first to admit that the little things are important but some of you guys go off the deep end with the minuscule complaints...Some of you will never be happy...Legs are too big...legs are too small, shoulder pads too big, shoulder pads too small...Facemasks grey but not the right color gray, socks too white etc...

Couldn't have said it better myself. The little details adds to the overall package. The line about the 1%ers is very true, I am surprised I didn't think about it first, lol.
