God is good to hear SIM is coming back to Madden. This is one of the reason I had stop playing Madden for 4years, the game played to unrealistic and I hated playing against people because everyone used cheese and wack gameplay like those guys on those Madden nation tournament shows. Also the other major factor is improvement to the passing game. Finally there is more touch passing back in the game and realistic passing. Can't lie so far Madden is going in the right direction.

So he's not specifically stating that these apply to NCAA. I'd be willing to bet they're doing their own version of the 40 time stuff, not just taking Madden's version. The two games should feel different, and there should be a greater range of fast-slow in NCAA.

I can see that, but don't you think that should really be accomplished with ratings, rather than a different speed curve?

i think madden should have a college all star game played during the off season of franshise mode right before the draft and more player workouts. it would be really cool if the players to draft were players we know

Can we get merriman's light's out dance after a sack plz plz plz.

As a fan of the chargers this is greatly important to me to have the feeling of detail and realism to know that you can do it in the game after a sack in the back field.

I hate that in 09 you have to get lucky with a interception with merriman and then have to get a lucky sprint all the way down field and do the soulja boy.

I don't want to play with my team the whole game and watch people steal his move when i can't do it after a sack its not fair. do you know how frustrating it is to be losing and everytime they get a touchdown they bust out his move???

PLZ EA I would greatly appreciate it if we could get this in the game b/c you said "you see it on sunday you see it in the game"

On sunday's after merriman gets a sack he does his dance plz put this in the game...This is not a demand its just a request from a loyal fan.

It doesn't have to be a every down thing maybe just a 3rd and 4th down thing. you know when its a important stop, b/c its usually apart of watching the chargers game on sunday's.

Yes, as a Redskins fan I could not ask this any different. Please add his move, I don't care about Clinton Portis, Laron Landry, London Fletcher, or any other Redskin's celebration. Just please get Merriman's in there for us all!

AnyGivenSunday talked about Merriman's lights outdance, adn hat reminds me of not too recently when Bryant Young of my 49es would do the home run swing after a sack, that he stole from Niel Smith by the way. It was nice to have post play player specific celebrations after big plays.

I would aslo ask you work on when players "celbrate" after a play. How many times have I ran the ball for 2 yards with Frank Gone adn he gets up and does the head nod and tough guy rotine to celebrate a 2 yard gain to set up 2ed and 8 or 3rd and 6? Seriously, you got two yards and it wasn't a first down... grow up.

I also haven't sceen the calssic "First down" mimic players will do of the official first down signal from years past.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Blog: Creating 'Sim-Style' Gameplay

I have seen the first down move every now and then when they zoom up on a reciever after a catch for a first down, what sucks is that I don't see Roy Williams do it, and he does it after EVERY single first down, I'd rather see these as cutscenes honestly from a broadcast camera so they look beautiful and fluid just like watching them on tv.



Also if I recall the lights out dance was stopped by merriman at the end of the 07 season if I recall, I don't know why you guys want it in the game so bad when he said he wasn't going to do it anymore.

Merriman was quoted as saying: Some people who have been around the game a long time say it's immature, you shouldn t do it. That's their opinion. I'm Shawne Merriman. I'm going to act the way I act. But right now I feel like it s important for me to help pull this thing together. Then I can go back to being myself. There's nothing wrong with it. Would someone tell Jordan to put his tongue in going to the hoop? Would someone tell Tiger to not do his fist pump after a putt? It's their thing. It's not being boastful. (Not doing the dance) is just something I feel is important to do right now. I certainly won t miss the celebration, as it had become just one of a list of sack dances, promoting the sacker. It wasn t Neil Smith's home run ...


Maybe he will stop or maybe won't but I know I would be kinda upset if he started doing it again, and it didn't wind up in the game. He stopped close to the end so he did it most of the season. So I think it should at least be in this game just in case, and if he doesn't do it during the 2009 season then its done with they can take it out.

Go to youtube and search apexisfree . he has the best and smartest ideas for madden football and also basketball videogames. Enough said.

I was wondering. I see the Super Bowl has been upgraded as far a presentation is concerned. Are the playoffs also represented in this presentation niche, are the Championship games?

Thank you for opening up the Madden development this year EA. As a madden player for 15 years it is so much fun for me to think the fans truly have a voice in this game, because Madden really belongs to all of us. Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in. Ian I think you might have the greatest job in the world.
