Very different from the way madden typical works, which is triggering canned animation after canned animation to simulate behaviors. I hope a procedural approach slowly grows and replaces the other parts of the game, like catches, db/wr interaction, linemen interactions, etc. I agree it's not perfect, but I think it's a step towards the right solution. As for why they gave it a fancy sounding name, blame their PR department. They don't need to explain how it works, other than from an end-user perspective. I'd be fascinated to see the innards, but they have no reason to show me. As for calling it a technology... I don't care to look up the dictionary definition of technology, but... well, why would you care whether it meets the dictionary definition of a technology anyway? We know what it does, and I think it's a worthy addition.

Pro Tak does not create animation on the fly. That's Euphoria.
