I have been interested in BB ever since the first highlight vid came out. I am still going to buy Madden 11 regardless of how BB does. I still can't believe this game is only like 3 months away from release and this game is 50 bucks(I know Its only 10 dollars but, it matters). I loved this vid though it looked very well done, the RB reaching, gang tackles, the mid air collisions is something I'm going to look forward to seeing. I think I'll enjoy defense more than offense just because, the hits in this game...words just don't do justice in explaining how great they look.

I'm still a bit worried about wrap tackles though, I know this is just the highlight vids that madden pulls on us every year to pump up the hype machine before the real gameplay vids go viral. Does anyone know if the Devs have metioned that big hits don't happen 24/7? I'm wanna believe they don't but, the hits are so spectacular that I'm getting a bit worried. To many big hits isn't going to be a make or break because, madden there's a big hit at least once every series. At least the tackles will be different every time even if there are constantly big hits.
You know what I would guess? That if you're moving slowly (ie taking a bad angle and having to adjust, or only moving latteraly and basically 'catching' the runner) you will see non-big-hit tackles. The tackles are based on weight/momentum/speed etc...so someone tackling moving slowly might result in a more flakey tackle.
