Madden NFL 11 and Madden NFL 10 Screenshot Comparison: Philip Rivers

This post right here just show how far camera works goes in making presentation and graphics look good.

This is brilliant. It's exactly what I want to see and can only hope Ian is lurking here somewhere.

Yep. This is it. Very nice shots.

If they could do that and have new post-play player reactions like you pointed out (and I hate to say this again but the reactions/movements are terrible right now), then this very big missing piece would finally come together. They just can't save the post-play animations in the game now. They're just bad, they have to be scrapped, new animations must be made. I mean, after 5 seasons I don't see why we have the same post-play reactions anyway. Advancements should've been happening here every season.

The post-play animations need to be more intelligent and tied to situations, because the last thing I'd want to see is a great camera shot of a player celebrating a 1-yard loss like we sometimes get now (minus the great shot of course). I'd also like to see celebrating tied to a rating (even a hidden one will do), because seeing players who never go nuts in real life do it in Madden is just another one of those things that affects authenticity in a negative way.

I really hope Tiburon sees these posts.

I'm not holding my breath on better pre/post actions. Tiburon seems to look past this area (and maybe justifiably so as most gamers could probably care less).

But to think the QB would still be sprinting to the LOS if we didn't speak up a year ago, and it's kind of discouraging to think we'll see improvement here.

Equally discouraging is to think about how there was emphasis on presentation last year, and there's still so much left to be desired. I'm hoping M10's presentation was a byproduct of having to address so many other areas and not being able to place major emphasis on the broadcast element. But I hate that I have to press pause to see some of the pertinent stat information.

It looks cool, but I don't play the game that way. I appericiate the effort though. I think NCAA will be better.

Anyone notice how the the Madden 10 picture has the helmet shadowing river's face and Madden 11 has his face with no shadows? I don't know if they were playing on the same temperature or not, but if they were....smh

Focus on the GMAEPLAY EA...The graphics have never really ever been the problem

The lighting changes (as slight as it is) are nice.

Not sure what's considered art, but I wish this effort would have gone into sidelines & crowds. The players already looked great.

But I'm with the folks that say leave the graphics alone. I know, I know, different folks work on different aspects of the game. Well, reassign the art folks to gameplay and KIM.

And how is that relevant in a screenshot comparison? smh

I never said it was relevant. I was just answering your question of who would know about gameplay and I gave you a definitive answer. smh
