Gus Johnson sounds much better, but there seems to be a slight delay still in action vs verbiage.

Commentary strangely sounded better at e3. Did he call Jim Leonhard 'lester' or was that my ears?

When used together with gameplan, it will be great.

I like gameflow, but I dislike the co-ordinator's pointless generic drivel. I'll turn that off

[Fresh Prince]

I'm disappointed in what they did with Gus Johnson. Really disappointed. Why does it sound so out of place?

It would seem what they've done is kept the exact same commentary coding from last year, and simply switched the voices from Hammond to Johnson. Listen to it, it's the exact same structure as last year

I actually kinda miss the radio guy. Can EA still tweak the commentary or is this how it will be when it hits retail?

[KingofOhio]

yea that commentary is attrocious. there's not setting up of plays or any comment until rb makes a move or qb throws the ball let's hope the commentary is not final retail version, but since it's EA im sure it is. Really EA how do you F*** up Gus Johnson?? And it still amazes me that im waiting what now at least 5 or 6 years for onwer mode on next gen?? and really i gotta wait till next year to get a franchise mode revamp? so instead of working on that you get gus johnson and spend plenty of time and resources on making the commentary worse?? Bravo EA, BRAVO you truly have outdone yourselves......

[footballdude1971]

Commentary is awful. Game play so and boring...

It's rough. I think some has changed to allow the coordinator to talk and not get mixed in with Gus. Overall the presentation doesn't seem to have an identity. You see the NFL teams but you don't have this sense that it's an NFL production.

I was thinking a real broadcast feel would have the NFL disclaimer at the beginning and end with a disclaimer at the end. That may sound silly, but building it right from the beginning would set things up nicely. "the following is a presentation of the National Football League..." and then go right into something like, "Hello everyone and welcome to today's matchup between the Miami Dolphins and the New York Jets. We welcome you to Dolphin stadium, and now let's go to Gus Johnson and Chris Collinsworth for today's game."

The commentary needs to commentate. Things are happening and there should be someone there to respond to it. Right now it feels like they "got Gus Johnson" and that's it.

I was dumbfounded when I heard that commentary and I'm glad others here agree. I think the problem is that Gus talks like everything is exciting. I remember watching an interview with him a few months ago where he was talking how much passion he put into the game. The passion shows....just too much if you ask me.
